Frequently Asked Questions about Trade Shows at NEC Birmingham

How do I book exhibition space at the NEC?

You can book directly through the event organiser of the specific trade show. The NEC itself doesn’t sell space — organisers rent halls and sell booths to exhibitors.

How much does it cost to exhibit at the NEC?

Costs vary depending on the event, stand size, location and services required. The cost of exhibition stands varies depending on your stand’s size, complexity and features.. For reference, small modular stands can start from around £3,000–£5,000, while larger bespoke builds may range from £8,000 and up.

How far in advance should I order my stand for NEC events?

We recommend contacting us at least 8–12 weeks before your event. This gives us enough time to discuss your goals, design a bespoke 3D stand, finalise materials and manage logistics. However, we can sometimes accommodate shorter lead times if required.

Can I reuse or reconfigure my stand at NEC and other venues?

Yes! Our stands are designed with reusability and flexibility in mind. We can reconfigure layouts, update graphics, or expand your stand for different floor plans at future events — saving you money long-term.

Can I hire furniture, AV equipment, lighting, Wi-Fi, etc, on-site?

Yes. You can hire all the stand essentials via the event organiser or third-party suppliers like Plus Exhibition. You must order power, light and internet through the NEC’s official services. We’ll guide you through this process or handle it on your behalf as part of our project management service. Wi-Fi is available, but hardwired internet is recommended for reliability.

Can you help me with NEC’s technical requirements and exhibit regulations?

Yes. We ensure your stand meets all NEC safety, accessibility, and design regulations, including risk assessments, health & safety declarations, and construction guidelines.

What support do you offer during and after the NEC show?

You’ll have a dedicated project manager throughout the process. We also offer on-site support during the show, and after the event, we can store your stand components and help with updates or logistics for your next exhibition.

How can I attract more visitors to my stand?

Stand out with engaging displays like LED video walls, interactive touchscreens, giveaways and live demos. Promote your presence online ahead of time.
