Exhibition Stands at ICC Birmingham
The ICC is a city-centre conference venue rather than an exhibition hall, and that single fact changes almost everything about building there.

Why ICC Birmingham is different
Access is the defining constraint. A city-centre building on Centenary Square has nothing like the loading capacity of a purpose-built exhibition hall, and everything has to come in through restricted routes on a schedule that shares the building with other events.
That favours builds designed to be carried in and assembled in sections rather than trucked to the stand position. Conference sets, modular stands and staging suit the venue; large bespoke structures need planning around the access rather than the floor plan.
No competitor we found runs a dedicated page for this venue, despite it being one of Birmingham's main conference locations.
What we build at ICC Birmingham
Which route suits you depends mainly on how often you exhibit rather than on budget alone.

Health, safety and organiser approval
Stand height, structural sign-off, rigging and the deadline for risk assessments and method statements are set by the individual show, not by the venue alone. Last year's rules cannot be assumed to still apply.
We work from the exhibitor manual for your specific show, produce the documentation it requires, and submit it to the organiser within their deadline.
