The event takes place at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, the UK’s premier exhibition venue. The venue address is NEC Birmingham, North Avenue, Marston Green, Birmingham B40 1NT, United Kingdom.

The NEC offers extensive indoor exhibition space with high ceilings, robust floor loading and excellent logistics. It is centrally located in the heart of the UK and provides a natural meeting point for national and regional visitors. The complex is fully accessible, with step-free access, accessible toilets, mobility assistance and a wide range of on-site services including restaurants, cafes, business lounges and free Wi-Fi.

The venue has its own railway station and direct connection to Birmingham Airport, making it highly accessible for international participants and for visitors travelling from across the Midlands, North and South. The exhibition halls are configured to host co-located events side by side, with clear signage allowing visitors to move between UK property, international property and service provider zones.

From 2027 the Property Investor Show will have its own distinct branding, floorplan and seminar theatre within the larger A Place in the Sun Live event at NEC Birmingham, ensuring that visitors can easily navigate between UK and overseas property opportunities.

How to get there

The NEC is one of the most accessible venues in the United Kingdom, located eight miles east of Birmingham city centre with direct motorway, rail and air connections.

If you are travelling by car, the venue has direct access from Junction 6 of the M42 motorway. From the M6, M40 and M1, you can connect via the M42. The postcode for navigation is B40 1NT. Signage for the NEC is well established on all approach roads.

If you are travelling by train, Birmingham International Railway Station is directly connected to the NEC via a covered walkway. The station is served by Avanti West Coast and West Midlands Trains, with direct services from London, Manchester, Edinburgh and other major cities.

If you are travelling by air, Birmingham Airport is just five minutes away via a free Air-Rail Link that connects the airport terminal to Birmingham International Station and the NEC.

Public transport & parking

Public transport to the NEC is frequent and well integrated with the venue. Trains run regularly to Birmingham International from across the United Kingdom, with the covered walkway providing direct access to the halls. Local buses operated by National Express West Midlands, including routes 900 and X1, connect Birmingham city centre and Coventry to the NEC and airport. National Express coaches also serve Birmingham Airport and Birmingham International Station.

For those driving, the NEC has more than 16,000 parking spaces across several car parks. Parking charges apply and are typically around USD 20 to USD 22 per day for public parking when booked online in advance. Free shuttle buses operate from the more distant car parks to the exhibition halls. Electric vehicle charging points are available in selected car parks, and designated accessible parking bays are located close to hall entrances.
