Getting to Birmingham
Birmingham is incredibly easy to reach. Right in the centre of England, it’s well-connected by road, rail and air.
The ICC venue is located on Broad Street in the city centre and is surrounded by hotels, restaurants and shops. With more canals than Venice and more parks than Paris, Birmingham is without doubt one of the most interesting and photogenic cities in Europe.
If you are planning on staying for longer, must-see attractions include a Peaky Blinders film locations tour, a visit to Cadburys chocolate factory, the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery, and the Jewellery Quarter.
