By Road: SATNAV – B40 1NT

Located bang in the middle of the UK’s motorway network, jumping in the car is the ideal way to get to the NEC.

  1. You’ll find us clearly signposted from all motorways and major routes including the M42, M40 and M6 – just pop B40 1NT in your sat nav.
  2. When you arrive at the NEC don’t follow your satnav anymore, look out for the show name you’re visiting on our signs.
  3. Then, simply jump on our free shuttle bus or take a leisurely stroll along our signposted footpaths.

Keep up to date with what’s happening on the roads – plan your journey in advance and find out the latest traffic information when you’re here, available on Highways England’s website.
