Exhibition stand design for Birmingham usually means the NEC, a large campus of linked halls used by many UK trade shows. Because many exhibitors attend several UK shows each year, reusable modular kits are popular here. Studio lets you test one kit on several plot sizes in 3D, then export the drawings for a UK stand builder.
Birmingham
What you get.
One kit, many shows
UK exhibitors often run a yearly calendar of NEC, ExCeL and Manchester events. Designing a kit for your usual plots saves money. See our reusable stands guide.
Plan for the walk
On a campus this large, distance from the door to your plot matters when hand-carrying. Ask how goods reach your hall.
UK paperwork applies
As at other UK venues, expect risk assessments and method statements, plus proof of fire-rated materials on request.
The plot on the floor plan
Enter the width, depth, open sides and the height limit for your Birmingham hall. The concept stays inside them.
One design for every quote
Send Birmingham builders the same plan, elevations and concept quantities, so their prices describe one stand.
Curves, battens and light
AI-composed curved walls, timber battens and LED strips are all shown in 3D before anyone in Birmingham cuts a panel.

Birmingham
Venues, shows and the quote.
Confirm the city, the hall and the height limit in the exhibitor manual for the edition you are entering.
NEC Birmingham
A campus of many linked halls next to Birmingham International station and the airport. Check which hall you are in and where the nearest vehicle door is, since walking distances are long.
ICC Birmingham
A city-centre conference venue, better suited to association events and smaller tabletop stands than to large custom builds.

FAQ
Good to know.
01Is the NEC good for a modular stand?
Yes, especially if you exhibit there often. A kit that fits your common plot sizes can be reused across UK shows.
02Which is closer to the NEC, the airport or the station?
Both sit next to the site. Birmingham International station and the airport are linked to the venue, which helps visiting staff.
03Does Studio export for UK builders?
Yes. It exports a layered DXF in millimetres, an A3 PDF drawing pack and a schedule.
04Can a stand builder build from these designs?
Studio produces dimension-controlled concept designs with plans, elevations and a schedule that are accurate to the 3D model, which is ideal for pitching, quoting and planning. Structure, rigging, electrics, fire safety and venue approvals still need your stand builder and the organiser.
05How much does Studio cost?
Studio runs on credits. Every workspace gets 5 starter credits once. Buy more when you need them: no subscription, no monthly charges and purchased credits never expire. An AI stand design costs 5 credits, a render 5 (8 in 2K) and image to CAD 4. Editing, drawings and exports are free. Top-up packs start at 25 credits for $5.
