About Us

A little about us
Since first opening our doors back in 1991 as the NIA we’ve built our reputation as a versatile and experienced venue, hosting world-class concerts, sporting events, conferences, family shows and much more.
Whether it's 15,800 screaming fans or an intimate, atmospheric once-in-a-lifetime experience, you'll find it here, one of the best places to go in Birmingham.
Home to everything from record breaking sports to Mickey Mouse and friends; from the latest pop sensations to side splitting comedy from some of the world’s best comics, Arena Birmingham is bigger and better than ever bringing you events you won’t want to forget!
