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!

Partnering with Britain’s leading Pay As You Go (PAYG) energy provider, we’re sparking a new era from April 2020 as Utilita Arena Birmingham, as we continue to host the world’s most exciting events.

We’re still that same great venue in town, but with an electrifying new name!

As part of the NEC Group, Resorts World Arena and Utilita Arena Birmingham are committed to ensuring that through the work and events we deliver, we are as sustainable as possible. Whether we are looking at energy, waste or food miles, as two of the UK’s leading Arenas we want to limit the impact of our presence on the environment.

That’s why we have Greener Arenas. An all-encompassing sustainability programme that’s constantly growing and adapting to meet the needs of both our changing world and our industry. By looking at ways to make positive change, prevent wastage and ultimately manage our carbon footprint positively, we hope to make a difference.
