These carer tickets can be added for free at checkout.

The NEC has a fleet of mobility equipment available to hire on a first come, first serve basis. We therefore recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

Wheelchairs are available free of charge for blue badge holders and £5 for all other visitors. The number of wheelchairs we have available is limited, so if you’ve got your own, please bring it with you.

Scooters are available for £15 per hire for all visitors.

The NEC has numerous car parks that are more broadly categorised into North, East, South and West with over 20,000 onsite parking spaces. On your arrival at the NEC, traffic officers will direct you to the most convenient parking area for your event, however being such a large site with a number of entrances, it is recommended that you refer to The NEC Site Map before your arrival to avoid adding time to your journey.  The NEC is well sign-posted from the M6 (J4), the M42 (J6), the A45, A446 & M1.

We strongly advise to book pre-paid parking in advance of the Show (up until the night before the Show opens) to secure the best rates at £8, as on the day parking will be charged at £10. This price has been subsidised by Immediate Media. For more information and to book pre-paid parking click here.  If you choose to pay on the day, tickets can be purchased from ticket machines during your visit and presented at the exit of the car park when you leave. 

Disabled parking for any vehicles displaying a blue badge is available and situated close to the halls for easy access. Both standard and disabled pre-paid parking is available. 

Shuttle buses operate between the car parks and the Show. 

For queries regarding parking or feedback, please contact the NEC here.
