Access Access to Hall 3 is via Bay A; access to Hall 4 is via a lift from Bay B. The entrances to both loading bays are on Cambridge Street. Please note that traffic wardens operate along Cambridge Street.

Damage and Loss Neither the organizers, nor the ICC, accept any responsibility for damage or loss of any properties introduced by the exhibitors or their agents/contractors. Exhibitors are especially warned that the exhibits are the sole responsibility of the exhibitors to whom they belong. Exhibitors should affect their own insurance against all risks. The strongest possible precautions against theft should be taken at all times.

Demonstrations Exhibitors intending to use televisions or any other potentially loud appliances for stand demonstrations or who wish to hold live demonstrations must contact the organizers for approval at least one month prior to the show to gain written permission.

Dilapidation You are reminded that you will be charged for making good any damage to the hall or stand area, including the floor, caused by your staff or contractors. All tape used to secure carpets must be removed at the end of the exhibition. Under no circumstances can stand construction, graphics, displays, etc. be attached to the fabric of the building.

Evacuation Procedures In the event of an emergency evacuation please follow the instructions of ICC Hosts and Fire Marshals (identified by high visibility jackets). You will be directed to the assembly point in Civic Centre Estate. If it becomes necessary to evacuate the building, the following message will be broadcast: “Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please. We must ask you to leave the building by the nearest exit as quickly as possible. Do not use the lifts and do not stop to collect personal belongings.”

Fabrics Please ensure that all fabrics used on stands have the relevant fire proofing solutions. It is a requirement that all drapes brought into the venue conform to BS 5867 Specification for Fabrics for Curtains and Drapes.

Fire Precautions Fire extinguishers are located at convenient points around the Hall. All materials used for the interiors of stands must be thoroughly fireproofed or be non-combustible to the satisfaction of the local authority. Failure to do so may result in the removal of all offending fittings. Any person discovering a fire should immediately notify a member of ICC staff or operate a break glass unit.

Gangways The gangways used in this venue are the minimum permissible by law and have been subject to approval by the Local Authority. Under no circumstances will exhibits, stand dressing, tables and chairs, etc. be allowed to encroach into the gangways. All exhibits must be kept inside your space at all times.

BIRMINGHAM 2019

Height Limit A height limit of 4 metres must not be exceeded at the ICC. This limit includes the overall height of the stand-fitting, any branding and all raised platforms as measured from the hall floor. Stands wishing to exceed this height or to erect a double decker stand must supply the ICC with full drawings and structural calculations by a minimum of one month prior to the event, for approval by Birmingham City Council. Stands over 4m coming onto site without approval will not be permitted to be built. The minimum height for dividing walls is 2.5m. The height from floor to ceiling under the gallery of Hall 3 is 3.4m.

Internet The delegate wifi is only available for personal use (mails, texting, application) and not for streaming or presentation purposes. For any presentation purpose internet requirement, please get in touch with organizing secretariat and order your exclusive internet.

Noise The use of microphones, videos or music is permitted, but the volume must not be such as to cause any annoyance to other exhibitors. The organisers reserve the right to prohibit their use if, in the organisers’ opinion, any annoyance is being caused and remove the offending equipment and/or exhibitor from the Hall.

Parking & How to get here There are numerous local car parks within a 5 minute walk including the Arena Birmingham, formerly the NIA and Brindleyplace car parks which are both next door to the venue. Links below Arena Birmingham- http://www.arenabham.co.uk/venue-info/daily-parking Q- Park Brindley place – http://www.q-park.co.uk/parking/birmingham/q-park-brindleyplace Paradise Circus Car park - https://www.birmingham.gov.uk/directory_record/6680/paradise_circus_multi-storey_car_park The link below will give directions on how to get here with the latest travel updates http://www.theicc.co.uk/find-us/ Disabled access parking spaces can be pre-booked by calling +44 (0)121 644 7178 with the blue badge details.

Power Power requirements should be confirmed to the exhibition organiser prior to the event. Additional power will not be available once the exhibition has been built. Any requirements for 24-hour power should be made clear to the event organiser.

Security The organisers will provide general security within the exhibition halls. However, the individual security of the stands and exhibits lies within the responsibility of each exhibitor. Valuables should be locked away overnight and additional care should be taken during exhibition build and breakdown. During the pull-out period extra care must be taken, as this is a vulnerable time. In the unlikely event of a theft, please report to the organisers’ office immediately.

Security Advice Exhibitors are warned not to leave valuables unattended on their stands whether during the build-up, open or breakdown periods. Special care should be taken of mobile phones as these can be easily misplaced or stolen. Do not leave your stand unattended at any time. No exhibits may be removed from the hall during build-up or the open days of the show without obtaining a pass out authorisation from the organisers’ office. Passes should be worn at all times by both exhibitors and contractors.
