What we supply for events at ICC Birmingham

ICC Birmingham regularly hosts conferences, banquets, awards ceremonies, corporate meetings and reception events. That mix means one order may need several furniture styles at once. A conference can need delegate seating in the main room, poseur tables in the sponsor zone and a bar setup in the evening reception.

For most jobs at ICC Birmingham, the core links sit in Chair Hire, Table Hire, Catering Equipment Hire and Glassware Hire. Exhibitor or organiser spaces often add side furniture and storage support as well.

  • Conference chairs, trestle tables, registration desks and literature tables for delegate areas.
  • Poseur tables, stools, display cabinets and counters for stands and feature areas.
  • Bars, bottle coolers, display fridges and glassware for receptions and lounges.
  • Office furniture, side tables and barriers for organiser control and staff bases.
  • Lounges, stools and side furniture for sponsor, VIP or press spaces.

That is why many venue orders work best as one joined-up package rather than several small lists. Front-of-house furniture, exhibitor furniture, service stock and organiser support all arrive together and can be checked against one schedule on site.


Access and delivery notes

Expo Hire delivers to ICC Birmingham with our own drivers. City-centre access and timed unloading windows matter here. Add room names, stand references, loading notes and a direct site contact to the order before checkout.

Drivers deliver dry hire to the agreed drop point. They do not set the stock up, connect gas equipment or move items up and down stairs. If the venue requires a service lift, loading bay slot, contractor pass or named contact, include that information before delivery day.

Large venue jobs work best when the order notes list the event name, hall or suite, stand number if there is one, access timing and an on-site mobile number. That gives the delivery team what it needs to match the venue schedule.

If the order includes refrigeration, ask for delivery the day before so the units have 6 to 8 hours to pre-cool before service starts. If it includes LPG equipment, a competent person must connect it and the organiser should confirm that the venue allows it.

Jobs for ICC Birmingham are quoted with venue-specific carriage from £100 ex-VAT and a minimum order of £500 ex-VAT.


Typical events at ICC Birmingham

ICC Birmingham works well for conferences, banquets, awards ceremonies, corporate meetings and reception events. That variety is why venue pages like this rarely work with one fixed stock list. The furniture needs to follow the event format, not the building name.

Build day needs registration and stand furniture. Event day needs guest seating, bars or lounges. Breakdown needs a clean collection point. Thinking through those phases early usually produces a better stock list than starting with one flat number of chairs or tables.

If your event at ICC Birmingham needs both public-facing furniture and working back-of-house equipment, split those items by zone on the order. The delivery team can then route the stock more cleanly once it reaches site.


Hire period and ordering

Standard hire runs for 3 days: delivery day, event day and collection day. That suits most venue jobs because it gives you a day to build, a day to trade or host, and a day for collection without trying to squeeze everything into one shift.

Book online at expohire.com once you know the dates, quantities and access notes. The basket shows live stock and pricing. Use the order notes for stand numbers, hall names, loading instructions and on-site contacts so the delivery can follow the venue plan.

Equipment arrives clean and tested. Every hire includes the free Minor Damage Waiver, and Expo Hire delivers across England and Wales. Delivery starts from £40 ex-VAT where venue-specific terms do not apply.

Because this is dry hire, your venue team, exhibitor crew or caterer places the stock in final position after delivery. That gives you full control over the floor plan, but it also means the setup labour and final room dressing need to sit in your schedule.


Ordering

Build the order online at expohire.com once the dates, quantities and venue details are ready. The basket shows live stock and pricing, so you can size the job around the real guest count or room plan rather than a rough estimate.

If you need help with quantities, carriage or specialist equipment, call 0800 910 1100 Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. If the order needs sign-off before payment, use the basket as the base for an internal quote.

Add access notes, room names, hall numbers, stand details or site contacts before checkout.
