National rail strikes scheduled through March and April

Date Posted 14/03/23

Please be aware that there are rail strikes which have been announced for the 16th, 18th and 30th March, as well as 1st April.

If you were planning to take the train to an NEC event, it is likely there will be disruption.

We would encourage all visitors to plan ahead as your entire journey will likely be severely disrupted. The days after industrial action may also be affected.

Please visit the National Rail Enquiries Journey Planner close to your date of travel to review your options.

​​​​​​​If your route is affected, you may wish to travel via car to the NEC Campus. We have plenty of space, with more than 16,500 well-maintained spaces, as well as a dedicated shuttlebus service to take you to your event. You can book parking in advance at a discounted rate with this link.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
