Resorts World Arena

Resorts World Arena is one of the world’s top entertainment arenas – hosting over 100 shows per year, the venue continues to host world class music, sport, comedy and family events.


Boasting a flexible arena bowl, the venue can be dressed to accommodate intimate academy events for around 4,588 people or hold a total capacity of 15,685.


As well as great live shows, the Arena is all about giving visitors ‘more than just the main event’. Following its £29million redevelopment back in 2009, the venue boasts an innovative pre and post-show entertainment area; Forum Live has gone from strength-to-strength and now hosts everything from acoustic acts and comedians, to dancers and magicians before shows.


It was officially renamed Resorts World Arena on 3 December 2018, the venue has also been known as Genting Arena (January 2015 – December 2018), LG Arena (October 2009 – January 2015), NEC Arena (September 1983-August 2008) and Birmingham International Arena (December 1980 - September 1983).
