Edgbaston Stadium named as one of top 50 meeting venues in Europe
Edgbaston Stadium, home to Warwickshire County Cricket Club, has been named as one of the Top 50 Meeting Venues in Europe by Venue Directory.
Ranked 49th out of 44,000 venues across the UK and Europe in the inaugural list of best meeting venues from Venue Directory, the stadium is the only Midlands sporting venue to be announced as part of the list, recognising its exceptional venue credentials and partnership-first approach.
The ranking secures Edgbaston Stadium’s coveted spot on the globally recognised ‘Top 50 Meeting Venues’ list on the Venue Directory platforms.
Its inclusion reflects its commitment to delivering exceptional corporate event experiences and exceeding client expectations.
The inaugural list from Cvent-owned Venue Directory ranks top-performing Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) hotels and venues that prioritise planner collaboration to ensure business event success.
“This is reflective of our strong-held commitment to consistently deliver the best guest experience, whether that be through meetings, events or conferences.”
Jason Gutteridge, director of Sales and Operations at Venue Directory, said: “Being included in Venue Directory’s Top 50 Meeting Venues list is a notable recognition that showcases a venue's ability to engage with planners and provide exceptional service standards for MICE and corporate events.
"Attendee expectations are higher than ever, and event organisers, with limited resources, seek collaboration with venues that understand their client needs, offer competitive pricing, demonstrate responsiveness, and foster trusted relationships. Congratulations to Edgbaston Stadium on achieving this remarkable recognition."
Edgbaston Stadium offers a range of eleven event spaces available for conferences, banqueting, meetings and hospitality, catering for up to 800 delegates.
Spaces include the newly-launched, 14,800sqm Edgbaston Plaza - one of the largest outdoor event spaces in Birmingham - which offers more space than both Centenary Square and Victoria Square in the city centre.
For summer events, delegates can also choose Skyline, a brand-new, contemporary roof-top terrace for corporate entertainment and networking.
