Arena Central overlooks Centenary Square, one of the city’s key public spaces and home to the Library of Birmingham.

Funding totalling £8 million was secured by the city for a comprehensive redesign and enhancement of the space, which is now complete.

The site’s location on Centenary Square provides access to a number of the city’s key bus routes and the A38 which connects to the UK’s national motorway network. Arena Central is situated adjacent to a Midland Metro stop with the line now complete to Arena Central.

The central location puts Birmingham’s three main railway stations – Moor Street, Snow Hill and New Street – within easy walking distance, with connections available to Birmingham Airport which offers direct flights to over 143 international destinations.
