At NAEC Stoneleigh you get more than 21,000 m² of indoor exhibition space across four main halls, plus over 250 acres of outdoor ground, so you can run a show indoors, outdoors or both on one site. NAEC Stoneleigh sits at Stoneleigh Park, about 6 miles south of Coventry in Warwickshire, and also has a set of conference and meeting rooms. The venue says it handles more than 400 events and over 215,000 visitors a year. Shows held here appear under Kenilworth trade shows, and the venue is one of the UK exhibition venues covered here.
Halls that grow or shrink with your show
You hire only the floor you need, as all four permanently draped halls can be hired singly or linked. Hall 1 joins Hall 2 by a linkway, and Hall 2a adds a further 2,400 m² of open floor that can also run on its own.

Bring heavy kit and vehicles indoors
You can drive vehicles into Hall 1 through its roller shutter doors, and Hall 2 also has roller shutter doors. The venue states there are no weight loading restrictions in either hall, and Hall 2 supports loads of up to 35 kN/m², with at least 8 m clearance to lighting points. If you are planning stand delivery and installation, you order furniture, AV, forklifting, bins, cleaning, health and safety equipment and internet through the venue’s online forms. These are due at least 5 working days before the tenancy period, or 10 working days for hardwired internet. The in-house caterers’ Food to You service brings drinks, food and receptions to your stand.
Room outdoors for demonstrations and big products
On the grounds you get a private road network, camp sites, a 2-mile off-road course, a 4×4 track, the Grand Ring and the all-weather Equine Arena. Race Retro uses the site for a live rally with 120 cars, and the Glamping Show split its space evenly between a hall and an outdoor glamping village. If you are choosing a venue for a product demonstration, you can use this ground for test driving or for products too big to show indoors.
