Venue Information

With its redevelopment completed in October 2009, the reinvigorated LG Arena is a must stop destination on the European Touring Circuit. The former NEC Arena, which was renamed the LG Arena in 2008 after a sponsorship rights deal with LG Electronics, features brand new seating, hospitality, bars, restaurants and other essential customer facilities as well as improved backstage areas. With a more intimate seating configuration the arena provides an outstanding audience experience and continues the legacy that The NEC Arena began when first opening its doors nearly 30 years ago.
