How a Birmingham booking works

Birmingham Airport is a direct flight of about an hour and a quarter from Düsseldorf, and the NEC sits beside it and beside Birmingham International station. We travel from Essen/Düsseldorf the day before your first shooting day with our own equipment and are on your stand before the doors open.

Travel and hotel are quoted once per trip and shared between exhibitors who book the same show week; for a two- or three-day booking the travel share is a small part of the total. The packages are the same fixed euro prices as in Germany, €990, €1,490 and €1,990. The United Kingdom is outside the EU, so UK companies are invoiced without German VAT; EU companies with a VAT ID receive a reverse-charge invoice. On the stand we work in English; interviews and subtitles are also available in German, Arabic and Persian.

The NEC, the ICC and the Birmingham calendar

The NEC Birmingham is the largest exhibition venue in the United Kingdom, a complex of interconnected halls with its own station, hotels and lakeside walkways. The calendar is dense: Spring Fair in February and Autumn Fair in September for retail, gift and home, Autosport International in January, MACH in April of even years for manufacturing technology, The Photography Show and Crufts in March.

In the city centre, the ICC Birmingham at Centenary Square hosts congresses, industry conferences and product presentations with sponsor stands in its concourse.

What we shoot, day by day

Show day one starts before opening with the clean stand: wide views from the aisle, fascia and signage, screens, lighting, product walls and detail. Once the hall fills we photograph and film your team in real buyer conversations, demonstrations and busy aisles, so no order talk is interrupted. On the following days we add on-stand interviews with your directors, retail partners or customers, product close-ups in the quieter hour after lunch and any evening you host at the NEC hotels or in the city. Footage is cut by our editing team in Germany while the shooter is still in the hall, so a short recap can go out mid-show and the full film within 24 hours after the show day ends.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a trade fair photographer in Birmingham cost?

Packages start at €990 for two hours on site with at least 30 edited images and a 30-second video. Four hours is €1,490, a full show day €1,990, plus a travel share split between exhibitors of the same show week.

Do UK companies pay German VAT?

No. The United Kingdom is outside the EU, so UK companies are invoiced without German VAT. EU companies with a VAT ID receive a reverse-charge invoice.

Can you invoice in pounds?

Packages are fixed and invoiced in euro. If your finance team needs a sterling figure, the quote states the approximate GBP amount.

Why book a crew from Germany for a UK show?

Many of our clients exhibit in both countries and want matching photos and films: one crew, one style, one fixed price list at the NEC and at Messe Frankfurt.

How can you deliver in 24 hours from Birmingham?

Footage is uploaded during the show day and cut by our editing team in Germany while the shooter is still on site. Delivery is a private download link.

How early should I book?

Three to four weeks ahead is ideal, because we plan the trip around several exhibitors. Short-notice bookings work when we are already in Birmingham that week.
