jonedney124 Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 This will be my first time going to Collectormania and I will be arriving by train just after 7:30 to join the Early Bird queue. The NEC site says that the event will be in Hall 5 (?) and it's not clear how to get to Hall 5 (or rather, where the queue will be for the event) from Birmingham International station from the maps, as the routes on their map suggest walking through other halls or walking a long way round to either the Piazza or Hall 5 entrances. Can someone please clarify where people queue in the morning and how to get there from the station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knitty Fred Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) When you come out of International station you simply turn right and you're at the NEC and then just follow the signs for the hall. When you get there the queues are usually self-evident. Edited May 12, 2019 by Knitty Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonedney124 Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 OK thanks, having looked at the venue map again, it looks like Piazza entrance 2 is the one closest to the station and you walk through to Hall 5 from there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewrolar Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) the station is as good as part of the NEC. Once you leave the platform and go upstairs, you get to a main hall, turn right and walk about 5/10 mins until an escalator takes you downstairs from there it's sign posted and has helpers telling you where to go Edited May 12, 2019 by andrewrolar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 As the others have said, it's really a "just turn right and follow the signs/instructions of helpers" thing. I genuinely have no idea what number the entrance is. You really can't miss it if you just turn right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
