The Hilton Birmingham Metropole hotel is a popular choice for conferences and events with nearly 60,000 sq. ft. of event space, and it attracts more than 1700 events every year.

Rachel Parker, AEV director,, welcomed the hotel to the association, saying, "The Hilton Birmingham Metropole has a long history as a centre for national events, and I'm pleased to welcome this multi-purpose venue to our association. The Hilton Birmingham Metropole is not just a place to sleep, it delivers outstanding event services at a large scale, and will have great expertise, experience and variety to share with fellow members."
