The International Convention Centre (ICC) is a major conference venue in Birmingham, England.
The centre incorporates Symphony Hall and faces Centenary Square, with another entrance leading to the canals of Birmingham.
The centre is owned and operated by the NEC Group, who is also responsible for the nearby Arena Birmingham, just to the west of the complex.
A listed Victorian cast iron urinal was removed before construction began, on condition that it be re-erected.
On a specified date in August, the building is used by companies, organisations and/ or individuals as part of "Discovery Day" which features events co-ordinated all over the city.
The entrance is adorned by a neon sculpture, by Ron Hasledon, named "Birdlife" which hangs above it.
