Other Info:
The track is situated in the Community Hall and can be relatively easily dismantled and reinstalled to allow other events like pop concerts to take place. The venue is the largest indoor stadium in the UK and stages the British leg of the Indoor Grand Prix. The track surface is Mondo Sportflex Super X Classic. There is a strict rule that spike lengths for all users except high jumpers must be 6mm or less. The National Indoor Arena is managed by the NEC group.
