Motorpoint Arena Nottingham

We are the Nottingham Arena, now known as the Motorpoint Arena Nottingham, a world-class entertainment venue located in the heart of Nottingham city centre. Built between 1998 and 2000, as part of the National Ice Centre complex, we’ve become a cultural landmark and a hub for live entertainment in the East Midlands, attracting visitors from across the region and even internationally.

We believe that the joy of live performances should be accessible to all, and we're committed to removing barriers so everyone can enjoy entertainment in a comfortable, inclusive, and welcoming environment.

Located on Level 3 of our venue and accessible via the main foyer lifts, our Changing Places facility includes the following facilities:
-A mobile height adjustable changing bench

Services for D/deaf and hard of hearing audiences
A hearing assistance system is installed within the main arena bowl for customers with a hearing impairment. This is accessed via an infra-red headset available from the Box Office during events. Please note customers will be asked to sign out a headset which is to be returned at the end of the show to a member of staff and the hearing assistance system is only available in certain seating locations.
We also offer a hearing loop that can be connected to a hearing aid, in selected seating locations. These need to be booked in advanced so we can ensure the hearing loop is working correctly in your chosen seat.
We offer a bookable BSL service for most shows held at the arena, for more information check the event page for the event you are looking to book for.
