NEC Group – Bradford Live Update

“The news that the NEC group has pulled out of the Bradford Live project is of course disappointing. However, It does spell the end for months of speculation as to the venue’s future

“We now have a great opportunity for a new operator to come in and run one of the best music and entertainment venues in the whole country.

“With Bradford set to become UK city of culture. In 2025 this venue will play a key role in shining a spotlight on everything that Bradford has to offer the country and indeed the world.

“The chamber remains confident that Bradford Live will be an absolute game changer for the city on for the north of England, and will prove to be a huge success in the years to come.”

Mark Cowgill, Bradford Chamber President
