On August 11, 2020, the BOCCG announced that the athletes and team officials will be housed in three ‘campus’ villages close to competition venues at the University of Birmingham, The University of Warwick, and The NEC Hotel Campus. Around 1,600 athletes and officials are set to be accommodated at the NEC Hotel Campus, with 1,900 at The University of Warwick, and the principal village with 2,800 at The University of Birmingham.


Birmingham 2022 will take place in 15 venues spread across the West Midlands region, with seven of them, including the athletics stadium and marathon route, located in Birmingham. The National Exhibition Centre complex, located on the fringes of the city in neighboring Solihull, will play host to the Games both in its exhibition halls and at the NEC Arena. The six other regional hosts are Coventry, Cannock Chase, Royal Leamington Spa, Sandwell, Warwick, and Wolverhampton. A sixteenth venue, the Lee Valley VeloPark in Stratford, East London, will host the track cycling.
