Thursday 8 May 2025 | The Grand Hotel Birmingham

Celebrating Excellence & Achievement in Modern Methods of Construction

We're delighted to announce the 3rd edition of the Modern Methods of Construction Awards will take place on Thursday 8 May 2025. 

Due to record demand this year, we are moving to The Grand Hotel Birmingham! This means that we can continue to celebrate the achievements of the Modern Methods of Construction industry with its growing list of stakeholders year on year.

All the main players will be present, celebrating the most innovative and inspiring uses of modern methods of construction over the past year.

Participation in the Awards solidifies your position in the market, identifying you as a key participant in driving the use of modern methods of construction. It is an excellent opportunity to network with other leading individuals in the industry, including partners and new contacts, whilst enjoying a luxurious lunch and discovering the latest projects that have caught the imagination of the judges.

The Awards are held in partnership with the Modular and Portable Building Association (MPBA).

In 1875, Isaac Horton and his architect, Thomson Plevins, began work on a 100-bedroom hotel on the corner of Colmore Row and Church Street: The Grand Hotel Birmingham opened some four years later, on 1 February 1879. Further additions and extensions were made over the following 15 years, chief among them the Louis XIV-style ballroom.

For the whole of the 20th century, The Grand Hotel was a Birmingham landmark, and for the best part of that time a byword for luxury and civic pride. Since 2002, the hotel has been closed but now – following a £45 million restoration and refurbishment of the spectacular, Grade 2* listed building – The Grand Hotel re-opened in May 2021.

Postal Address: 1 Church Street, Birmingham B3 2FE

Grand in scale and extraordinary in detail, the Grand Ballroom is a showstopper of a room, and sure to leave a lasting impression.

Built in 1898 and originally known as the Grosvenor Room, the Grand Ballroom is an architectural and engineering masterpiece: almost 30m (100ft) long and 10m (32ft) high, it is decorated with ornate plasterwork, elegant cartouches and original, Art Deco “electroliers” (electric chandeliers).
