Other Facilities - Tourist Information


CV One, the not-for-profit company which promotes the Coventry and Warwickshire areas, operates an information bureau off the main atrium walkway.

The office showcases the facilities and attractions that are available across the region. It also provides a wealth of information for visitors to the multi-purpose complex such as public transport timetables and details of where to stay and visit in the region.

The centre also sells 'Coventry' gifts such as Jaguar car models and pictures of the 1,000 year old mediaeval city as well as providing a service to book theatre tickets.

The facility, which was part funded by a grant from Advantage West Midlands’ Capital Project Fund, is operated whenever major events are held at the Ricoh Arena.
