Taxi or train from Borough?

The public-transport version starts at Borough (the Northern line) and finishes at Marble Arch (the Central line), with a 10-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that which gate you leave by decides how far you walk. A car does the whole thing door to door in about 20 min, or 35 min when the roads are full - and it does it with your bags in the boot. If you are travelling light and early, the train usually wins on price. If you are in a group, carrying anything, or leaving after an event, the car wins on everything else.

The route

Out of Borough (SE1) the driver picks up the A3 then the A100, joining A40 Westway, then Bayswater Road for the run-in. About 5.3 miles in all - 20 min when it flows, 35 min when it does not.

In Borough the pavement outside your door is often the one place a car cannot stop. We agree the point in SE1 up front and the driver is on it, not circling.

Where the driver waits at BST Hyde Park

Marble Arch or Lancaster Gate, depending on which gate you leave by - Park Lane is closed to waiting traffic. Park Lane and West Carriage Drive close around the event, so the meeting point is agreed by gate: Marble Arch, Lancaster Gate or Hyde Park Corner. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.

Address: Hyde Park, Westminster, W2 2UH.

Parking at BST Hyde Park

Parking at BST Hyde Park is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.

When to leave Borough

Doors are usually an hour before the festival. Working back, that means leaving Borough around 35 min plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.
