Event & venue transfers
Around 16.0 miles door to door, 40 min when the roads are behaving. From £85, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Chiswick to The O2 Arena is £85 in a saloon, £110 in a 6-seat MPV and £120 in an 8-seater. It is about 16.0 miles and 40 min off-peak, or 1h 05m in traffic. The fare is fixed at the moment you book and covers tolls, the driver's waiting time and your luggage.
| Vehicle | Capacity | Fixed fare |
|---|---|---|
| Saloon | up to 4 passengers, 2 large cases | from £85 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £110 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £120 |
Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
The public-transport version starts at Turnham Green (the District and Piccadilly lines) and finishes at North Greenwich (the Jubilee line), with a 5-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that the Jubilee platforms are a crush for 40 minutes after a show empties. Door to door by road is about 40 min, or 1h 05m when the roads are full, with no changes, no stairs and no queue at the barrier. It is a fair fight on the way there. On the way back, when several thousand people want the same platform, it stops being one.
Out of Chiswick (W4) the driver picks up the A4 then the A406 then the A316, joining A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach, then Millennium Way for the run-in. Roughly 16.0 miles, and the timing swings with the hour rather than the route: 40 min clear, 1h 05m loaded.
We cover the whole of Chiswick - W4 - including the streets where flagging something down is a matter of luck rather than timing.
Private hire pickup is next to Car Park 3, past the Tesco on Millennium Way - not the main Entrance A forecourt, which is coach and black-cab only. The Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels are free between 22:00 and 06:00, so a return leg after a late finish costs the same as the outbound. 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: Peninsula Square, Greenwich Peninsula, SE10 0DX.
If you were thinking of driving yourself: The O2 Arena sits inside a matchday or event-day controlled parking zone, on-site spaces are pre-book only and go early, and the residential streets around it are permit-holders only with active enforcement. Pre-booked both ways, none of that is your problem.
Doors are usually an hour before the gig. Working back, that means leaving Chiswick around 1h 05m 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.
£85 in a saloon, £110 in a 6-seat MPV and £120 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 40 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Turnham Green to North Greenwich plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Private hire pickup is next to Car Park 3, past the Tesco on Millennium Way - not the main Entrance A forecourt, which is coach and black-cab only. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.
The driver waits. We watch venue finish times rather than working to a fixed clock, so a late curtain does not leave you stranded or cost you extra.
Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.
Yes, and it is the leg worth booking. The driver is in position before you come out instead of you joining the queue that forms the moment it ends.
A 6-seat MPV is £110 and an 8-seater £120. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
Fares are fixed at booking and shown per vehicle. Distances and journey times are approximate and vary with traffic and the exact pickup address. Page reviewed 25 September 2026.
