Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
On the network it is Stratford (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth and the DLR) to Selhurst (National Rail), plus a 12-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that three stations serve the ground and none is close. The taxi is about 35 min, or 1h when the roads are full, but it is one journey rather than three, and nobody stands up for any of it. 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.
The usual line from Newham is the A13 then the A12, then A213 Whitehorse Lane, off the A215 at the end. About 14.6 miles in all - 35 min when it flows, 1h when it does not.
We cover the whole of Newham - E6, E7, E13, E15, E16 - including the streets where flagging something down is a matter of luck rather than timing.
Whitehorse Lane or Park Road, clear of the Holmesdale Road closure. The streets around Selhurst are narrow and go one-way on matchdays, so the meeting point sits on Whitehorse Lane. 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: Holmesdale Road, South Norwood, SE25 6PU.
If you were thinking of driving yourself: Selhurst Park 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. A drop-off and a booked return sidesteps it entirely.
Doors are usually an hour before the match. Working back, that means leaving Newham around 1h 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.
£80 in a saloon, £100 in a 6-seat MPV and £110 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 35 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Stratford to Selhurst plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Whitehorse Lane or Park Road, clear of the Holmesdale Road closure. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.
No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.
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.
Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.
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.
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 7 September 2026.
