On the network it is Shepherd's Bush (the Central line and London Overground) to Wembley Park (Metropolitan and Jubilee), plus a 10-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it shares the post-event queueing with the stadium next door. Door to door by road is about 25 min, or 40 min 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.
The usual line from Shepherd's Bush is the A40 then the A219 then the A3220, then A406 North Circular to Great Central Way, then Engineers Way at the end. About 7.7 miles in all - 25 min when it flows, 40 min when it does not.
Shepherd's Bush pickups take in all of W12. Controlled parking zones and one-way systems are the driver's problem to solve, not yours.
Set down and pick up on Engineers Way, on the Olympic Way side of the arena. Engineers Way and Olympic Way close to traffic around stadium and arena events, so the pickup shifts to the Wembley Park end. 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: Arena Square, Engineers Way, HA9 0AA.
If you were thinking of driving yourself: OVO Arena Wembley 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 show. Working back, that means leaving Shepherd's Bush around 40 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.
£50 in a saloon, £65 in a 6-seat MPV and £75 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 25 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Shepherd's Bush to Wembley Park plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Set down and pick up on Engineers Way, on the Olympic Way side of the arena. 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.
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.
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.
