Event & venue transfers
Around 5.1 miles door to door, 20 min when the roads are behaving. From £40, locked at booking, with no meter running and no surge applied.
A taxi from Soho to Emirates Stadium is £40 in a saloon, £50 in a 6-seat MPV and £60 in an 8-seater. It is about 5.1 miles and 20 min off-peak, or 35 min 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 £40 |
| MPV | up to 6 passengers, 4 large cases | from £50 |
| 8-seater | up to 7 passengers, 7 large cases | from £60 |
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 Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern and Elizabeth) and finishes at Arsenal (the Piccadilly line), with a 5-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that Arsenal station is exit-only for a spell after full time. The taxi is about 20 min, or 35 min when the roads are full, but it is one journey rather than three, and nobody stands up for any of it. Two people with hand luggage should take the train. Three or more, or anyone with a case, and the fixed fare splits better than the tickets do.
The usual line from Soho is the A4 then the A400, then A1 Holloway Road, then Drayton Park at the end. That is about 5.1 miles. Reckon 20 min off-peak and 35 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.
Pickups in Soho land inside the Congestion Charge zone, which is already in the price - and on W1D, W1F the driver will name a legal stopping point rather than idle on a red route.
Drayton Park or the Hornsey Road side; Queensland Road and Hornsey Road fill quickly after full time. Islington runs a matchday parking and road-closure zone around the ground, so the pickup point sits a few streets out on Hornsey Road. 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: Hornsey Road, Highbury, N7 7AJ.
If you were thinking of driving yourself: Emirates Stadium 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 match. Working back, that means leaving Soho 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.
£40 in a saloon, £50 in a 6-seat MPV and £60 in an 8-seater. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.
Door to door the car is about 20 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Tottenham Court Road to Arsenal plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
Drayton Park or the Hornsey Road side; Queensland Road and Hornsey Road fill quickly after full time. 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.
A 6-seat MPV is £50 and an 8-seater £60. Bigger parties travel in several vehicles routed together.
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.
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.
