Emirates Stadium Overview
Home of Arsenal, Emirates Stadium sits between Holloway Road and Drayton Park in North London. On matchdays, stewarded zones and rolling closures operate around Hornsey Road, Drayton Park and the podium. Plan drop-off just beyond the tightest cordons for a short, easy walk in.
Smart arrival: we’ll agree a pre-match drop and a post-match meet on a quieter side street. Flying in? See our Airport Transfers hub, or book a dedicated Sports & Entertainment chauffeur.
Accessibility: we operate premium saloons, estates and people carriers (not wheelchair-adapted). Please see our Accessibility guidance.
