From St Albans (AL1, AL2, AL3, AL4) the natural line out is the M25 J21a and the M1 J6, joining A1 Holloway Road, then Drayton Park for the last part of the journey. Door to door it works out at roughly 23.1 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 45 min off-peak becomes 1h 10m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
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.
Address: Hornsey Road, Highbury, N7 7AJ.
We pick up anywhere in St Albans and the surrounding Hertfordshire postcodes - AL1, AL2, AL3, AL4. House, hotel lobby or office reception, whichever suits you on the day.
St Albans sits on the M25 J21a, M1 J6 corridor, which is what makes this journey predictable rather than a gamble on the day.
Doors are usually an hour before the match starts. Allowing 1h 10m for the drive from St Albans plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.

A saloon is from £60, an estate from £70, a 6-seat MPV from £85 and an 8-seat minibus from £110. The price is fixed when you book and covers the whole journey.
