Events & Venues
BST Hyde Park is on your doorstep in Victoria - a short hop rather than a journey, which is exactly why a pre-booked car beats hunting for one on the night. We pick up anywhere across SW1 for a fixed £30, and the driver waits at the agreed spot instead of you queuing at a rank. Allow about 15 min door to door when the festival traffic is at its worst.
A pre-booked taxi from Victoria to BST Hyde Park costs from £30 for up to 4 passengers and takes about 10 min off-peak. The price is fixed before you travel and includes tolls, waiting time and luggage.

From most of Victoria the approach is A40 Westway, then Bayswater Road, and it is the last few hundred metres that cost the time, not the miles.

On a clear evening you are there in minutes; around the festival allow 15 min and let the driver pick the way in.
