The route

From Welwyn Garden City (AL7, AL8) the natural line out is the A1(M) J4 and the A414, joining A406 North Circular, then Bounds Green Road for the last part of the journey. That is about 20.2 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 40 min off-peak becomes 1h 05m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

Where we meet you at Alexandra Palace

The Palm Court entrance on Alexandra Palace Way. The hill up to the Palace is steep and the internal roads run one-way on event nights, so pickup is at Palm Court rather than the car parks.

Address: Alexandra Palace Way, Wood Green, N22 7AY.
