Wembley Stadium and the SSE Arena host the biggest matches and concerts in the country, which means up to 90,000 people arriving and leaving together. From Gerrards Cross it is one of the closer major venues, but the post-event exit is legendary. A chauffeur drop-off makes the night far smoother. Here is how.
- Wembley is around 35–55 minutes from Gerrards Cross via the A40 and North Circular.
- Stadium parking is limited and must be pre-booked; the post-event crowd surge is intense.
- A chauffeur drops you near the venue and collects you away from the worst of the exit crush.
How far is Wembley from Gerrards Cross?
Wembley is around 35–55 minutes from Gerrards Cross via the A40 and the North Circular, making it one of the closer major event venues. Traffic builds sharply before a big match or concert, so arriving early, and not having to park, makes a real difference.
Why be driven to Wembley?
With tens of thousands leaving at once, the area around the stadium gridlocks and the Tube and trains are packed for an hour after the final whistle or encore. A chauffeur collects you from an agreed point a little away from the crush, so you are moving while others queue.
What about parking at the stadium?
Official Wembley parking is limited and must be booked in advance, and the surrounding streets have heavy event-day restrictions. For most people from Buckinghamshire, a drop-off and collection is simpler and cheaper than the parking and the stress combined.
Is it good for concerts as well as matches?
Yes, the same applies to a concert at the stadium or the arena, you want to enjoy the night, not worry about the drive or the last train. A car means a relaxed evening and a comfortable ride home to the Chilterns at a fixed price. See our executive cars.
Big-event logistics, handled
Wembley on a major night is a small city on the move. Whether it is a cup final, an international or a stadium concert, the surge of people leaving at once overwhelms the roads and the Tube for an hour, which is why your departure plan matters more than your arrival.
A chauffeur who knows the area collects you from a sensible point away from the immediate crush, so while the crowds funnel towards the station, you are already heading home up the A40 in comfort.
