The Emirates Stadium is located in Holloway, approximately 6 km north of the centre of London and 27 km east of Heathrow Airport. It is easily accessible by public transport, but driving is not recommended due to matchday congestion and a lack of parking options.
Below you can find general information on travel and parking for Emirates Stadium. Individual events may have additional/restricted services available, and so we recommend clicking through to the event and viewing the Travel & Parking tab for event-specific information.
Supporters are strongly advised not to drive to Emirates Stadium. The ground is situated in a mainly residential area with an extensive Event Day Parking Scheme in operation. Only car owners with resident's permits will be allowed to park on-street in the designated areas and any cars parked illegally will be towed away.
There are changes to the traffic plans on days when matches are played. This is so the Metropolitan Police Service can safely manage travel to and from the stadium and reduce inconvenience, as far as possible, to people living nearby.
Taxis can pick up and drop off on roads surrounding the venue, but due to congestion early arrival is advisable.
Bus is a fast and convenient option with connections passing the ground on all sides:
Train is a popular way to reach the Emirates Stadium because of its connections with multiple lines:
Please note: Holloway Road station will be exit-only before and after matches with pre-match eastbound trains non-stopping. Drayton Park is also closed on match days.
Accommodation in London can be on the pricey side. However, this huge city has plenty of options available from hostels to luxury hotels and, combined with its sprawling transport network, there are places to stay for all budgets and tastes.
There are 16 entrances located around the perimeter of the stadium labelled A through S. Seating blocks 1-3, 30-32, and 93-132 are located in the West Stand, seating blocks 4-13 and 94-109 are located in the North Bank, seating blocks 14-19 and 110-115 are located in the East Stand, and seating blocks 20-29 and 116-131 are located in the Clock End.
The seating blocks correspond to the turnstiles as follows:
Turnstile blocks A, D, E, H, J, K, M, N, and S all have wheelchair access gates which can be used by both wheelchair users and ambulant disabled supporters.
For security purposes, supporters will be searched when entering Emirates Stadium. These thorough searches will be carried out by Arsenal Football Club security, and search dogs may be present at the turnstiles. Any supporter found with prohibited items in their possession may be arrested.
There is secure cycling parking available close to the "Highbury House" retail store on Drayton Park. The cycle parking area is clearly signposted, but Arsenal stewards will be on hand to assist on matchdays.
If you're staying in Falconer Walk, the stadium is approximately a 1.3 km (16 min) walk.
There are standard male and female toilets available next to all the entrances to seating areas on the Lower and Upper Tiers and on Club Level next to the restaurant and bar areas. Every standard toilet block contains one cubicle suitable for ambulant disabled supporters.
The only parking facilities inside the stadium are a limited amount of matchday parking for Blue Badge holders. These spaces must be booked in advance. Please contact your club for full details. Some on-street parking is also available for Blue Badge holders either in dedicated Blue Badge bays or vacant residents’ bays. Please note some of the Blue Badge bays in the area are specifically for the use of a designated local Blue Badge holder.
There are nine lifts inside the stadium which disabled supporters can use to go to all levels in the stadium. The lifts are located at the following cores: A/B, C/D, E/F (which has 2 lifts available), G/H, J/K, L/M, N/P and R/S. All lifts are stewarded on match days and disabled supporters and people with mobility problems have priority at all the lifts and, from half an hour before kick-off E/F and N/P lifts are designated for disabled supporters only.
All lifts have visual floor indicators an audible announcer, hearing loops, and tactile markings on the control buttons.
Wheelchair platforms at the Emirates Stadium are as follows:
Personal assistants are either seated behind or next to the wheelchair users. The platforms on the Upper and Lower Tiers are all accessed via ramps (stewards are on hand to assist if required), while on the Middle Tier there is level access onto the platforms via double doors from inside the Club Level bar and restaurant areas.
Seating for Visually Impaired and Ambulant Disabled supporters is generally located in the rows immediately in front of the Lower Tier and Upper Tier wheelchair platforms as this means that supporters have level access from the concourse and then only one or two steps down to their seats. Also, on request, and subject to availability, visually impaired and ambulant disabled supporters can sometimes be allocated adjacent PA seats on the Lower Tier wheelchair platforms.
In September 2017, the club opened a Sensory Room Facility for supporters with Autism, ADHD and other sensory needs who would otherwise not be able to come to matches at Emirates Stadium because they are unable to cope with the crowds or the noise in and around the stadium. The facility includes a viewing area where supporters can watch games in a safe and secure environment away from the noise and crowds in the main bowl of the stadium. The Sensory Room is open for every game at Emirates Stadium. Tickets are free of charge. Up to 6 supporters can attend along with either their parents or a parent and a sibling. The facility can also be used on non-matchdays by schools or disability groups.
There are 37 wheelchair accessible toilets located inside the stadium. All are fitted with RADAR locks to prevent abuse by non-disabled supporters. All supervising stewards hold RADAR keys in case a disabled supporter/visitor does not have one with them. All the wheelchair accessible toilets are unisex and the toilet doors all open outwards. The dimensions of the accessible toilet are 180 cm x 235 cm (5 ft 11 in x 7 ft 9 in). Either a left or right transfer space is available in every wheelchair accessible toilet along with colour contrasted grab rails. The lateral transfer space is 110 cm (3 ft 7 in). The wash hand basins all have lever type mixer taps. The wheelchair accessible toilets are also fitted with appropriate height mirrors, hand dryers and coat hooks and pull cord emergency alarms.
The Changing Places Toilet (CPT) is in Block 48 on Club Level. It is available to any disabled supporter in the stadium on a match day or a non-match day and it is fitted with a RADAR lock.
On a matchday, disabled supporters not on Club Level wanting to use the CPT facility should contact the Disability Liaison Team (DLT) via any steward and a member of the DLT will come and escort you from your seat/wheelchair place to the CPT facility and back again. The dimensions of the CPT facility are 205 cm x 410 cm (6 ft 9 in x 13 ft 5 in). The facility includes a height adjustable changing bench (length 179 cm- 5 ft 10 in), with shower attachment and a powered overhead hoist which covers all areas of the facility. The toilet in the CPT facility is peninsular. The transfer space on the left as you face the toilet is 60 cm (1 ft 11.5 in) and on the right is 96 cm (3 ft 2 in). Colour contrasted wall mounted and drop-down grab rails are fitted around the toilet. The facility also includes a sink, a privacy screen, non-slip flooring and a pull cord emergency alarm. Please note the club does not provide slings.
The Disabled Supporters Lounge is open for home and away disabled supporters (and their PA’s) before every home game at Emirates Stadium, (excluding the Emirates Cup weekend and International Friendlies).
The Lounge is equipped with a large screen TV and there is also free tea and coffee available (although Arsenal do ask disabled supporters to consider making a small donation to The Arsenal Foundation for the refreshments). A wheelchair accessible toilet facility is also available.
The Disabled Supporters Lounge is located just inside the Museum Entrance which is outside the stadium in the Northern Triangle Building on podium level opposite turnstile Block E. Once you are inside The Arsenal Museum entrance, the Disabled Supporters Lounge is on your right. For disabled supporters in the car park, you can reach the Lounge through the door marked Disabled Supporters Lounge located at the rear of Orange Car Park 4 then via a lift to the museum entrance and the Lounge will then be on your left.
Emirates Stadium has a capacity of approximately 60,704. However, the capacity does differ between events depending on the seating configuration.
