I was wondering if anyone had any advice on where to park next saturday at wembley, I will be driving down in my car and normally go on the coach.

Would appreciate any advice, thanks

Last year I just set my SatNav for Wembley, looked at when it was only a mile-ish away and then pulled into the first "Match Day Parking" sign I saw.

There's loads of office blocks in the area that use their car parks on a weekend to make a few extra quid. Cost me a fiver, and it had a security barrier and an attended. He had a high-vis jacket on and everything. In fact, he even opened the office to let my bro-in-law go for a p[ii[/iss.

I'll be shocked if you find it a problem. I'll be doing the same this year and hoping to remember which car park it was when I see it.

We walked passed loads of others en route to the ground. Could've probably got closer but we were happy with a bit of a walk. It escapes the crowds on the way out.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try that, just wasn't sure that there would be a lot available without pre-booking.

Don't mind a walk and five sounds a lot cheaper than the 25 that I have seen online!

Stick it on some double yellow lines.

If you're lucky, you might get the valet parking man to come round and take your car off you and you only have to pay him a small tip.

To be fair... a £30 parking ticket would still be cheaper than the £40 he'd seen online!

£40 to park your car at Wembley



Yet another good reason why it should have been built in the West Midlands.

True dat

Never tried parking in London before have you?



Personally, I've always found parking up at a tube station to be the best way.

I've parked at Wembley before (see above).

It's the £30 parking fine that surprised me.

It that's all it cost, it'd be cheaper to leave the car on double reds / yellows than find a multi-story in London

Double red are a tow away I think??

Best to leave on outskirts near a tube as said.

I've parked well out and got a train in before, think I went from Elstree/ Borehamwood

Yes. There was a slight element of tongue in cheek to my original mention of it mate. I appreciate the streets would be littered with cars if it were really that easy.

Just out of interest... What's the different between double red and double yellow lines?

I was under the impression that double yellows meant "No parking, or waiting, or stopping to set down and pick up passengers, full stop. Just don't stop here. End of". So what do the red ones mean?

^ See above!!

Double Reds = Urban clearway?

Just spotted that!

I've googled it, you can be towed from yellow too.

The crux of it is you can stop to pick up/put down passengers or to load/unload a car on a double yellow, but the reds are literally no stopping for any reason at all.

=#FFBF00DOUBLE YELLOW - Parking restrictions apply to the road (which includes the carriageway, pavement and verge). A driver may stop for passengers to board or alight and to load or unload (unless there are also 'loading restrictions').

=#FF0000DOUBLE RED - Vehicles are not permitted to stop. This includes stopping for loading or unloading, and boarding or alighting from a vehicle (except for licensed taxis and the holders of blue badges).

I've decided to go!

Balls to driving, gonna get train to kings cross then the tube wembley park station.

Quicker and easier for me.

Last year we used parkonmydrive.com, which someone recommended on here and it was great. We parked about a 5 minute walk from Wembley in an office car park which had security walking round. Was £15 though.

Doing the same this year but it's gone up to £20.

I did see the parkonmydrive site too

When I drive to Old Trafford I usually just wait for the match parking signs so will probably do the same in london

Thanks for everyones dvice

I'm driving (working close to London on the Friday) so going to leave it where I am staying.

Bit of a trek after the game, but once back, 5 mins to a major motorway heading North.

Short walk to a mainline rail station and the cost of a ticket including a travelcard is STILL cheaper than the costs of parking around Wembley.

In the past we've parked at Stanmore tube station, always found it fairly easy way.

I'll be parking in the hotel car park and catching the tube to Wembley Park.

I know this doesn't really help but I thought you might be interested anyway.

£40 parking!!

Obviously GH had seen that figure and when he decided on his extortionate pricing of £40 coach fare bearing in mind Leeds are only charging £25 for the trip to Quins.
