How to Get to Wimbledon: Trains, Parking and Airport Taxis
Updated 13 September 2026. The 2026 Championships have ended; check current event arrangements before travelling.
Quick answer
Southfields on the District line is about a 15-minute walk from the tennis grounds. Official Championships parking is available, with advance booking required for most options. Flying into London? Compare an airport taxi to your Wimbledon hotel or the grounds, and check the fare for your terminal, date and luggage before booking.
Travelling light from central London? The train or Tube may suit you. Arriving from an airport with children and suitcases? A pre-booked transfer avoids carrying bags between services. For the tennis, allow for the walk or restricted vehicle access around Church Road whichever option you choose.

Wimbledon dates: check before you book travel
The 2026 Championships ran from 29 June to 12 July 2026. For a future visit, confirm your event date, ticket and entry arrangements on Wimbledon’s official website before arranging transport. A museum visit, a hotel stay and a Championships ticket do not necessarily need the same drop-off point.
Where is Wimbledon?
The tennis is held at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on Church Road, Wimbledon, SW19, in south-west London. Give your driver the venue or hotel address, rather than just “Wimbledon”: the station, town centre and tennis grounds are different destinations.
Getting to Wimbledon by tube, train and shuttle
These are the station options listed in National Rail’s Wimbledon travel guidance. Check the timetable for your travel date:
- Southfields (District line): allow about 15 minutes on foot.
- Wimbledon Park (District line): allow about 25 minutes on foot.
- Wimbledon station (South Western Railway and Thameslink): allow about 20 minutes on foot, or check the dedicated Championships bus service.
Plan the journey home too
Match finish times are uncertain. Check your last train and allow time to leave the grounds. If booking a car afterwards, agree where to meet and contact us if your pickup time needs to change.
Parking at Wimbledon tennis
Official Championships parking is available. Wimbledon’s parking guidance requires advance booking except for Morden Park park and ride. Check availability and the current arrangements before driving.
Do not rely on finding a space in a residential street. Check Merton’s Championships parking restrictions. A pre-booked transfer avoids parking your own car, but road restrictions can still mean a walk between the permitted drop-off point and your gate.
Heathrow to Wimbledon by taxi
For a Heathrow to Wimbledon transfer, choose your arrival terminal and give the full hotel or venue address. Add your flight number and allow for immigration and baggage collection when planning pickup. See our airport meet-and-greet arrangements before travelling.
The taxi fare depends on the actual route, date, pickup time, passengers and luggage. Get a Heathrow to Wimbledon taxi quote and confirm those details before paying. We do not publish one journey time for every terminal or promise that event traffic will be clear.
Arriving at Gatwick, Luton or Stansted?
You can also book an airport transfer to Wimbledon from:
- Gatwick Airport: confirm North or South Terminal in your booking.
- Luton Airport: choose the airport terminal rather than Luton Airport Parkway if you are arriving by air.
- Stansted Airport: include your flight number and the full Wimbledon destination.
Is an airport transfer right for your group?
- Check the total first. Enter the travel date and time to see the applicable fare. Read the pricing and waiting terms before confirming.
- Official arrival check. When you provide a flight number, we check official airport arrival information and confirm any material pickup change. Waiting beyond the included allowance may be charged under our terms.
- Luggage planning. Add every suitcase and cabin bag. If you need to leave bags at a hotel before the tennis, include that stop in the booking.
- Vehicle choice. Compare our vehicles and 8-seater luggage space with your group’s needs, rather than assuming one car will fit everyone.
