Getting to the Wimbledon tennis by chauffeur: a practical guide
Updated 6 November 2026 · By the Wimbledon Chauffeur team
Short answer: During the tennis fortnight in late June and early July, roads around the All England Club are busy and some have parking and access restrictions. A pre-booked chauffeur can drop you as close as the local traffic arrangements allow and collect you at an agreed point after play, which avoids queues at Southfields and Wimbledon stations. Book early, as demand is high.
Why use a chauffeur for the tennis
- No queuing for trains and the Underground after play
- No hunting for parking in restricted roads
- Door-to-door from your hotel, home or office
- Easy to combine with a dinner reservation afterwards
Planning your timings
Gates usually open in the late morning and play can run late into the evening, so agree a pick-up window rather than a fixed time. Your driver will wait nearby and you can message when you are ready to leave.
Booking tips
- Book as early as possible, ideally weeks ahead
- Give the driver your phone number for pick-up messages
- Choose a people carrier for groups of four or more
- Consider hourly hire if you plan to stop elsewhere
