How to Get to Wimbledon Tennis – Complete Travel Guide
Planning a visit to Wimbledon Tennis? This comprehensive guide explains how to get to The All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) during The Championships, including travel by London Underground, train, tram, bus, taxi, private hire, chauffeur and car.
We also explain how to travel to Wimbledon from Heathrow Airport, Gatwick Airport, Stansted Airport, Luton Airport and London City Airport, as well as from central London, Waterloo, St Pancras and Croydon.
The Championships take place at The All England Lawn Tennis Club, Church Road, Wimbledon, London SW19 5AE. However, visitors should take care when entering the destination into a satellite-navigation system because the surrounding roads and event-day traffic arrangements can change during The Championships.
Last updated: September 2026. Transport routes, road restrictions, parking arrangements and event-day access can change, so always check the latest official Wimbledon and Transport for London information before travelling.
How Do You Get to Wimbledon Tennis?
For most visitors using public transport, Southfields Underground Station is one of the principal stations for reaching the Wimbledon Championships. It is on the District line and is approximately 0.9 miles from the Grounds. Wimbledon Station is also an important transport hub, with Underground, National Rail and Tram connections, and is approximately 1.1 miles from the Grounds.
During The Championships, dedicated transport and event-specific walking, taxi and drop-off arrangements may operate. If you are travelling from an airport, carrying several bags, travelling with children or travelling as a group, a pre-booked private transfer can provide a direct journey to the Wimbledon area.
Where Is Wimbledon Tennis?
The Wimbledon Championships are held at The All England Lawn Tennis Club on Church Road in Wimbledon, South West London.
The main address is:
The All England Lawn Tennis Club
Church Road
Wimbledon
London
SW19 5AE
The Championships Grounds are not immediately beside Wimbledon town centre or Wimbledon railway station. This is important for first-time visitors because a journey planner may show Wimbledon Station as the destination even though you will still have a walk or connecting journey to the Grounds.
Southfields is also an important station for Wimbledon visitors. Transport for London identifies Southfields Underground Station as a District line station, while Wimbledon Station provides connections with the District line, South Western Railway and London Trams.
Wimbledon Championships 2027 Dates
The 2027 Wimbledon Championships are scheduled to take place from Monday 28 June to Sunday 11 July 2027.
Travel arrangements can be particularly busy during The Championships. Roads around the All England Club can experience significant congestion, while stations, walking routes, taxis and other public transport services can become much busier than normal.
If you have a ticket for a particular court or session, allow sufficient time for your journey, walking to the correct entrance, security procedures and queues.
Do not rely on a normal non-event-day journey time when planning an important Wimbledon appointment.
Best Ways to Get to Wimbledon Tennis
There is no single best method of travelling to Wimbledon for every visitor. The most suitable option depends on where you are starting, the time of your visit, the number of passengers, luggage, mobility requirements and whether you are travelling during a particularly busy period.
| Travel Method | Best For |
|---|---|
| London Underground | Visitors travelling around London |
| Train | Visitors arriving through Wimbledon Station or from South West London |
| Tram | Passengers travelling from areas including Croydon |
| Bus | Visitors who prefer surface transport or event-day shuttle services |
| Taxi | Direct local journeys from stations or nearby areas |

| Chauffeur | Executive travel, business guests and premium Wimbledon trips |
| Airport Transfer | Visitors travelling directly between an airport and Wimbledon |
| Car | Visitors who specifically need to drive, subject to event parking arrangements |
Getting to Wimbledon by London Underground
The London Underground is one of the most practical ways to travel towards Wimbledon from central London.
The District line serves Wimbledon and Southfields. From central London, passengers can connect with the District line at appropriate interchange stations and travel westbound towards Wimbledon.
Southfields Underground Station
Southfields Station is on the District line and is one of the key Underground stations for Wimbledon visitors.
The station is on Wimbledon Park Road. From Southfields, visitors can follow the signed walking route towards the All England Club.
Official Wimbledon information places Southfields approximately 0.9 miles from the Grounds. Walking times can vary according to the route, crowds, weather and the particular entrance you need to reach.
During The Championships, follow official event signs and steward instructions rather than relying exclusively on an old walking route saved in a navigation application.
Wimbledon Underground Station
Wimbledon Underground Station is also served by the District line and is integrated with the wider Wimbledon transport interchange.
Wimbledon Station connects passengers with South Western Railway, London Underground and London Trams. During The Championships, dedicated event transport may also operate from the Wimbledon area.
Walking from Wimbledon Station to the Grounds is possible, but visitors should remember that it is not immediately outside the Championships entrance.
Wimbledon Park Station
Wimbledon Park is another District line station in the local area. Depending on your starting point and the day’s transport arrangements, it may provide another option for reaching the Wimbledon area.
Always check the current Transport for London journey information before travelling, particularly if there are engineering works or temporary service changes.
Getting to Wimbledon from Central London
If you are staying in central London, the Underground is usually a straightforward way of reaching the Wimbledon area.
Depending on where you are staying, you may be able to connect to the District line towards Wimbledon.
Major central London areas from which visitors commonly travel include:
- Victoria
- Westminster
- South Kensington
- Earls Court
- Hammersmith
- Paddington
- Notting Hill
- Mayfair
- Marble Arch
- Oxford Street
- Waterloo
- St Pancras International
Because Wimbledon becomes exceptionally busy during The Championships, allow additional time for changing trains, walking between stations and reaching the correct entrance.
Getting to Wimbledon from London Waterloo
London Waterloo is particularly useful for visitors travelling towards Wimbledon by rail.
South Western Railway services operate between Waterloo and Wimbledon, making Wimbledon Station an important interchange for passengers arriving from central London and South West London.
Once you arrive at Wimbledon Station, you can continue towards the Championships Grounds by walking, local transport or event-day transport arrangements where available.
If you have heavy luggage or are travelling with passengers who would find the walk difficult, consider arranging a pre-booked taxi or private transfer for the final part of the journey.
Getting to Wimbledon from St Pancras International
Visitors arriving at St Pancras International can use London’s Underground and rail network to travel towards Wimbledon.
A typical journey involves travelling across central London and connecting with services towards Wimbledon. The exact route depends on the current Underground service, engineering works and your arrival time.
If you are arriving with large suitcases, travelling as a family or attending Wimbledon immediately after arriving in London, a pre-booked private transfer can remove the need to change public transport services with luggage.
Getting to Wimbledon from Heathrow Airport
Wimbledon is relatively close to Heathrow compared with some other parts of London, making the route between Heathrow Airport and Wimbledon popular with international tennis visitors.
Heathrow to Wimbledon by Public Transport
Public transport options from Heathrow involve connecting with London’s rail and Underground network. The precise route depends on the terminal, time of travel and current service conditions.
Passengers should use a current Transport for London journey planner when travelling on a specific date because services and interchange arrangements can change.
Heathrow to Wimbledon by Private Transfer
A pre-booked private airport transfer provides a direct journey from Heathrow Airport to the Wimbledon area without requiring passengers to change trains or carry luggage through multiple stations.
This can be particularly useful for:
- International visitors arriving with several suitcases
- Families travelling with children
- Groups travelling together
- Passengers arriving after a long-haul flight
- Business or corporate guests attending Wimbledon
- Visitors travelling with tennis equipment
- Passengers booking an executive Mercedes vehicle
Wimbledon to Heathrow Airport transfer and Heathrow-to-Wimbledon journeys can be arranged in advance with Heathrow Gatwick Cars.
Getting to Wimbledon from Gatwick Airport
Gatwick Airport is another important arrival point for international visitors travelling to Wimbledon.
Gatwick to Wimbledon by Public Transport
Passengers travelling from Gatwick can use the rail network towards London and then connect with services towards Wimbledon. The most appropriate route depends on the time of travel and the available services on the day.
Check current rail and Transport for London information before travelling because engineering works and timetable changes can affect connections.
Gatwick to Wimbledon by Private Transfer
A private transfer from Gatwick Airport to Wimbledon provides a direct journey for passengers who prefer not to change trains with luggage.
This is particularly useful for families, groups, visitors carrying multiple bags and passengers who want to travel directly from the airport to their hotel or Wimbledon accommodation.
View our Gatwick to Wimbledon transfer service.
Getting to Wimbledon from Stansted Airport
Visitors arriving at London Stansted Airport can travel towards central London by rail and continue towards Wimbledon using the London transport network.
Because Stansted is outside central London, the journey involves a longer transfer than Heathrow or Gatwick. Visitors with a Wimbledon ticket for a specific session should allow plenty of time for airport arrival procedures, the journey into London and the onward journey to the Grounds.
A pre-booked private transfer can provide a direct airport-to-Wimbledon journey, particularly where several passengers are travelling together.
For larger groups, ask about the most suitable vehicle before booking so that passenger numbers and luggage can be accommodated safely.
Getting to Wimbledon from Luton Airport
London Luton Airport is another option for visitors arriving from overseas or elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
Travel from Luton to Wimbledon generally involves a combination of airport transfer and London’s rail or Underground network.
If you are travelling with several pieces of luggage, children or a group, compare the complete door-to-door journey rather than looking only at the cost of an individual train ticket.
A private transfer can take passengers directly from Luton Airport to their Wimbledon destination without requiring changes between different transport services.
Getting to Wimbledon from London City Airport
London City Airport is located in East London and is connected to the London public transport network.
Passengers can use the airport’s transport connections to travel towards central London and then continue towards Wimbledon.
For business visitors, corporate guests or passengers with luggage who prefer a direct journey, a pre-booked private vehicle can provide a door-to-door alternative.
Getting to Wimbledon from Croydon
Wimbledon and Croydon are connected by the London Tram network, making the tram an important option for visitors travelling from South London.
The tram connection can be particularly useful for visitors staying in Croydon or travelling through East and South London.
At Wimbledon Station, passengers can continue towards the Championships Grounds using the appropriate walking route or event-day transport arrangements.
For visitors travelling as a family or group, a private transfer may be more convenient where a direct journey is preferred.
Getting to Wimbledon by Train
Wimbledon Station is one of the main transport hubs for the area.
It provides connections with:
- South Western Railway
- London Underground District line
- London Trams
During The Championships, additional event-specific travel arrangements may be introduced.
Always check the latest Wimbledon travel information before travelling because event-day transport arrangements can differ from normal services.
Getting to Wimbledon by Tram
The London Tram network provides a direct connection between Wimbledon and several areas of South London.
This can make the tram useful for visitors travelling from Croydon and surrounding areas.
Tram frequency and operating arrangements can vary, so check the current timetable before leaving.
Getting to Wimbledon by Bus
Local London bus services operate around Wimbledon, although event-day arrangements can differ from normal bus services.
During The Championships, dedicated Wimbledon transport services may operate between Wimbledon Station and the Grounds. The exact service, route, frequency and fares should be checked for the particular Championships year.
Do not rely on old information about a specific bus service from previous Wimbledon tournaments. Routes and event arrangements can change.
Walking to Wimbledon Tennis
Walking is a realistic option from both Southfields and Wimbledon stations, but visitors should allow sufficient time.
Official Wimbledon information places Southfields approximately 0.9 miles from the Grounds and Wimbledon Station approximately 1.1 miles away.
The walking route can become very busy during The Championships. There may also be queues and crowd-control arrangements around the event.
Comfortable footwear is recommended, particularly if you plan to walk from a station and then spend several hours at the Grounds.
Getting to Wimbledon by Taxi
Taxis are available around the Wimbledon area and official Wimbledon guidance identifies taxi facilities at key transport locations and designated event-day areas.
During The Championships, taxi and private-hire arrangements can be different from normal days.
Official Wimbledon information has identified taxi facilities around Southfields and Wimbledon stations, together with designated areas associated with the Grounds.
Visitors should follow the event signage and instructions from stewards when arriving or leaving.
For a return journey, it is sensible to plan your pickup before you enter the Grounds, particularly if you have a fixed onward train or flight.
Getting to Wimbledon by Private Hire Vehicle or Chauffeur
A pre-booked private hire vehicle or chauffeur can be a practical option for visitors who want a planned journey rather than travelling to Wimbledon by multiple public transport connections.
Private hire journeys must be booked in advance. The agreed fare is normally confirmed when the booking is made, subject to the booking terms and any additional services requested.
Heathrow Gatwick Cars provides private airport transfers and chauffeur-style journeys for customers travelling to and from Wimbledon.
Depending on passenger numbers, luggage and the level of service required, customers can enquire about suitable saloon, executive or MPV/V-Class vehicles.
Why Pre-Book a Wimbledon Transfer?
- Direct pre-arranged journey
- Fixed fare agreed in advance
- No need to search for a taxi after arriving at the airport
- Useful for airport-to-Wimbledon journeys
- Suitable for families and groups when the correct vehicle is booked
- Executive vehicle options available on request
- Useful when carrying luggage or tennis equipment
- Return journeys can be arranged in advance
Book a Wimbledon private transfer with Heathrow Gatwick Cars.
Wimbledon Airport Transfers
For international visitors, the journey to Wimbledon often begins at an airport rather than in central London.
Heathrow Gatwick Cars can provide pre-booked private transfers between Wimbledon and major London airports, subject to availability and vehicle requirements.
| Airport | Wimbledon Transfer |
|---|---|
| Heathrow Airport | Wimbledon to Heathrow |
| Gatwick Airport | Gatwick to Wimbledon |
| Stansted Airport | Private transfer available on request |
| Luton Airport | Private transfer available on request |
| London City Airport | Private transfer available on request |
Travelling to Wimbledon with Children
Families attending Wimbledon should plan the complete journey rather than only the final part of the route.
Consider:
- How much walking the children can comfortably manage
- Whether you will be carrying bags
- Weather conditions
- Toilet and refreshment stops
- Potential queues
- Travel home after the match
- Whether a direct private transfer would be more convenient
If booking a private vehicle, tell the operator the ages of the children and whether a child seat is required so the appropriate arrangement can be confirmed before travel.
Travelling to Wimbledon with Luggage
Visitors arriving from an airport may have considerably more luggage than someone travelling locally.
When using public transport, remember that you may need to carry your luggage through stations, up or down stairs and along crowded walking routes.
When booking a private transfer, provide the number and approximate size of your suitcases. Passenger capacity and luggage capacity are not always the same, particularly when travelling with a full vehicle.
For larger groups, a Mercedes V-Class or another suitable people carrier may provide more useful luggage capacity than trying to fit everyone and their bags into a standard saloon.
Getting to Wimbledon with Tennis Equipment
If you are attending Wimbledon with tennis rackets, equipment bags or other sporting equipment, mention this when making your travel arrangements.
Vehicle luggage capacity should be considered alongside the number of passengers.
A vehicle that technically accommodates the number of passengers may not necessarily have sufficient space for several large bags and sports equipment.
Wimbledon Pick-Up and Drop-Off
Event-day pickup and drop-off arrangements should always be checked against the latest official Wimbledon information.
Official Wimbledon guidance has identified designated areas for pre-booked taxi and ride-hailing services and separate arrangements for Blue Badge passengers.
During The Championships, road closures, one-way systems, pedestrian controls and event security can affect where vehicles are permitted to stop.
A private-hire driver may therefore need to use the designated pickup or drop-off point rather than attempting to drive directly to a particular gate.
For a return journey, passengers should follow the instructions provided by the driver and event stewards on the day.
Driving to Wimbledon Tennis
Driving to Wimbledon can be convenient for some visitors, but The Championships create exceptionally high demand around the local roads.
Visitors should not assume that a normal Google Maps journey time will apply during a busy Wimbledon session.
Traffic management measures, temporary restrictions, pedestrian routes and parking arrangements can be introduced around the event.
If you are driving, allow substantial additional time and use official event signage to reach the correct parking facility.
Sat Nav Address for Wimbledon
The All England Club occupies the area around Church Road and Wimbledon Park. Historical Wimbledon travel guidance has recommended using the relevant SW19 postcodes carefully when navigating to the Grounds.
Because temporary event traffic arrangements can change, visitors should follow current Wimbledon road signs and police or steward instructions rather than relying entirely on an old saved Sat Nav destination.
If your booking confirmation provides a designated pickup or drop-off location, use that location rather than simply entering the general AELTC address.
It would be ideal if you follow the signposted proper routes to your auto park. Phone before you go – call AA Roadwatch on 090 6888 4322 for the most recent reports on movement hold-ups and roadworks.
Nearby Traffic Arrangements

No halting or stopping is allowed in any of the streets around the All England Club amid The Championships. Irritating cars will be evacuated. Every effort will be made to keep traffic moving in the area around the All England Club. One-way and no-ceasing systems and other vehicle limitations will be in operation.
If it’s not too much trouble watch the signs and take police directions under all circumstances. It would be ideal if you take note that there is a charge for all parking in assigned auto parks.
Parking at Wimbledon During The Championships
Parking arrangements during The Championships are different from ordinary days in Wimbledon.
There is significant demand for parking, and visitors should not expect normal on-street parking to be available close to the Grounds.
Some roads can be subject to restrictions and temporary traffic-management measures.
Where parking is available, follow the official Wimbledon instructions for the relevant Championships year and pre-book where required.
Do not rely on historical parking prices or car-park numbers published in older online guides because these arrangements can change from one tournament to another.
Blue Badge and Accessible Travel to Wimbledon
Visitors with accessibility requirements should plan their journey before travelling.
Official Wimbledon accessibility guidance provides information about step-free transport, accessible routes and designated Blue Badge drop-off arrangements.
Southfields and Wimbledon stations have accessibility information published by Transport for London, but visitors should check the current status before travelling because lift availability and station access can change.
If arranging a private vehicle, explain your accessibility requirements when booking. This allows the operator to determine the most appropriate vehicle and pickup arrangement.
How Early Should You Arrive at Wimbledon?
There is no single arrival time suitable for every ticket holder.
Allow enough time for:
- Your journey to Wimbledon
- Walking from the station or drop-off point
- Queues
- Ticket checks
- Security screening
- Finding your entrance
- Finding your court or seat
- Unexpected transport delays
If you are travelling from an airport, allow additional contingency time because airport arrival procedures and road traffic are outside your control.
For an important match or court session, arriving early is generally more practical than planning to arrive immediately before the scheduled start.
Leaving Wimbledon After the Tennis
The return journey is often overlooked when visitors plan their trip.
At the end of a major session, large numbers of spectators leave the Grounds at approximately the same time. This can make stations, taxi ranks, buses and local roads significantly busier.
If you have a train or flight to catch, do not assume that the return journey will take the same amount of time as the outward journey.
If using a private transfer, arrange the pickup instructions before entering the Grounds and keep your driver’s contact details available.
Official Wimbledon guidance provides specific exit routes towards Southfields and Wimbledon and identifies designated taxi and transport areas. Follow the latest signs and steward instructions on the day.
Wimbledon Travel Tips for First-Time Visitors
- Check the official Wimbledon travel information before travelling.
- Check your ticket and entrance details carefully.
- Allow extra time for crowds and queues.
- Wear comfortable shoes.
- Check the weather forecast.
- Carry only what is permitted under the current Wimbledon entry rules.
- Check your route again before leaving.
- Do not rely on old 2017 or earlier parking information.
- Arrange your return journey before the end of play.
- If travelling from an airport, allow a realistic traffic and travel buffer.

| Consideration | Public Transport | Private Transfer |
|---|---|---|

| Luggage | Passenger carries luggage | Driver assists where appropriate |

Why Book a Wimbledon Private Transfer in Advance?
Wimbledon is one of the busiest sporting events in London’s calendar. Planning your transport before the day can reduce uncertainty, particularly when travelling from an airport or when you have a fixed appointment.
With a pre-booked private transfer, the journey can be planned around your arrival or departure requirements.
For airport arrivals, provide your flight number so that the booking can be coordinated with the flight information and airport pickup arrangements.
For Wimbledon pickups, the exact meeting point should be confirmed in advance because event-day restrictions can affect where vehicles can legally stop.
Wimbledon Chauffeur Service
For corporate guests, VIP visitors, tennis professionals, hospitality guests and customers seeking executive travel, an advance chauffeur booking can provide a more tailored travel experience.
Executive vehicles such as a Mercedes E-Class or larger Mercedes vehicle can be requested depending on availability and passenger requirements.
If you require a chauffeur for several hours rather than a single transfer, ask for an hourly chauffeur quotation based on your itinerary.
For Wimbledon hospitality and corporate travel, provide the complete itinerary when requesting a quotation so that vehicle availability and waiting requirements can be assessed accurately.
Wimbledon Transfers from London Hotels
Visitors staying in London hotels can also pre-book a private transfer to Wimbledon.
This can be useful when several guests are travelling together or when passengers prefer to avoid changing public transport services.
When booking, provide:
- Hotel name
- Full hotel address
- Pickup time
- Number of passengers
- Number of suitcases
- Any child-seat requirements
- Preferred vehicle type
- Return journey details if required
Wimbledon to Heathrow Airport
After the tennis, many international visitors need to travel directly from Wimbledon to Heathrow Airport.
Because the time between leaving the Wimbledon Grounds and checking in for an international flight can be critical, allow a generous journey buffer.
Traffic around Wimbledon and the wider London road network can be unpredictable after major events.
See our Wimbledon to Heathrow transfer service.
Wimbledon to Gatwick Airport
Visitors flying from Gatwick can arrange a direct private transfer from Wimbledon to Gatwick Airport.
This can be particularly useful for families and groups carrying luggage after spending the day at The Championships.
