Booking Procedure

To ensure the operation of Emirates Stadium runs as smoothly as possible for spectators, local residents and businesses, Arsenal Football Club has introduced a booking procedure for supporter coach travel. If you do not follow the simple three step procedure (as below) your coach will not be able to park at Emirates Stadium. 

Step One: Your Club / Coach Company must register with Arsenal Football Club if they intend to travel to Emirates Stadium by coach, by completing the attached form at least 7 days before a match. This simple registration form asks for coach and travel information (e.g., departure time, number of passengers, on-coach contact, vehicle registration etc.). 

Step Two: Once the registration form has been received, Arsenal Football Club will e-mail each Club a coach identification permits along with directions on how to get to Emirates Stadium and which area they will be parked in. 

Step Three: Coaches must arrive between four and two hours before the start of a match. Coaches must also display their identification permit clearly in the front windscreen of the vehicle. 

Access

All access routes to the Queensland Road coach parking site will be closed by the Metropolitan Police Service 2 hours before the start of a match. Coaches arriving after this will not be permitted into the area and will not be allocated a parking space. 

Further information

For non-matchday parking, please be aware that local parking restrictions apply and there are no coach parking facilities. For further details, please visit https://www.islington.gov.uk/parking/parking-restrictions
