Ahead of Sunday's 2019 Emirates Cup, we want to ensure a smooth process for our supporters entering the stadium.
We strongly recommend all fans get to Emirates Stadium by 11.30am, one hour before kick-off of the first fixture, to allow time for additional security checks including searches outside and at the turnstiles.
To help with your planning, please find below some important information:
Train travel
Arsenal (Piccadilly Line) is the nearest tube station, around three minutes’ walk from the ground. Finsbury Park (Victoria, Piccadilly Lines and Great Northern rail) and Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line, North London Line and Great Northern rail) stations are around a 10-minute walk - these should be slightly less crowded.
King's Cross is the main connecting station for national rail and many underground lines. From here you can travel to the ground via the Piccadilly Line (to Arsenal) or the Victoria Line (to Highbury & Islington). Alternatively, a short overground rail journey of one stop will take you to Finsbury Park station.
