Wimbledon Finals Day: Best Drop‑Zone & Pickup Tips

Expect a 35‑minute glide from Mayfair, seamless drop at Southfields VIP Gate, zero surge pricing, and your driver ready curb‑side the moment the trophy is lifted. That’s stress‑free tennis travel.

Key Facts – Wimbledon Finals Day Travel

• Prime drop‑zone: Southfields VIP Gate on Wimbledon Park Road (accredited vehicles only)
• Typical chauffeur time, Mayfair → SW19: ≈ 35 min
• Road closures from 09:00 on Church Road & Somerset Road
• Complimentary OUNO wait time: 1 hour
• We don’t surge. We don’t cancel.

Demand spikes the moment Centre‑Court debenture tickets land in inboxes. So our advice: secure your ride now, as chauffeur slots vanish by early June. To make booking easier, we provide luxury car services all over London and can confirm your Wimbledon itinerary in minutes.

After dozens of Finals Days, these are the entrances we recommend:

• Southfields VIP Gate (Gate 4) – fastest pedestrian route to Centre Court.
• Gate 13 – Car Park 4 – handy for hospitality suites.
• Parkside Road taxi rank – public hire only; expect queues.

• City & Canary Wharf – A3 → Tibbet’s Corner; avoids Chelsea Embankment slowdown.
• Kensington & Knightsbridge – Cromwell Road → Putney Bridge → A219.
• Heathrow – M4 → Chiswick Flyover → A3; average 45 min mid‑morning.

Pick the car that fits your group and vibe—here’s our cheat‑sheet:

• Mercedes EQS (all‑electric) – 3 pax, 2 cases. Silent arrival; slips through EV lanes.
• Mercedes S‑Class – 3 pax, 2 cases. Executive staple; chilled water on ice.
• Mercedes V‑Class – 7 pax, 7 cases. Group travel without splitting cars.

Fixed fare shown up‑front. No 8‑hour minimum packages—pay for the journey, not the downtime.

Leaving Centre Court is where most travel plans unravel—here’s how we keep it smooth:

• Book a staggered pickup slot: 15, 30, or 45 min after match‑point to dodge gridlock.
• Use in‑app chat to drop a pin the moment you exit—your chauffeur moves in.
• One hour’s complimentary wait time; after that, capped at £15 per 15 min.

Merton Council imposes rolling closures on Church Road, Somerset Road, and Marryat Road from 09:00 until crowds disperse. Electric vehicles can access the Parkside EV lane—choose “Ride Electric” in the app for a smoother escape.

The Boodles at Stoke Park (24–28 June 2025) is the perfect warm‑up. Book the same chauffeur for both events:

• Stoke Park → SW19 average: 40 min via A3.
• Luggage stays on board; chilled water restocked between venues.

• No surge pricing. No cancellations.
• 100 % professional chauffeurs in suits.
• All‑electric or high‑spec Mercedes fleet.
• Real‑time tracking and in‑app chat.
• Edit or cancel free up to 1 hour before pickup.
• Download the app. Elevate your journey.

Does my driver need a special Wimbledon pass?
Yes. OUNO chauffeurs secure pre‑approved vehicle stickers so you’re dropped inside the official zone.

Can my chauffeur wait with the car all day?
Absolutely. One hour free, then a capped hourly rate—no nasty surprises.

Where will I meet my chauffeur after Wimbledon?
We recommend the Southfields VIP holding bay; your driver shares live location in‑app.

What if the match goes to a fifth set?
The booking auto‑extends; wait charges only start after the free hour.

Can I amend my pickup time on the day?
Yes—use the in‑app edit function up to one hour before the scheduled time, free of charge.
