Getting to the Emirates

The Piccadilly line will be running a reduced service. As services are expected to be very busy, we encourage supporters not to travel on this line and consider alternative options.

Finsbury Park and Highbury & Islington stations are less than a 20-minute walk from the Emirates and are served by the following alternative lines:

  • Finsbury Park - Victoria line, Great Northern Rail
  • Highbury & Islington - Victoria line, Mildmay and Windrush lines, North London line, Great Northern Rail

Fans are advised to avoid interchanging at King’s Cross St. Pancras where possible as the station is expected to be very busy.

Some short-term safety measures such as queueing, station closures, or changes to station entrances/exits may be necessary. Additionally, please note that Holloway Road station will be exit-only before and after the match with pre-match eastbound trains not stopping. Drayton Park is closed on matchdays.

We encourage fans to plan their journey ahead, allow extra time for their travel, and check TfL channels on the day for transport updates. Supporters travelling by National Rail services are encouraged to check www.nationalrail.co.uk before travelling.
