Few places in London are as busy as Stratford on a big day. Between the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, the London Stadium, Westfield Stratford City and one of the capital's major rail interchanges, the area is a constant arrival point for visitors, fans and groups.
Event days at the Olympic Park and the London Stadium
Football matches, concerts and other events draw large crowds, and getting a group in and out is the hard part. A coach or minibus booked in advance keeps everyone together, with a pick-up and a return agreed before the day. Our pages on football and sporting events and concerts and live events explain how we plan these.
- Supporter groups and clubs travelling together
- Corporate guests invited to an event
- Friends and families heading to a concert
- Teams and performers needing a vehicle with space for kit
One of London's busiest interchanges
Stratford station brings together the Central, Jubilee and Elizabeth lines, the DLR, London Overground and Greater Anglia, with Stratford International nearby. Groups arriving by train and heading elsewhere can be met and moved on in a single vehicle, and individual travellers with luggage can be collected from the door.
Shopping, hotels and visitors
With Westfield Stratford City and a cluster of hotels on the doorstep, Stratford is a natural base for visitors. We handle airport transfers for guests, and sightseeing tours for groups who want a driver and vehicle for the day.
Film, music and creative work
East London's creative industries have a strong presence around the Olympic Park. Productions that need vehicles for talent or crew can read about our music video and photoshoot car hire.
Making an event day run smoothly
Large crowds make any journey harder. A few agreements in advance help a great deal:
- Agree a meeting point for the end of the event, away from the busiest exits
- Give us the expected finish time, and tell us if the event may overrun
- Check the arrival and drop-off arrangements set by the event organiser and pass them on
- Keep one lead contact per group, so we can reach someone on the day
Hotels and visitors staying in Stratford
Guests staying near Stratford station or Westfield can be collected from the hotel and taken to the airport, to a venue or to a day of sightseeing. We also provide groups with a driver and vehicle for central London; see London sightseeing tours.
