Event Transfers
Every event ends the same way: thousands of people leaving at once and no cab within a mile. The answer is a return booked in advance with a pick-up point a few minutes' walk from the gates, where a car can stop.
Book the way home first
It is the most useful thing we can tell you. The return is held at a fixed price, and we agree a street or landmark where a car can wait, which is far quicker than trying to reach the main gate.
Venues we know
Ashton Gate, the Memorial Stadium, Bristol Beacon, the Hippodrome, the O2 Academy, Ashton Court for the Balloon Fiesta and the Harbourside festivals. Each has its own traffic pattern on an event night.
Further afield
The Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Cheltenham Racecourse, Twickenham, the NEC and the London arenas. Long-distance event runs are fixed-price too, with the driver waiting or returning as agreed.
Groups
Eight people in one vehicle arrive together and leave together. It is cheaper than separate cars and nobody ends up at the wrong entrance.
Count the cases, then pick the car.
Count the passengers, then count the large suitcases separately: the second number is the one that decides it.
