TL;DR: There is no general public parking at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The best option for the 2026/27 season is to pre-book a secure space at the MatchdayParking.com car park on Wilbury Way, Edmonton (N18 1DE) — a 20–25 minute walk from the ground, outside the event day road-closure zone, typically £10–£20 per match. Street parking near the stadium risks a £160 Penalty Charge Notice and towing under Haringey’s Event Day Controlled Parking Zone.

Can you park at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
No — Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has no matchday parking for general-admission supporters. The club officially advises fans not to drive to the stadium at all. The only on-site parking is a limited number of accessible spaces for Blue Badge holders, which must be booked in advance through the club’s Disability Access Scheme — and even those sit inside the matchday road-closure zone, so disabled supporters need to arrive early and wait after the final whistle before leaving.
For everyone else, the choice is simple: use public transport, or pre-book an off-site car park a sensible walk from the ground. This guide covers both, with everything you need to know for the 2026/27 season.
🅿️ Where is the best place to park for Tottenham matches in 2026/27?
The most reliable option is the pre-bookable MatchdayParking.com car park at Wilbury Way, Edmonton, London N18 1DE. It is a gated, marshalled site about a mile north of the stadium — a flat 20–25 minute walk down the High Road — and, crucially, it sits outside the event day road-closure zone. That means you can drive straight in before the match and drive straight out afterwards, rather than being locked in for an hour after full time like vehicles parked inside the closure area.
Spaces are sold per event and sell out for the biggest fixtures, so book as soon as your matchday plans are confirmed. Bookings for the whole 2026/27 season — from the pre-season friendly against TSG Hoffenheim on 15 August right through to Manchester United on the final day in May 2027 — are open now on our Tottenham Hotspur parking page.
The car park opens at 12:00 for 3pm kick-offs and at 17:00 for 8pm kick-offs (for NFL and other special events, entry is from 12:00 — strictly no earlier). Gates are locked one hour after the final whistle and there is no overnight parking, so collect your car within an hour of full time. If you use what3words, the entrance is at ///solved.shine.desk.
Why pre-booked beats on-the-day parking at Tottenham
- Guaranteed space: your bay is reserved before you leave home — no circling residential streets with 60,000 other fans arriving.
- Fixed price: you pay the advertised price at booking. Peer-to-peer apps and informal matchday lots use surge pricing that can more than double on the day of a big fixture.
- Outside the closure zone: no waiting an hour after the final whistle to get your car out.
- Security: gated entry and staff on site for the duration of the event.
How much does parking cost near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Expect to pay roughly £10–£20 for pre-booked secure parking, and considerably more — with real risk — for the alternatives. Here is how the main options compare for the 2026/27 season:
| Option | Typical price | Walk to stadium | Key risk / note |
|---|---|---|---|
| MatchdayParking.com (Wilbury Way, N18 1DE) | £10–£20 | 20–25 min | Pre-book; outside road-closure zone |
| Peer-to-peer driveways (JustPark etc.) | £15–£30+ | Varies | Surge pricing on big fixtures; variable access |
| Tottenham Hale station car park | £5–£10 | 25–30 min | Fills early; post-match crowds at the station |
| Street parking near the ground | “Free” | — | Event Day CPZ: £160 PCN and possible towing |
| Stadium car park | N/A | — | Blue Badge holders only, pre-booked via the club |
⚠️ Tottenham event day parking restrictions and road closures, explained
On any event at the stadium expected to draw more than 10,000 people, Haringey Council activates an Event Day Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) across the streets around the ground. During these hours, kerbside parking is effectively reserved for residents and businesses with permits. The event day restrictions operate:
- Monday to Friday: 5pm – 8:30pm
- Saturday: 12 noon – 8pm
- Sunday and bank holidays: 12 noon – 8pm
The zone takes in the Northumberland Park West, The Hale, Tottenham Hale North, Tottenham Event Day, Tower Gardens and White Hart Lane CPZs, plus Willoughby Lane. Enforcement is active on matchdays: parking in a suspended bay or permit space risks a higher-level Penalty Charge Notice of £160 (reduced to £80 if paid within 14 days), and Haringey uses traffic marshals and removal vehicles, so cars can be towed to the pound.
On top of the CPZ, roads immediately around the stadium close in phases — starting around two hours before kick-off, tightening an hour before, and staying closed until roughly an hour after the final whistle. Only emergency services, residents and authorised vehicles can move inside the closure zone during that window, and vehicles parked inside it cannot leave until it reopens. This is the single biggest reason to park outside the zone and walk in.
How far is the MatchdayParking.com car park from the stadium?
About one mile — a 20–25 minute walk. From Wilbury Way (N18 1DE), head south towards Fore Street/High Road (A1010) and follow it straight down to the stadium at 782 High Road, N17 0BX. It is a simple, well-lit main-road route walked by plenty of fans on matchdays, and you will be walking against the worst of the traffic rather than sitting in it.
What time should you arrive for a match at Tottenham?
Aim to park 90 minutes to two hours before kick-off. That clears the road closures (which begin around two hours pre-match), gives you an unhurried walk to the ground, and leaves time for food or the fan zone. The car park opens three hours before kick-off (12:00 for a 3pm game, 17:00 for an 8pm game), so early arrivals are never left waiting at the gate. For high-demand fixtures — the North London Derby, Champions League nights, or the first home game of the season — err on the side of two hours.
The 2026/27 season at N17 starts with a pre-season friendly against TSG Hoffenheim on Saturday 15 August 2026, before Spurs open the Premier League campaign away at Brentford on 22 August and welcome Newcastle United for the first home league game on Saturday 29 August 2026 (kick-off times can move for TV, so check before you travel). Early-season fixtures at N17 also include Everton (12 September), Aston Villa (19 September) and Coventry City (17 October) — book parking for these as early as you can.
🚆 Public transport alternatives to driving
If you would rather not drive, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is well served by rail:
- White Hart Lane (London Overground): the closest station, around a 5-minute walk from the stadium. Expect heavy queues after the final whistle.
- Seven Sisters (Victoria line): roughly a 30-minute walk, or a short bus ride up the High Road.
- Tottenham Hale (Victoria line and Greater Anglia): around 25–30 minutes on foot, with national rail connections towards Stansted and Cambridge.
- Buses: routes 149, 259, 279 and 476 all serve the stadium area.
A popular hybrid approach for fans driving from outside London is “park and stride”: park at a pre-booked car park like Wilbury Way and walk in, avoiding both central-London congestion and the post-match crush at White Hart Lane station.
🎤 Parking for concerts and events at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
The stadium is now one of London’s biggest concert and events venues, hosting major tours, NFL London games and boxing alongside Spurs fixtures. The same rules apply on event days as on matchdays: no public parking at the stadium, the Event Day CPZ in force, and phased road closures. For concerts and non-football events, pre-book your space through our sister site ConcertParking.com.

Frequently asked questions
Is there parking at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on matchdays?
No. The stadium has no parking for general-admission fans. Only pre-booked Blue Badge spaces are available through the club’s Disability Access Scheme. All other supporters should use public transport or pre-book an off-site car park such as MatchdayParking.com’s Wilbury Way site (N18 1DE).
Can I park on the street near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Not realistically. Haringey’s Event Day CPZ covers the streets around the stadium whenever an event over 10,000 attendance is on, reserving kerbside space for permit holders. Non-permit vehicles risk a £160 Penalty Charge Notice and being towed to the car pound.
How much is matchday parking near Tottenham?
Pre-booked secure parking through MatchdayParking.com typically costs £10–£20 per match. Peer-to-peer driveway apps often charge £15–£30 or more, with prices surging for big fixtures. Booking early locks in the lowest price.
How far in advance should I book Tottenham parking?
As soon as your matchday plans are confirmed. Spaces are limited and the biggest fixtures — derbies, European nights and the opening home game of the season — regularly sell out days or weeks ahead.
What time do the road closures start at Tottenham?
Closures begin in phases from around two hours before kick-off, tighten an hour before, and remain in place until roughly an hour after the final whistle. Vehicles parked inside the closure zone cannot leave during that window.
Can I leave straight after the match if I park at Wilbury Way?
Yes. The Wilbury Way car park (N18 1DE) is outside the road-closure zone, so you can drive away as soon as you are back at your car — one of the main advantages over parking closer to the ground. Note that gates are locked one hour after the final whistle and there is no overnight parking, so head back within the hour.
What time does the Tottenham car park open on matchdays?
Three hours before kick-off: 12:00 for a 3pm kick-off and 17:00 for an 8pm kick-off. For NFL and other special events, entry is from 12:00, with strictly no admission earlier. The entrance is at what3words ///solved.shine.desk.
Is the car park safe to leave my car in during the match?
Yes. The site is gated and staffed for the duration of the event, and your registration is checked against the booking list on arrival.
Does the same parking advice apply to concerts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Yes. The Event Day CPZ and road closures operate for any event over 10,000 attendance, including concerts and NFL games. For non-football events, book through ConcertParking.com.
Is there accessible parking at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
A limited number of Blue Badge spaces are available at the stadium, pre-booked through Tottenham Hotspur’s Disability Access Scheme. Blue Badge holders also retain their normal parking rights within the Event Day CPZ.
What is the nearest station to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
White Hart Lane on the London Overground, about a five-minute walk from the ground. Seven Sisters and Tottenham Hale (both Victoria line) are 25–30 minutes on foot.
Can I park at Tottenham Hale and walk to the stadium?
Yes — the station car park costs around £5–£10 for the day and the walk is 25–30 minutes. It fills up early on matchdays, though, and you will share the post-match area with heavy station crowds, so a pre-booked space is more predictable.
When is Tottenham’s first home game of the 2026/27 season?
Saturday 29 August 2026, against Newcastle United, after the season opener away at Brentford on 22 August. Kick-off times can change for TV coverage, so confirm before travelling — and book your parking as soon as tickets are secured.
