When we used to go to Wembley for the England games, we would leave the M40 at J1 (Denham). The train station is just 5 mins from the exit and has FREE PARKING ALL DAY. The station is on the Wembley line

[kohan]

Is there going to be parking at the stadium and what will the cost be?

I believe it will be standard Wembley event parking.  Further details to follow.

Just looked at the official Wembley parking page - £27.75 per day, plus £2.75 fee.  Wow!

  there is generally parking for about £10 just outside the car park on all event days

Do we know what "on the pitch" means yet? I"m guessing we won"t be on the grass, in boots and shin pads, and at the mercy of wind and rain. So is it marquees? Or a massive temporary roof? Or lead playing cards and pub style umbrellas? Or what? Doesn"t really matter if we don"t know yet, and we"ll obviously find out on the day. Just wondering!

They are creating a "poker village" on the pitch to ensure everyones comfort and enjoyment.

Players will walk down through the Bobby Moore stand onto the pitch to get a unique poker experience.

Or are we not that special

Yes. And as far as I know, we"re the only side event to be taking place here. (all the others are indoors).

Have the crew from DTD / ISPT organised something with regard to parking? I have been to lots of smaller events at Wembley with work and usually something is organised. Can anyone clarify?

[Des]

We"re looking for additional information from DTD on a few items like parking JP, will publish as soon as we have a response.
