Arsenal FC (Emirates) Avenell Rd, Highbury, London, N5 1BU General Information Line: Piccadilly Line to Arsenal Travel time from Piccadilly Circus: 15 minutes Walking time from station to the ground: 5 minutes Alternatives: Finsbury Park (on the Victoria Line, or by National Rail from King‘s Cross) is in reasonable walking distance (about 15 minutes). You can also take the Victoria Line to Highbury and Islington and walk down the High Street right to the ground. After the final whistle: The Arsenal tube station is extremely crowded after the match and it might take quite some time to get into a train. If you‘re not up for waiting, you might want to walk the 5 minutes to the next tube station (Finsbury Park), which is served by Victoria and Piccadilly Line, as well as by National Rail (Oyter Cards are valid between Finsbury Park and King‘s Cross!). Another good option is to walk down Holloway Road to the Highbury and Islington Station (approx. A 10 minute walk). Please note : The National Rail station „Drayton Park“ which is very close to the ground is closed on weekends! Additionally, the tube station Holloway Road, which is also close to the ground is more or less closed on matchdays, due to capacity problems. by londonfootballguide.com.
