HOW TO GET THERE

We've tried to make getting to Excursions very easy for visitors. There will be six FREE coaches coming from some major towns across the south, south east and south west of England - and there's another FREE coach coming from six central London mainline railway stations. For those arriving by train or Underground, we'll even meet you at the station and guide you to the FREE shuttle coach straight to the door of the show! If you prefer to travel by car, there's plenty of FREE parking when you get to Alexandra Palace.
