How the day runs

The car comes to your address in Brighton. Choose a luxury people-carrier for a larger party. From there it is the A23, M23 and M25 to All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. For drop-off, the organisers' own rules apply. Church Road is partly closed. Ride-share cars cannot pass the closure and must use drop-off areas on Marryat Road and Wimbledon Park Road. Registered debenture holders can request a pass for private chauffeur drop-off/pick-up in Car Park 5. Blue Badge drop-off is opposite Gate 13, Somerset Road. All day the car stays on hand; a message brings it round. After the last of the day, it is about an hour and 20 minutes back to Brighton.
