Getting to The Hive Stadium
Use Queensbury on the Jubilee line for the simplest confirmed approach to The Hive. Barnet's September 2025 closure notice directs supporters to this station while the Whitchurch Lane entrance is out of use.

Put your trip together
01 · Arrive
Your route into The Hive Stadium
Head to the Camrose Avenue stadium entrance rather than the old pedestrian gate on Whitchurch Lane. Barnet announced that the Whitchurch Lane entrance would close for works and told supporters to approach from Queensbury via Turner Road. The club's general directions have not been updated consistently, so follow the closure notice unless stewards confirm a reopening. Visiting supporters are ordinarily accommodated in Stand 66, the North Stand, with their own ticket and turnstile arrangements. From the Camrose Avenue entrance, follow the signs around the ground to the away ticket office and North Stand turnstiles rather than joining home queues. The precise gate on your ticket takes priority if the allocation changes. Allow extra walking time if you arrive at Canons Park by habit, as reaching Camrose Avenue may require a longer route around the site.
Whitchurch Lane Entrance Closed ↗02 · Reach the away end
After the match
For the simplest onward journey, walk to Queensbury and take the Jubilee line after the match. This keeps you away from the one-exit stadium car park, which visiting-club guides warn can be slow to clear. Allow time to get around the ground and back to Turner Road, especially if your return train connects with a mainline departure. If you drove, expect Camrose Avenue to be busy as supporters leave and avoid planning a tight motorway or rail connection. Parking at Canons Park station, rather than inside The Hive, may reduce time spent queuing at the stadium exit, although the pedestrian route must account for the unresolved Whitchurch Lane closure. For late kick-offs, check the last useful Jubilee or Northern line connection before the game. Cup extra time can make a tight return plan unreliable.
Getting Here ↗03 · Stay or head home?
Choose your base before your hotel
Stay around Wembley Park if you want restaurants and a proper evening out after the football. Its Jubilee-line station connects directly to Queensbury, and the area has a much broader choice of food and bars than the residential streets around The Hive.

Use Queensbury on the Jubilee line for the simplest confirmed approach to The Hive. Barnet's September 2025 closure notice directs supporters to this station while the Whitchurch Lane entrance is out of use. From Queensbury, follow Turner Road to Camrose Avenue and the stadium entrance; the club describes the walk as around ten minutes.
Canons Park is physically the closest Tube stop, but do not assume you can use its short Whitchurch Lane entrance. The club's general travel page still recommends that gate, despite its later closure notice. Edgware on the Northern line is another option, around a mile away, with buses towards Canons Park or Camrose Avenue.
Check your Jubilee line journey before travelling, especially for evening matches. Neither Canons Park nor Queensbury should be assumed to offer step-free station access without a fresh TfL accessibility check.

Buses & local travel
Use the Jubilee line to Queensbury and walk along Turner Road while the Whitchurch Lane entrance remains closed. It is a straightforward option from central London via Wembley Park and avoids driving into the stadium site. Check the fixture's TfL service notices before relying on a particular connection.
If you arrive at Edgware on the Northern line, routes 79, 186 and 340 serve the Canons Park area. Barnet also lists route 288 towards Camrose Avenue and route 114 towards Turner Road. Because the short Canons Park site entrance was closed, choose a stop that leaves you with a manageable walk to Camrose Avenue rather than assuming the nearest stop gives direct stadium access.
Allow for matchday boarding crowds, particularly if travelling back via Queensbury after the final whistle.

Accessible journeys
Contact Barnet before travelling if you need wheelchair seating, an accessible parking bay or help reaching the away end. Level Playing Field lists 16 visiting wheelchair positions and two away accessible toilets, while the club describes six wider Blue Badge bays in its main car park. Spaces are not presented as bookable, so ask the club about your fixture before setting off.
Barnet's accessibility contact can advise on seating and any assistance required. Because the Whitchurch Lane stadium gate has been subject to a prolonged closure, confirm the accessible route from Camrose Avenue. Do not assume either nearby Jubilee-line station offers step-free access without checking TfL's current station accessibility information.
The ground address is Camrose Avenue, HA8 6AG, and the club's main telephone number is 020 8381 3800.

Where to stay
Stay around Wembley Park if you want restaurants and a proper evening out after the football. Its Jubilee-line station connects directly to Queensbury, and the area has a much broader choice of food and bars than the residential streets around The Hive. Check Wembley Stadium and arena event dates before booking, because demand can change prices and crowding significantly. Queensbury or Edgware make more sense if you want a practical room close to the ground and less interest in nightlife. Queensbury gives you the straightforward Turner Road walk, while Edgware has Northern-line access and local buses but is farther from the stadium. For a trip based around central London sightseeing or a long-distance train home, a hotel near a suitable Jubilee-line interchange may be easier than staying next to the stadium. There is no need to book accommodation simply because you're attending Barnet.
Getting Here ↗Choose Wembley Park if this is a football weekend rather than simply a bed beside the ground: it gives you restaurants, pubs and BOXPARK before or after the match, then a straightforward Jubilee-line trip to Canons Park. Choose Queensbury/Edgware instead if keeping the room cost down and minimising the walk to The Hive matter more than nightlife or hotel facilities.
For the evening
Wembley Park is the strongest nearby evening base. BOXPARK has multiple bars and a large street-food line-up, with further pubs, restaurants and bars around Olympic Way and the London Designer Outlet. It is more event-led than a traditional town centre, but it gives an overnight supporter far more choice than the stadium area.
For the train
Canons Park is the nearest Tube station to The Hive on the Jubilee line; away-supporter guidance puts the stadium entrance about two minutes away. Queensbury, also on the Jubilee line, is about a ten-minute walk. Edgware is on the Northern line and about a mile from the ground, so it is less direct for a matchday hotel even though it has more conventional accommodation.
