Concerts and Theatre, Without the Exit Queue
Concert and theatre chauffeur for First Direct Arena, Leeds Grand and Harrogate Theatre. In position before the final bow, home without the taxi queue.
Getting to a show is easy. Getting home from one is the problem. When several thousand people leave an arena at once, taxis disappear, car parks jam and the last train goes without you. We solve the second half of the evening by being outside before the show ends.
Venues we run to
The First Direct Arena in Leeds, the Leeds Grand Theatre, Harrogate Theatre and the Piece Hall summer series all share the same egress problem, and so do the larger concerts in York. The pattern is the same everywhere: drop close to the door, then pre-position before the end.
How the evening runs
We track the published show times, so the car is in position before the final bow rather than setting off when you call.
- Collection from home with time for dinner first if you want it
- Set-down as close to the entrance as the venue allows
- Pick-up point agreed in advance, away from the worst of the crowd
- Home in one fixed price, with no late night surge
Which car for which group
For a couple, the silver Mercedes-Benz V-Class. Our silver Mercedes-Benz V-Class is a luxury MPV seating up to 7 passengers with generous luggage space, suited to executive groups, airport transfers, weddings and events.
When to book
If you are staying over in Leeds or York after the show, we can drop at your hotel instead of home, and collect again the next morning as a separate fixed journey. Tell us the plan when you enquire and it goes into one written quote. Two to six weeks ahead is usually enough. For the biggest concerts, book as soon as you have tickets, because every chauffeur in the area is booked for the same night.
Common questions
What if the show overruns?
We track show times and wait. The car is in position before the end and stays until you are out.
Can we have dinner before the show?
Yes. Build a restaurant stop into the booking and it is covered by the same fixed price.
Do you cover evening performances in York and Harrogate as well as Leeds?
Yes. Our regular patch covers Leeds, York, Harrogate and the surrounding towns.
