    If you have a blue disabled parking badge you can park under the stadium.
    I spoke to the club last season about access for a disabled fan and found them to be very helpful.

    Hi,

    I would call the club & see if they can help.

    Have you tried calling club .... but I would also expect that there are plenty of car parking sites close to the ground - of course they will charge - maybe £10+ ... have you looked on an Arsenal supporters forum ... asked there??

    Pay and display is near by, but how quickly it fills on match day is questionable. I'd say you'd need to get the tube at least one stop though.

    There are quite of few of these around. The only thing you would have to watch is that the roads very near to the stadium are closed to traffic before and after the game. So you would have to drop off at the ground in plenty of time and have to wait a bit afterwards to pick up again.
