How do I get a taxi after an AO Arena event?

Pre-book both legs in one booking — driver waits at the pre-agreed pickup point on Trinity Way or Todd Street. You avoid the post-event cab-rank queue entirely.

Where does the driver drop me off at AO Arena?

The main event drop-off is on Trinity Way; short-stay drop-off is 3–5 minutes walk from the arena entrance. Our drivers know the current diversions and access controls.

Can I book a large 8-seater for a group event night?

Yes. 8-seater MPVs are available for group nights out — book early on big-name concerts to guarantee availability.
