Default East Kent -- Wembley

Travelling from east Kent to the Wembley Arena this week. Don't want to
use public transport all the way because I'd like to get home in time to
get some sleep before it's time to get up for work the following
orning - but don't think it is really practical to drive all the way.
We're considering parking in the car-park by the dome and then using the
Jubilee line.

Questions:-

Is that big car-park still open?
How expensive to park there?
Is it open until late in the evening so that we can get the car back?

Would anybody have any other suggestions?

Tube Car Park info is here

North Greenwich car park does get very busy indeed on weekdays so it may
not be your absolute best choice if you intend arriving after the
morning peak. Your basic idea is a good one though.

We wouldm't be arriving until about 5 p.m. and leaving some time after
11. I presume that would be OK.

You will start to see people heading away from the area at that time so
you should get a space.

Parking at 'nog' is a fiver and the car park is open 24 hrs.The Jubilee
to Wembley Park and a short walk would be the best route.Last train
back to nog would be around midnight,geting you back to the car park at
approx 0100 hrs.

Regards
Chris ( LUL Staff ex Jubilee Line)
