Eastbourne to St Mary's Stadium taxi and St Mary's Stadium to Eastbourne after the event, fixed fare from £224 each way

Eastbourne to St Mary's Stadium and back: fixed fares

Rushxo covers Eastbourne to St Mary's Stadium for every fixture and festival, in both directions. A saloon from Eastbourne to St Mary's Stadium is a fixed fare from £224 each way, about 85 miles and 2.1-3.0 hrs door to door. Book the return with it and the pair is priced at 1.8 times a single, from £403, with the driver waiting at the agreed meeting point after Southampton match days. An 8-seater for a group is from £325, executive cars on request.

Fares are per car, agreed at booking, and include tolls and any London charges where they apply. No meter, no surge, the same price after the last encore.

Pick-up in Eastbourne, drop-off at St Mary's Stadium

Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Eastbourne or the East Sussex towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At St Mary's Stadium we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Southampton match days when the roads around the venue are closed.

The drive is about 85 miles; the driver checks closures and event-day traffic orders and picks the fastest route on the day, so the time above already allows for normal traffic.

St Mary's Stadium to Eastbourne: the journey home

St Mary's Stadium to Eastbourne is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of Southampton match days, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Eastbourne. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.

Event days at St Mary's Stadium

For Southampton match days we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Eastbourne for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
