Leicester to The City Ground and back: fixed fares
Rushxo covers Leicester to The City Ground for every fixture and festival, in both directions. A saloon from Leicester to The City Ground is a fixed fare from £87 each way, about 24 miles and 44-65 min door to door.

An 8-seater for a group is from £126, executive cars on request.

Pick-up in Leicester, drop-off at The City Ground
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Leicester or the Leicestershire towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At The City Ground we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for Nottingham Forest match days when the roads around the venue are closed.
The drive is about 24 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.
The City Ground to Leicester: the journey home
The City Ground to Leicester 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 Nottingham Forest match days, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Leicester. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at The City Ground
For Nottingham Forest 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 Leicester 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.
