Door to door it works out at roughly 26 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 50 min off-peak becomes 1h 05m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock. --- ## Where we meet you at Reading Festival Caversham Road or the Richfield Avenue rendezvous point set for the weekend. Richfield Avenue closes to general traffic across the weekend, so pickups run from the signed rendezvous on Caversham Road. **Address:** Richfield Avenue, Reading, RG1 8EQ. --- ## Pickups across Oxford We pick up anywhere in Oxford and the surrounding Oxfordshire postcodes - OX1, OX2, OX3, OX4. Home, office, hotel or station - the driver comes to the door and helps with bags. From Oxford the M40 J8, A34 route does most of the work, so the timing holds up even when the local roads are busy. --- ## When to leave Doors are usually an hour before the festival starts. Allowing 1h 05m for the drive from Oxford plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night. --- ## Getting back from Reading Festival Book both legs together and the driver is in position before the festival ends. Getting out of Reading Festival is the part that costs people an hour; this is how you skip it. The return to Oxford is the same £64. --- ## What every booking includes - A text with the driver's name, photo and registration before pickup - Waiting time included at the pickup point - Luggage carried and loaded - no per-bag charges - Available 24 hours a day, every day of the year - Card, bank transfer or business account, with a VAT receipt - Flight and event tracking, so delays do not change the price --- ## Oxford to Reading Festival - frequently asked questions How much is a taxi from Oxford to Reading Festival?

ABTA advises arriving at least two hours before departure, because the EES exit check can add time at busy airports. ### My flight home might land late because of EES queues. What happens to my transfer? Give your flight number when you book, so the driver can follow the actual landing time rather than the scheduled one. ### How does EES affect the 90/180-day rule? EES records every entry and exit digitally instead of relying on passport stamps, so days spent in the Schengen area are counted automatically and overstays are flagged. ### Do I need ETIAS as well? Not yet. ETIAS, the EU's separate online travel authorisation, has not launched, so there is nothing to apply for. The EU will announce a start date months in advance; until then, avoid websites that charge for it. EES is the EU's digital border check for non-EU travellers, fully in use since April 2026. It is not a visa. Checked September 2026; rules can change, so see the [EU Travel to Europe site](https://travel-europe.europa.eu/ees) before you travel.
