About London Film Festival

London Film Festival transfer service

The BFI London Film Festival takes over the capital each October — around two weeks of premieres, galas and screenings centred on BFI Southbank and the Royal Festival Hall, with red-carpet galas and further screenings across the West End's cinemas around Leicester Square. Evenings stack up: a 6pm screening on the Southbank, a 9pm gala in the West End, a party after.

Get London Transfer provides fixed-price and as-directed chauffeur service for the festival — red-carpet-adjacent drop-offs handled with the discretion the night requires, Southbank-to-West-End repositioning between screenings, S-Class for talent and executives, and airport transfers for international delegations. Our drivers work both festival hubs nightly through October.

The festival's Southbank home: Royal Festival Hall transfers.

Drop-off & Pickup Knowledge

Getting dropped off at London Film Festival

On the Southbank the working drop is Belvedere Road behind BFI Southbank and the Royal Festival Hall; in the West End, gala nights bring rolling closures around Leicester Square, so drop points shift to the agreed boundary streets (Charing Cross Road, Whitcomb Street side) per that evening's arrangements. For galas with accreditation, we follow the event's vehicle instructions to the carpet line.

Red-carpet chauffeur positioning, plus the practical two-venues-a-night festival-goer. Links naturally to the Royal Festival Hall page (same buildings) — internal link both ways.

Why Choose Us

Why Get London Transfer for London Film Festival

25 years TfL licensed. Get London Transfer has held a Transport for London Private Hire Operator licence continuously since 2000. We are not a rideshare aggregator — our drivers are individually contracted, and the same driver handles a multi-leg booking. 2026 UK Transport Awards Winner (Best SME Transport Provider — SME News), with a 4.9-star average across 2,150+ verified reviews.

Fixed prices, agreed at booking. No meter. No surge. No event-night uplift. No late-night surcharge. No "tolls extra", no "parking extra", no "congestion charge extra". The price at 1am after the encore is the price you agreed at lunchtime — which is exactly when on-demand apps around London Film Festival are multiplying their fares.

Event-day route knowledge. Our drivers work London's event calendar daily: they know London Film Festival's traffic management, the workable drop-off points, and the pickup positions that clear the area fastest afterwards. That knowledge is the product.

Pre-booked returns. We agree your pickup point and time before the event, position the driver in advance, and adjust by live message if plans change. You walk out to a waiting car instead of joining the crowd staring at a surging app.

The right vehicle. Mercedes E-Class executive (up to 4), MPV 6-seater, 8-seat Mercedes Vito, chauffeured S-Class VIP, and 16-seat Sprinter coach (VAT zero-rated for 10+ seats). Child seats, water and phone charging included.

FAQ

London Film Festival transfers frequently asked questions

Can you do two screenings in one evening?
Yes — that's the classic festival booking: drop at BFI Southbank, reposition, collect and transfer to the West End gala, then home after. Book it as-directed for the evening and the driver stays with your schedule as timings slip.
Do you handle accredited red-carpet arrivals?
Yes — where your gala provides vehicle accreditation we follow the event's arrival instructions to the drop line; otherwise we use the agreed boundary streets by Leicester Square. S-Class and E-Class both available, drivers briefed for discretion.
How much is a taxi to London Film Festival?
Fixed-price transfers to London Film Festival (Southbank & West End) start at £50 depending on pickup point — see the airport fare table above for guide prices, from £70 from Heathrow. All prices are fixed at booking: fuel, tolls, congestion/ULEZ charges, waiting time and meet-and-greet included. No meter, no surge, no event-night uplift.
Can you pick us up afterwards for the return?
Yes — pre-booked returns are the most valuable part of the service at London Film Festival. We agree an exact pickup point and time before your event, position the driver in advance, and adjust by live message if you leave earlier or later. The fixed price doesn't change.
Do you have vehicles for groups?
Yes — Mercedes E-Class (up to 4 passengers), MPV 6-seater, 8-seat Mercedes Vito, chauffeured S-Class VIP, and 16-seat Mercedes Sprinter coach (VAT zero-rated for 10+ seat passenger transport). One fixed price per vehicle — for groups of 4+ this is consistently cheaper per person than multiple app cars.
Are airport pickups met inside the terminal?
Yes — every airport pickup includes meet-and-greet in the arrivals hall with a name board, flight tracking from departure, and 60 minutes' free waiting after landing. Delays are handled automatically by dispatch; you never need to call.
