Hearts Match Day Taxi | Tynecastle Stadium Transfers – Kay’s Cabs Edinburgh

Heading to Tynecastle Park for a Hearts home game? Match days in Gorgie are brilliant — but transport can turn messy fast if you don’t plan ahead.

 

Kay’s Cabs provides pre-booked private-hire taxi transfers for Hearts match days, designed around real-world road restrictions, crowd movement, and kick-off times. We don’t guess. We plan.

 

Whether you’re travelling from the city centre, Leith, Murrayfield, Portobello, Musselburgh, or straight from Edinburgh Airport or a hotel, we’ll get you to Tynecastle Park efficiently and without the usual last-minute stress.

 

Our Hearts match day service covers:

• Pre-booked drop-offs near Tynecastle Park (as close as restrictions allow)

• Planned return pick-ups after full time

• Group travel with 6 and 8 seat vehicles

• Hotel, Airbnb, and airport transfers

• Multi-stop collections for friends travelling from different areas

 

Trying to rely on availability after the final whistle is a gamble — and usually a losing one. Pre-booking gives you a guaranteed plan, a driver who knows the area, and a realistic pick-up point that actually works on match day.

Getting To Tynecastle Park on Match Day

Tynecastle Park is located in Gorgie, just west of Edinburgh city centre. On Hearts match days, traffic builds well before kick-off and road access can change depending on the fixture, kick-off time, and police or council restrictions.

 

Our approach is simple and proven:

1) We aim for the closest practical drop-off point available on the day.

2) We allow extra time for congestion and temporary road closures.

3) We communicate clearly so you know where and when you’ll be dropped.

 

For evening matches and weekend fixtures, we strongly recommend arriving early. It avoids congestion, keeps the group relaxed, and means you’re not sprinting for the turnstiles.

 

If you’re unfamiliar with the area, we’ll advise the best drop-off option rather than blindly aiming for roads that may be closed.

Post-Match Pick-Ups After Full Time

Leaving Tynecastle after the match is where planning really matters.

 

Large crowds, temporary closures, and traffic restrictions make immediate stadium pick-ups impractical. Instead, we agree a sensible nearby collection point in advance — one that allows your driver to reach you without delay.

 

This means:

• Less waiting around

• No standing in traffic queues

• No confusion about where your car is

 

If the match runs late, goes to added time, or you stop for a post-match pint, just keep us updated. We plan pick-ups around realistic match-day conditions, not best-case scenarios.
