A transfer to the football match, sorted

A chauffeured transfer to a football match takes you from your door, hotel or office straight to the stadium drop-off zone, and back again after the final whistle. No parking, no packed match-day trains and no searching for a taxi in a crowd of 50,000. SilverDrive runs these transfers in the Netherlands and to grounds across Belgium and Germany, at a fixed price agreed at booking.

Why book a chauffeur for match day?

Match days create predictable problems. Roads close around the stadium, parking fills hours in advance, trains run crowded both ways, and after the game everyone wants a taxi at the same moment. A pre-booked chauffeur removes all of that:

  • Drop-off at the stewarded zone, planned around match-day closures.
  • A fixed pickup point after the game, agreed before you go in.
  • No designated driver: everyone in the group can enjoy the day.
  • Time to talk tactics on the way, not to fight traffic.
  • Corporate hospitality that starts at the hotel, not at the turnstile.

Stadiums we drive to

In the Netherlands

StadiumClubFrom central Amsterdam
Johan Cruijff ArenA, Amsterdam ZuidoostAjaxAbout 20 minutes
De Kuip, RotterdamFeyenoordAbout 1 hour
Philips Stadion, EindhovenPSVAbout 1.5 hours
AFAS Stadion, AlkmaarAZAbout 40 minutes
Stadion Galgenwaard, UtrechtFC UtrechtAbout 40 minutes

Times are typical for normal traffic. On match days we leave extra margin, since the roads around the ground fill up well before kick-off.

Across the border

European nights and away days are a natural fit for a chauffeur, because the train connections are rarely direct and rarely late enough for a night game:

  • Germany: Dortmund, Gelsenkirchen, Mönchengladbach, Cologne and Düsseldorf are all within roughly two to three hours of Amsterdam. See our Cologne and Dusseldorf pages.
  • Belgium: Brussels, Bruges and Antwerp are within two to three hours.

The same chauffeur drives both directions, so after a late kick-off you sleep in the car instead of waiting for the first train.

Vehicles for every group size

  • Mercedes-Benz E-Class or S-Class: up to three fans, or business guests in a hospitality package.
  • Mercedes-Benz V-Class: up to seven, the classic choice for a group of friends.
  • Mercedes Sprinter: up to 16, ideal for a supporters’ club or company outing.
  • Setra S 515 HDH coach: up to 56 for larger groups. See group transport.

How a football transfer works

  1. Book with your match, date, pickup address and group size on the booking page.
  2. Receive a fixed price covering the outbound trip, waiting time and return.
  3. On match day, the chauffeur collects you with enough margin to reach the ground before road closures and gate queues.
  4. During the match, the chauffeur parks nearby. We share the pickup point and a contact number.
  5. After the final whistle, walk to the agreed point and head home while the crowd is still queuing for the trams.

Combining a match with a weekend

Many visitors fly into Schiphol for a weekend that centres on a big game. We can handle the whole visit: airport transfer on arrival, a city day, the stadium run and the drive back to the airport. For other sport and music events, see our event transportation service.

Corporate hospitality on match day

Companies often host clients in a stadium skybox or business seats. A chauffeur turns that into a complete experience: pickup at the office or hotel, drop-off at the business entrance, and a calm ride home afterwards while guests discuss the game. For larger groups, a Sprinter keeps everyone together, and an S-Class can collect the guest of honour separately.

Concerts and other big events at the Johan Cruijff ArenA, the Ziggo Dome or De Kuip work exactly the same way, with the same drop-off planning and a fixed pickup point afterwards.

Book your match-day transfer

Big fixtures sell out and so do match-day vehicles. Book your football transfer as soon as you have tickets, or ask for a group quote for a club or company outing.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the chauffeur drop us at the stadium?

As close as traffic measures allow. On match days police and stadium stewards close roads around grounds such as the Johan Cruijff ArenA and De Kuip. Your chauffeur knows the drop-off zones and agrees a fixed pickup point with you before you walk in.

Will the chauffeur wait during the match?

Yes, if you book a return. The chauffeur parks nearby and is ready at the agreed point after the final whistle, so you avoid the crush at the station and the hunt for a taxi.

Can you drive us to a match in Germany or Belgium?

Yes. Away days and European nights in Dortmund, Gelsenkirchen, Cologne, Brussels or Bruges are popular. The same chauffeur drives both ways, and longer trips are planned around driving-time rules.

How many people can travel together?

A sedan takes up to three, a V-Class up to seven, a Sprinter up to 16 and the Setra coach up to 56. Supporter clubs and corporate hospitality groups often book the Sprinter or coach.

Can we drink on the way to the match?

Supporters may bring soft drinks and snacks. Alcohol in the vehicle depends on the booking and local rules; tell us in advance and we will advise. Stadium entry rules on intoxication still apply.
