Very busy on event nights

Oxford Circus often goes exit-only or no-entry during Pride — do not rely on it. Green Park (Victoria/Jubilee) is the best arrival. Buses are heavily diverted all day — tube only. Night Tube runs Friday/Saturday so no last-train panic. Avoid Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus in both directions from midday.
