Wembley Stadium







Wembley Stadium - The Venue

The home of English football since 1923, the new Wembley Stadium opened in Spring 2007 and quickly reestablished itself as the country’s leading venue for sports and entertainment events. Operated by Wembley National Stadium Limited, a fully owned subsidiary of The Football Association, the new stadium offers up to 90,000 fans the opportunity to watch world-class events with unrivalled views of the action in state-of-the-art facilities.

Wembley Stadium plays host to The FA’s flagship events including all senior England home internationals, The FA Cup Final and Semi Finals, The Community Shield and The FA Carlsberg Vase and Trophy Finals.

In addition, the venue is home to Rugby League’s Carnegie Challenge Cup Final traditionally held in August each year and The Football League’s showcase events including The Carling Cup Final, The Coca Cola Football League Play Off Finals and The Johnstone’s Paint Trophy.

As well as these annual football and rugby league events, the stadium’s flexible design makes it possible to host a diverse range of additional sports, music and entertainment events each year. Since opening the stadium has already hosted American football, motor-racing and a number of very high profile music concerts including Concert for Diana and Live Earth.

It is possible to guarantee a seat at all of Wembley Stadium events by purchasing a Club Wembley 10 year seat licence or corporate box. Click here to find out more.

Looking forward, Wembley Stadium will be the venue for the men’s and women’s football finals for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and will be at the heart of The FA’s 2018 World Cup Bid.

In addition to hosting major events, the stadium operates a very popular official Stadium Tour as well as first class conferencing and banqueting facilities which succeed in attracting thousands of visitors to the stadium all year-round.

Wembley Stadium also has its own store. Open daily, the Wembley Store provides everything from unique Wembley Stadium souvenirs, to England merchandise and a selection of merchandise from UK and European based football clubs.

The rebuilding of Wembley Stadium has had far-reaching benefits for the local area of Brent and London. The building of the stadium has led to increased employment opportunities, vastly improved transport links and has acted as the catalyst for massive regeneration efforts which will ultimately transform the local area into a world-class national and international leisure destination, delivering thousands of jobs and homes with massively improved local facilities.

The most visibly striking feature of the new stadium is the 133 metre tall arch that sits above the northern half of the stadium and is visible across London. The iconic arch is lit for major events and special occasions and has become a symbol for the stadium and a new landmark for the Capital.
