Wembley Stadium

When you think of Wembley Stadium, the iconic 90,000-seat arena in London that hosts England’s biggest football matches and major live events. Also known as the new Wembley, it replaced the original 1923 stadium and reopened in 2007 as the spiritual home of English football. This isn’t just a venue—it’s where legends are made. The England national team plays nearly all its home games here, from World Cup qualifiers to Euro finals. Fans from across the globe pack the stands for matches that decide continental dominance, and the roar when the Three Lions score still gives chills.

But Wembley isn’t just about football. It’s one of the world’s top concert venues, a massive stage that draws global superstars like Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, and Adele. The acoustics, the sightlines, the sheer scale—it’s why artists call it the ultimate gig. Over 100,000 people have packed in for single shows, turning the stadium into a pulsing, singing, dancing hive. It’s also hosted the FA Cup final every year since 2007, the Rugby League Challenge Cup, and even American football’s NFL International Series.

Behind the scenes, Wembley is a machine. The retractable roof, the 133-meter arch that holds the world’s largest suspended roof, the 2,000+ CCTV cameras, the 10,000+ staff on match day—it all works in perfect sync. And it’s not just for elite events. Local clubs, youth tournaments, and community fundraisers use the surrounding facilities. It’s a living piece of British culture, not just a monument.

What you’ll find in this collection are stories tied to this landmark: the matches that broke hearts or made history, the concerts that turned nights into memories, and the moments when Wembley became more than a stadium—it became a stage for the world. From England’s last-minute winners to pop icons lighting up the arch, these are the moments that define Wembley.
