Wembley Stadium

The UK’s largest stadium and the home of English football hosts the Euro 2028 semi-finals and the Final – the biggest nights of the tournament.

Wembley is the largest stadium in the UK and the second-largest in Europe, with 90,000 seats covered by a partially retractable roof – making it the largest fully-covered stadium in the world. The 133-metre arch that replaced the original Twin Towers has become one of London’s most recognisable skyline features, visible from miles across the city.

The current stadium opened in 2007, built on the same site as the 1923 original that hosted everything from the first FA Cup final to the 1966 World Cup final and Live Aid. For Euro 2028, Wembley reprises its role from Euro 2020/2021, when it hosted eight matches including both semi-finals and the Final – the atmosphere during the semi-final win over Denmark is still talked about as one of the greatest nights in the stadium’s history.

Wembley operates a strict public transport first policy. There is no general public parking, and the surrounding area enforces event-day restrictions. The walk up Olympic Way from Wembley Park station – known as “Wembley Way” – is one of sport’s great pre-match approaches.
