About Wembley Stadium
Wembley Stadium is England's 90,000-seat national stadium and the second-largest in Europe — home to England internationals, the FA Cup final, NFL London games, and some of the world's biggest concerts. The bowl is a three-tier design: the lower tier (blocks 101–144), the middle Club Wembley tier (blocks 201–252, all premium hospitality) and the upper tier (blocks 501–552). Blocks are numbered clockwise from the halfway line. The best general views are the lower-tier long sides at the halfway line; Club Wembley offers the best comfort and sightlines; the upper tier is the best value with panoramic views.
Rebuilt in 2007 on the site of the original 1923 stadium, Wembley seats 90,000 and is crowned by its signature 133-metre steel arch, visible across London. The bowl has a partially retractable roof that covers every seat but leaves the pitch open, and it hosts the FA Cup, England internationals, NFL London games, boxing and stadium concerts.
Seating map
This is the map used for ticket sales at Wembley Stadium. Exact configuration varies by event.
How the venue is set up
Football (England, FA Cup, EFL finals)
Full bowl. Lower-tier long-side blocks at the halfway line (around 101–105 and 130s) give the most balanced view; the ends (behind the goals) are louder but more end-on. Away fans are allocated one end for finals and internationals.
NFL (London Series)
A regular NFL London host. Sideline seats (long sides) run parallel to the line of scrimmage — the premium NFL angle — while the ends sit behind the end zones. Club Wembley and lower-tier sidelines are best.
Concerts
End-stage setup (stage typically at one end). The pitch becomes a standing floor (front pitch standing is closest) plus seated blocks; the lower tier facing the stage and Club Wembley give the best seated views. Blocks behind and beside the stage are restricted-view or withheld.
Rugby league & boxing
Hosts the Rugby League Challenge Cup final and major boxing. Rugby uses the full pitch (long-side seats best); boxing is centre-ring, where lower-tier and pitch-side seats are closest.
Seating levels explained
Lower tier (Level 1)Blocks 101–144
The lowest, closest tier wrapping the pitch.
Pros: Closest to the action and the loudest atmosphere; long-side halfway blocks give a balanced, immersive view.
Cons: Low sightline makes the far side harder to read; behind-goal and corner blocks are more end-on; front rows can have pitch-side hoardings in view.
Club Wembley (middle tier)Blocks 201–252 (premium)
The entire middle tier, reserved for Club Wembley premium and hospitality members.
Pros: The best seats in the stadium — padded seats, wider concourses, dedicated lounges and catering, and a clean, central, unobstructed view across the whole pitch.
Cons: Premium / membership only; not sold as standard general admission.
Upper tier (Level 5)Blocks 501–552
The highest tier — the most economical general seating.
Pros: Cheapest seats with a complete, panoramic view of the whole pitch; central upper blocks read the game best.
Cons: Furthest from the action and high up; corner and top-row 500s are the most remote seats.

Seats to avoid & obstructed views
Blocks behind and beside a concert stage: Restricted or no view of the stage; usually sold as restricted-view or withheld.
Top rows and corners of the upper tier (500s): The highest and most remote seats from the action.
Behind-goal lower-tier blocks for football: End-on angle makes the far end of the pitch harder to follow than long-side seats.
Front-row lower-tier seats: Pitch-side hoardings, photographers and officials can intermittently block the lowest view.
Accessibility & companion seating
Wembley is one of the most accessible stadiums in the UK, with wheelchair and amenity/easy-access seating distributed across all three tiers and all sides, giving a real choice of height, price and view. Companion seats are provided next to wheelchair positions, with accessible toilets, Changing Places facilities, an audio-descriptive commentary service and assistance for guests with sensory and hidden disabilities. Accessible tickets are booked through the relevant event organiser or Wembley’s access service and sell out fast for finals and major concerts.
Where: Wheelchair and amenity positions are located on the lower (Level 1), middle (Club Wembley) and upper (Level 5) tiers around the full bowl.
Food & drink at Wembley Stadium
Wembley's concourses mix draught bars pouring beer alongside handcrafted pies with bottle bars for bottled beers and soft drinks, plus kiosks serving Bavarian-style hot dogs, fish and chips, burgers and pizzas, with vegan versions of the staples. On Level 2 the offer steps up with TapHouse Social, Camden Town Brewery bars and two M&S Food stores.
Wembley is an entirely cashless stadium and outside food and drink cannot be brought in, though small amounts are permitted for medical or intolerance reasons; gluten-free meals are available via the information booths.
