Wembley Stadium holds 90,000 spectators for standard all‑seater events such as football matches.

Key capacity facts

  • Official seating capacity: 90,000, making it the largest football stadium in the UK and among the largest in Europe.
  • The three tiers are designed entirely with seats (no standing), which is why it is described as an all‑seater bowl‑style stadium.

Variations for different events

  • For some concerts and special events, floor/standing configurations can slightly change the usable capacity, but the headline figure used by the venue and major competitions remains 90,000.
  • Record attendances since the rebuild have been just under the maximum, with crowds around 89,000–89,800 for major football and rugby events.

Quick context for fans

  • Wembley is the national stadium of England and regularly hosts England men’s internationals, FA Cup semi‑finals and finals, and major music events.
  • Its size and design mean that a full house of 90,000 creates a very intense atmosphere, often highlighted in match reports and fan discussions.
