The OVO Arena Wembley, long known as Wembley Arena, is one of London's most storied indoor venues, a 12,500-capacity hall beside the great stadium in north-west London. Built for the 1934 Empire Games and reborn as a concert arena, it has hosted decades of legendary music, comedy and entertainment.
Why visit
It is the right size for a great gig: big enough for major touring artists, intimate enough to feel the atmosphere. Alongside the neighbouring Wembley Stadium, it makes the Wembley Park area a genuine entertainment destination.
What to see and do
The arena hosts a packed calendar of concerts, comedy, family shows and awards ceremonies. The surrounding Wembley Park has been transformed with restaurants, the London Designer Outlet and event-day buzz.
Visiting tips
Wembley Park (Jubilee and Metropolitan lines) and Wembley Stadium station serve the area. Buy from official sellers to avoid resale traps. Check our getting around London guide to plan the trip out.
