Wembley Arena

About Wembley Arena

Wembley Arena - the UK's flagship live music venue first opened in 1934 as the Empire Pool and Sports Arena hosting the 1948 Olympics and numerous sporting and musical events.

73 years and a £35 million refurbishment later, the venue is synonymous with live music, welcoming scores of sell out shows and one off UK tour dates from major recording artists each year.

Wembley Arena has played host to some of the greatest music acts of all time, but is also well known as a sports and entertainment venue. Playing host to ice skating shows such as Disney on Ice, Holiday on Ice and Dancing on Ice, family events such as CBeebies and Thomas the Tank Engine and even becoming a luxury equestrian centre for the pampered horses of the Spanish Riding School. Audley Harrison and Amir Khan have both boxed at the venue recently and Masters Snooker retains its historic links with Wembley following it's move from the Conference Centre.

The Arena continues to play host to the greatest global recording artists, most popular sporting personalities and most enchanting children's shows and is looking forward to celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2009!
