Under the arch at Wembley

Wembley Stadium, crowned by its 134-metre arch, is the home of English football — the national team, FA Cup finals and the biggest occasions the game offers, with around 90,000 beneath the roof. It is the spiritual capital of the sport in England.

Wembley sits in northwest London, a Tube ride from the centre, with Wembley Way leading the crowds up to the stadium on big days. The whole of London is your fan zone.

Below are the London stays, restaurants and bars fans use around Wembley.

Fan tip: Wembley is on the Tube and overground — base in central London and ride out; the walk up Wembley Way before kickoff is the classic approach.
