Wembley Stadium and the OVO Wembley Arena are some of the most notable concert venues in the UK. An incredible array of music heavyweights have performed at the Stadium, from Taylor Swift and Beyoncé to Bruce Springsteen, Queen and Oasis. Not only are both venues popular for their vibrant atmosphere and legendary status, they’re also close to a range of Wembley Park restaurants, shopping outlets and transport links. Here are some of the acts you can enjoy in 2026.
The Prodigy – 24 – 25 April 2026
The Prodigy will be blasting through their headline set at the OVO Wembley Arena in April, playing tracks from their seven UK Number One albums. Fans can expect, in Liam Howlett’s words, “that full experience of non-stop noise and beats”. Joining The Prodigy is DJ and producer Carl Cox, who will be returning to his signature three-deck vinyl setup.
My Chemical Romance – 8 – 11 July 2026
American rock band My Chemical Romance will be celebrating their third album, The Black Parade (2006) at Wembley Stadium in July. The theatrical style set sees the band play the album in full as their Black Parade alter egos before performing a second set featuring songs from the rest of their discography.
Luke Combs – 31 July – 2 August 2026
American country singer Luke Combs brings his My Kinda Saturday Night Tour to Wembley Stadium this summer. Known for his electric performances, Combs will be delighting fans with new music as well as old favourites. The London shows will be supported by Thomas Rhett.

Hot on the heels of Luke Combs’ performances come five nights of soulful, atmospheric music from The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye). His record breaking After Hours Til Dawn Stadium Tour has been extended for 2026 and will cover his entire catalogue, including hits like “Blinding Lights” and “Starboy”, and showcasing new tracks like “Hurry Up Tomorrow”. After this tour, Tesfaye is rumoured to be retiring his ‘The Weeknd’ stage persona, making these Wembley Stadium dates unmissable for fans.
Bon Jovi – 4 – 9 September 2026
Bon Jovi are returning to Wembley Stadium for three nights for their Forever Tour in September. Celebrating the band’s 16th studio album, Forever (2024), it marks their first full tour since frontman Jon Bon Jovi underwent vocal cord surgery in 2022.
