If you’re interested in taking a Wembley tour, this post will provide all the information necessary to visit this attraction, including details about ticket prices and how to get there.


Overview

Wembley Stadium was originally built in 1923 and was known as the Empire Stadium. It was built for the British Empire Exhibition and was intended to be a temporary structure. 

However, due to its popularity, it was decided to make it a permanent stadium. The stadium underwent major renovations in 2002 and was reopened in 2007.

Wembley Stadium has hosted some of the biggest events in sports, music, and entertainment history. The stadium has hosted the FA Cup Final, the League Cup Final, the Community Shield, and the Play-off Finals. 

It has also hosted the UEFA Champions League Final, the UEFA Europa League Final, and the UEFA Nations League Finals.

Wembley Stadium offers a few different tours at the moment, allowing fans to get a closer look at some of the most historic and notable locations in the massive venue.

In addition to a standard Wembley Stadium tour that is regularly offered, there are also VIP tours you can take which will take you to areas that are usually off-limits.

Tours are available almost every day, and it’s relatively easy to get here either by tube, train, or bus. Best of all, there are several ways to save up to 50% off on tickets!

The Exclusive VIP Tour is much more limited in availability, so you might want to purchase tickets ahead of time in order to ensure you can enjoy this outing.

Unlike the basic tour, the VIP experience is closer to 2 hours in length.

VIP Matchday Tour

This is basically the same as their Exclusive VIP Tour with a few additional extras.

As the name implies, this type of tour is only offered on matchday, and it actually includes admission to the match.

In addition to a VIP gift pack, you’ll also receive a free matchday programme and the opportunity to visit pitchside as the teams are warming up!

Like the other VIP Wembley tour, this service will also last about 2 hours, and then you’ll get to stick around to see the match live.

That said, since they don’t have matches every day, availability for this tour is much more limited.

NOTE: Since the ticket price often varies for matches, the price of this tour also depends on when you make reservations. Given that tickets can be pretty expensive, you can expect this VIP experience to cost even more!
