Bruce Springsteen Wembley Stadium: timings and everything you need to know

The Boss is in London this week – and, as always, you won’t want to miss him. Just over a year after Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band played the capital at BST Hyde Park, they’re all back for the group’s 2024 World Tour. 

This week Springsteen and co will play not one but two huge shows at Wembley Stadium. The gigs are his only scheduled stops in the capital this year, and follow three other 2024 UK gigs in Belfast, Cardiff and Sunderland. 

Heading to Wembley this week to see Bruce and the gang? Here’s everything you need to know about the show, from support acts to the seating plan.

Dates

Bruce and the E Street Band will play Wembley on Thursday July 25 and Saturday July 27.

Door timings

Doors will open at the same time for both gigs: 5pm BST.
