Wembley and the Euro – their shared history

Wembley’s history is quite rich, and when it comes to the Euro, a new page in the stadium’s history book is about to be written. After having hosted 6 matches including a semi-final and the Euro 1996 final, Wembley will host 8 matches including its second final in its history on 11th July 2021.

The stadium was demolished and rebuilt in 2007, so this will be the first Euro in the new venue.

  • Euro 2020: Three group matches + two rounds of 16 + two semi-finals + the final

Historical Events at Wembley

  • After a final at Euro 1996, Wembley will host its second Euro final during Euro 2020.
  • It will be the first Euro football tournament to be played in England after its renovation in 2007, although it has hosted other major competitions.
  • It was the temporary home of Tottenham Spurs for two years due to work on their new stadium.

Profile

Wembley Stadium, located in the London borough of Brent, is often synonymous with great concerts, memorable rugby matches and, of course, football.

After its demolition in 2003, the reconstruction was entrusted to the architectural firm Foster + Partners and lasted four years. Once finished, Tottenham played there for two years (the time it took to build its own stadium), enough time to wipe the slate clean and turn the stadium into a new crown jewel.

The new Wembley Stadium can accommodate 90,000 people, making it the largest stadium in the competition and the second largest in Europe after the Camp Nou. Its circumference is also very important as it is more than one kilometre long!

Wembley Stadium, London

To support it all, 4000 steel piles were needed to make the foundations. The deepest one is 35 metres long!

Its arch is also a record-breaker, as it is the largest in the world at the moment. Its diameter is even greater than that of a train.

In terms of football, the size of the pitch is 105 metres long and 69 metres wide, enough to be approved as a category 4 stadium.

Wembley also features a 40,000 m2 sliding roof, 52 metres above the pitch. This will be very important as it is common for rain to hit the English capital. It will be interesting to see how it is used and whether teams will be able to choose to leave it open or to close it, depending on the weather.

London Weather: Live

On average, the temperature is 19° and the humidity is 72%. It rains, on average, for one third of the month (10 days).
