In addition to Wembley seating options, there are also several standing options available on the venue’s pitch area. These include a general admission area and two Gold Circle options (Gold Circle North and Gold Circle South). The Gold Circle areas offer the closest locations to the main stage, though the cross-shaped thrust stage extends out into the general admission standing area, providing plenty of opportunities to be up close to the action.

The Wembley Stadium capacity for concerts is from 75,000 to 90,000 people seated, plus up to 25,000 people standing on the pitch. This varies depending on the stage layout.

This provides plenty of room for The Weeknd to deliver an electric experience, making full use of the extended stage to deliver an unforgettable concert atmosphere.
