Why you shouldn't leave food to the last minute

• Wembley Park gets busy fast around a sold-out arena show

• Groups especially struggle to get a table without booking

• Eating beforehand means you're not rushing food to make doors

• One less thing to think about on a logistics-heavy night

Where to eat before Simple Plan Wembley

Blue Check Wembley, 12–13 Empire Way, Wembley, sits roughly two minutes' walk from Wembley Stadium and close to OVO Arena Wembley. It works for a proper sit-down meal before the show, drinks with friends beforehand, or food afterwards once you're out.

Book your table at Blue Check Wembley before you head to the show; nearby restaurants fill up quickly on event nights, and walking in on spec is a gamble you don't need on a night you've already planned around.

What to order before a concert

Before a gig, most people want something satisfying but not heavy, and easy to share. Worth thinking about:

• A main that'll keep you going through a few hours on your feet

• Something to share across the table if you're in a group

• A drink or two before heading to the arena

• Food that won't have you watching the clock

Eating before vs. after the show

Before: Gives you breathing room, no rush to get to the arena, find your spot, and settle in before Stand Atlantic and Charlotte Sands open.

After: Some fans prefer to eat once the show's over, to unwind and talk through the setlist. Just know that post-show availability depends on opening hours and how busy things get once a full arena empties onto Wembley Park's streets at once; book ahead here too if you can.
