Wembley Stadium is about to have one of its biggest concert runs in years. The Weeknd brings his After Hours Til Dawn Stadium Tour to London for five nights, 14, 15, 16, 18 and 19 August 2026. That is five sold-out shows at 90,000 capacity. If you have a ticket for any of them, you already know this is going to be a night to remember. What you need now is somewhere to eat and drink before you walk in.
Blue Check Wembley is two minutes from the stadium on Empire Way, right on the route you will walk to the gates.
The show you are going to
The Weeknd's After Hours Til Dawn tour has already broken records across North America, Europe, South America, and Australia, with over 5 million people and $1 billion in box office revenue throughout the run. The Wembley dates are part of the final leg. The setlist pulls from three albums: After Hours (2020), Dawn FM (2022), and Hurry Up Tomorrow (2025). Alongside the newer material, expect Blinding Lights, Starboy, Can't Feel My Face, Save Your Tears, and The Hills. It is a full two-hour show, and the production is on a different scale to most concerts.
Playboi Carti opens. Doors are at 5 pm on all five nights. The earlier you arrive in Wembley Park, the better the evening is going to go.
Why eat before you go in
Stadium food at Wembley is expensive, and the queues are long. More importantly, eating inside means you miss the atmosphere building outside. On five consecutive nights of The Weeknd, the energy around Wembley Park from 4 pm onwards will be electric, and that is worth being part of.
Book a table at Blue Check Wembley before the show. You eat well, you take your time, and you walk to the gates relaxed and ready.
What Blue Check Wembley offers
We are a family-run restaurant and bar at 12–13 Empire Way, Wembley Park, HA9. We have been here for over 15 years and hold a 5-star Food Hygiene rating. The menu covers a full range of mains and sharing plates. We are fully halal and fully licensed.
We have hosted over 675 private events, and our capacity goes up to 180. For groups wanting to sit together, booking in advance is the right move. August concert nights fill up quickly, and walk-ins get harder to manage the closer you get to show time.
Coming with a group?
A lot of people are travelling specifically to London for these five nights. If you are coming as a group for a birthday, friends' trip, or work night out, get in touch, and we will set aside a dedicated area for you. No hunting for seats together on a packed Tuesday evening in Wembley Park.
