How to get to Wembley Stadium by train
Heading to the Stadium for a match soon? Based in north-west London, getting the train to Wembley is simple, with three convenient options for you to choose from.
We operate direct trains to London Euston from key stations including Birmingham New Street, Coventry, Milton Keynes, Rugby, Northampton, Bletchley, and Watford Junction.
From London Euston:
Board the London Overground Lioness line northbound and travel 8 stops to Wembley Central. Wembley Stadium is then a 17-minute walk.
Prefer the tube? Board at Euston Square, then take the London Underground Metropolitan line westbound for 4 stops to Wembley Park. Wembley Stadium is a 10-15 minute walk from there.
Alternatively, from Euston Square take the Metropolitan, Circle, or Hammersmith & City line one stop to Baker Street, then change onto the Jubilee line to Wembley Park - just a 600-metre walk to the stadium.
From Watford Junction or Harrow & Wealdstone:
If your service calls at Watford Junction or Harrow & Wealdstone, you can pick up the Overground there instead of continuing to Euston. Watford Junction to Wembley Central takes just 12 minutes, and Harrow & Wealdstone to Wembley Central takes only 9 minutes.
Check your specific service's calling points on our Journey Planner, or ask onboard staff, to see if this applies to your train.

More about Wembley Stadium
- Wembley Stadium is the centrepiece of English football, holding host to the national teams, as well as annual F.A Cup final, League Cup final and the Community Shield.
- Originally built in 1923, the old Wembley Stadium was demolished in 2003, and construction began for the new stadium. It officially opened on the 19th of May 2007, with the FA Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United (1-0).
- The iconic ‘Wembley Arch’ is easy to spot from miles away. At 133 metres tall and with a span of 315 metres, it is the longest single span roof structure in the world. The total cost of construction was estimated to be £757 million, with the sliding roof also making it the largest fully covered stadium in the world. When weather conditions aren’t favourable the roof shelters each of the 90,000 seats, and is also used when Wembley hosts other events like concerts and sports such as boxing and American football.
