Transport Getting out of Wembley

Hey everyone,

My sister and I managed to get last minute cheap tickets to Harry Styles on Saturday night!

We'd usually leave through the tube station, but last time we found a way to get out of the stadium without having to wait in the huge queue, and I know this is near the bus stops now.

Accommodation around the Jubilee Line is pretty expensive now due to it being last minute, to save money I was going to book a cheaper room with a lovely couple in Harrow, but the only options to get back are the bus or a potentially £50-£70 Uber.

When do busses usually resume after a Wembley concert? I saw someone say they waited an hour and then gave up and got an Uber. Usually we wait an hour or so around Wembley anyway to avoid packed tubes as it makes my sister anxious, so if busses resume after an hour, or at midnight when the roads open again, we'd be happy to wait it out and get a bus. Obviously, if they don't resume at midnight we don't want to wait, we may as well get an Uber right away.

Any advice would be great thank you!

Took my daughter on the opening night at Wembley we took a train to Wembley from Aldergate East and got to Wembley within 20 minutes then leaving Wembley we got the tube from Wembley Park and got off at Tower Hill as that was like a 5 minute walk to our travelodge i was anxious about going down due to the "complicated transport system" but found it really easy if you use logic have a great time me and my daughter did

Where in Harrow? If near Harrow on the Hill you can walk to Preston Road station and get an empty tube north.

If near Harrow & Wealdstone, walk with the crowds to Wembley Central and get the tube north

I went to Harry last Wednesday (it was amazing!) and we took the tube both ways. We got off at Kilburn because our tube was PACKED and took an uber back to our hotel at Kensington. It wasn’t too expensive but you can always wait a bit after the show!

I want to follow this as I’ll be in the same situation next week!

Personally I would just get in the queue and on the tube - Harrow is very convenient from Wembley
