I'm proud of this news story run by Jonathan Prynn in today’s Standard. Everyone working at any Wembley Park venue should be too! From June to August, Transport for London reported that exits at Wembley Park tube station were a whopping 18% higher than in 2019, already a record-breaking year with events like the reunited Spice Girls, Pink and BTS. Wembley Park tube station ranked in the top 5% of the busiest stations across TfL's 434 stations, outpacing key Zone 1 hubs like Westminster, Camden Town, Charing Cross and Liverpool Street. This was achieved despite 10 fewer events at the Stadium and Arena, showing that growth isn’t just about major events. Our neighbourhood's expanded cultural and leisure offering has been crucial—sell-out shows like Starlight Express, Punchdrunk Enrichment’s Enitan’s Game, and attractions like Bubble Planet and Boxpark Wembley have all played a part. Even London Designer Outlet had its best trading summer since opening in 2013! Not to mention all the events directly curated by our team and the growing number of Londoners that today call WP home. Here’s to more success in 2025—if the sellouts for Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and Oasis are any indication, not to mention the arrival of Royal Philharmonic Orchestra...it’s going to be a busy year.. Thanks, Justine Simons OBE, for the generous quote!
Great stuff. Going from strength to strength. 2025 will be huge!
