National Express Renews Partnership with Wembley Stadium

Sports fans and concert-goers heading to Wembley Stadium connected by EE will benefit from direct coach services from over 50 locations across the country as National Express renews its partnership as the Official Coach Supplier to Wembley Stadium. As one of the most iconic stadiums in the world, and home of the England national football teams, Wembley Stadium regularly attracts more than three million visitors a year to some of the biggest events in sport, music and entertainment. Over the next three years, the renewed partnership offers fans a stress-free, straightforward alternative to parking hassles, traffic queues and last-train worries by providing dedicated coach services from all over the UK - including the Midlands, South Coast, North and West of England - direct to all major events at Wembley Stadium.

All 'Wembley Express' services arrive straight into the official coach park just minutes from the stadium entrance and will not depart until after an event has finished, including extra-time, penalties and encores. National Express' dedicated services will take fans to the stadium's 2026 events, including the Carabao Cup Final, FA Cup Final and a series of other landmark sporting fixtures in addition to headline performances from Bon Jovi, Bruno Mars, Luke Combs, My Chemical Romance and The Weeknd, with additional world-class acts still to be announced. John Boughton, Commercial Director for National Express, said:

"As the UK's leading coach operator with the largest scheduled coach network, we have an excellent track record of providing reliable, comfortable and convenient coach travel direct to festivals and events across the country and this renewed partnership puts fans first.  "Wembley Stadium hosts some of the biggest events in the country and fans should be able to enjoy every last minute of the match or gig, instead of stressing about traffic and the long drive back, or even missing the last train home. "Since joining forces with Wembley in 2007 we've taken hundreds of thousands of excited football fans and gig-goers directly to the stadium door and got them home safely, so we're really excited to provide even more fans with stress-free and sustainable travel options for those momentous occasions."

Mark Lynch, Stadium Director for Wembley Stadium, said: "National Express has long been a trusted and valued partner, playing a vital role in supporting sustainable and accessible travel for the millions of fans who visit Wembley each year. "This renewal reflects our shared commitment to delivering a world-class experience for visitors, while promoting greener transport options to and from the UK's national stadium.

We look forward to continuing our successful collaboration and building on the strong foundations of our partnership in the years ahead."
