Wembley Stadium
Wembley Stadium was built on the same site to replace an ancient, identical-name building in the borough of Brent in north-western London, England, At its completion in 2007, the modern Wembley became the largest stadium in the UK with a capacity of 90,000 seats. It runs by a Football Association affiliate which is used for football, soccer, sporting, music, events and activities. In 1923, the first Wembley Stadium was designed to host the British Empire Exhibition from 1924 to 1925. This was the largest venue of the Olympics in London in 1948 and the stadium remained in service until 2000. The new and the most modern version of the stadium started to be constructed in 2002. The architects included the English group Foster + Partners and HOK Sports Venue (now known as Populous) experts from the American stadium. In March 2007, the new glorious stadium opened. Wembley Stadium is the art of massive engineering. It’s almost circular with 3,280 feet (1 km) circumference. A massive arch that is the main support of the ceiling is the most striking architectural element which can be seen even from the London Eye. The arch is 133 metres long and 22° from the perpendicular. The elevation of the arch is massive 133 feet. The movable roof of the stadium is not completely shut so that all seats can be covered.
