Wembley Stadium was Tottenham Hotspur's Home
A Day at Wembley: Discovering the Iconic Stadium!
Today, we’re at the legendary Wembley Stadium to share a fascinating story about this architectural marvel. Known as the official stadium of the Football Association (FA), Wembley is a crown jewel in the world of football. With a staggering capacity of 90,000, it’s not just the largest stadium in the UK but also the second-largest in Europe, following FC Barcelona’s iconic Camp Nou.
Wembley hosts some of the most prestigious matches in English football, including the FA Cup Final, the Championship Playoff Final, and the Community Shield. Despite its grandeur, Wembley isn’t home to any specific football club. However, between August 2017 and March 2019, Tottenham Hotspur made history by playing all their home games here.
This temporary move came after Spurs demolished their beloved White Hart Lane to make way for their state-of-the-art Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. As a London-based club, sharing any of the capital’s other major stadiums proved impractical, leaving Wembley as their only viable option.
Although their stint at Wembley wasn’t marked by much on-field success, Tottenham remains only the second football club in the world to call this iconic venue their temporary home.
