There’s nothing quite like the buzz of a Coldplay gig at Wembley Stadium—the lights, the crowd, the music pulsing through your veins. But if you’ve ever been caught in one of those ‘nightmare’ queues trying to catch the Tube afterwards, you know the exit rush can feel like a cosmic test of patience.

Coldplay fans have shared the best time to leave Wembley Stadium following the gig amid ‘nightmare’ queues to get on the the tube.
Chris Martin and co’s London run is underway, with only six show dates left to go.
Tickets are still available for the huge gigs if you’re keen to be a part of the crowd on the following sites: Seat Unique, StubHub, Viagogo, and Ticombo.
But every music lover knows the worst part about a gig is the rush out the door and fans are sharing their top tips for the lucky few with tickets.
On Reddit, one fan shared, “I was there on Friday night and it was a nightmare getting out.
“Everyone seemed to be funnelled into Wembley Park Station, no matter which direction you were going, so we didn’t get into the station until after 11.50pm and reached our hotel after 1am.
“My advice would be to leave after IFLIFIL (feelslikeimfallinginlove), you’ll miss one song but still hear them on the way out.”

Another agreed, as they wrote: “Would second this – left right after IFLIFIL yesterday night and took us around 10 minutes to get to the station at a brisk walk pace, got home all the way across town to South East London by 11:30pm.”
A third said, “We left as IFLIFIL played and walked briskly past most of the walking crowd on the way to Wembley Park. Can’t tell you how long it took for those properly queuing. But it took us about 15 minutes to walk round from the blue zone exits.”
So, there you have it, it’s worth risking the final song to get tucked up into bed by midnight. From the set list to merchandise and where to buy last-minute tickets, catch up on everything else you need to know below.
