Bruno Mars opens a six-night residency at Wembley Stadium in London on July 18, 2026, the largest concert stand of his career and one of the biggest live-music commitments the 90,000-capacity venue has hosted this summer. The shows are part of his Romantic Tour, his first full headlining stadium tour and first major tour in nearly a decade.
London’s dates were originally planned as just two shows before being expanded to six — July 18, 19, 22, 24, 25 and 28 — after tickets released on January 15, 2026 sold out almost immediately amid what Live Nation called the biggest single-day ticket sales in its North American tour history, with Ticketmaster reporting roughly 2.1 million tickets moved across the tour in a single day.

The Story
The Romantic Tour launched April 10 in Las Vegas and runs through October 17 in Vancouver, with Wembley’s six-night run the longest multi-night stand of the entire trek, ahead of four-night stops in Toronto, Amsterdam, East Rutherford and Inglewood. Support comes from Anderson .Paak, performing as DJ Pee .Wee, alongside Victoria Monét, with Raye and Leon Thomas joining at select shows.
The tour supports Mars’ fourth solo album, The Romantic, released February 27, 2026. Overwhelming pre-sale demand pushed promoters to add 31 additional dates across North America, Europe and the UK, expanding Wembley from two nights to six.
What It Means for Visitors
Most Wembley dates sold out on general release, and resale prices on secondary markets have climbed well above face value. Wembley Stadium operates as cashless, and organizers note restrictions for young children: no children age 5 and under, and all under-14s must be accompanied by an adult in pitch standing areas.
The residency adds to what Wembley Stadium has billed as its busiest concert summer on record, with roughly 34 shows and an estimated three million fans expected to pass through the venue between June and September 2026.
