At which stadium did Elton John perform during the 1985 Live Aid concert?

Elton John performed at Wembley Stadium during the 1985 Live Aid concert.

Live Aid took place on 13 July 1985 as a pair of large charity concerts organized to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia. The London concert was held at Wembley Stadium, while the parallel United States concert took place at John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia.

John performed several songs during the Wembley section, including “I'm Still Standing,” “Bennie and the Jets,” and “Rocket Man.” His set also included appearances by Kiki Dee and George Michael. The event was broadcast internationally and became one of the most prominent live music broadcasts of the 1980s.

A frequent confusion is Wembley Arena, a separate indoor venue near Wembley Stadium. Elton John's Live Aid performance took place at the stadium, not the arena. The London venue was packed with tens of thousands of spectators for the historic event.
