Which stadium hosted the London leg of the 1985 Live Aid concert?

Wembley Stadium hosted the London leg of the 1985 Live Aid concert.

Live Aid took place on July 13, 1985, as a simultaneous benefit concert in London and Philadelphia. The London event was staged at Wembley Stadium, while the American event was held at John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia.

The concert was organized to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia. Bob Geldof and Midge Ure were central to its creation, following the success of the 1984 charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”

Wembley’s performance schedule included artists such as Queen, David Bowie, Elton John, U2, and The Who. The event was broadcast internationally and became one of the most important large-scale televised music events of the 1980s. It is sometimes confused with Live 8, another globally televised charity concert held in 2005.
