On November 12, for the first time ever, the musician from Kazakhstan will perform a solo concert at OVO Arena Wembley – a world-class venue that has hosted many of the greatest artists of our time. Dimash Qudaibergen will present his show “Stranger” there.

Originally known as the Empire Pool, the OVO Arena Wembley is an indoor arena in London with a capacity of over 12,000 seats.

The Empire Pool was built by Arthur Elvin for the 1934 British Empire Games, where it hosted swimming competitions. The pool was last used during the 1948 Summer Olympics. Today, the modern arena is a premier venue for music concerts, comedy performances, family entertainment, and sporting events.

In 1976, the Empire Pool was granted Grade II listed status, recognizing its architectural significance, technological innovation, and craftsmanship. On February 1, 1978, it was officially renamed Wembley Arena.

The venue underwent major renovations in the early 21st century and reopened to the public on April 2, 2006, with a concert by Depeche Mode. Since early 2022, it has been known as the OVO Arena Wembley.

The arena is an iconic venue that has hosted globally significant events, including the 2012 Summer Olympics and the Wembley Professional Tennis Championships.

In the mid-1960s, it was home to the annual NME Poll Winners’ Concerts, where audiences of 10,000 witnessed performances by artists such as The Beatles, Cliff Richard & The Shadows, The Monkees, The Hollies, Dusty Springfield, Joe Brown & the Bruvvers, and Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich.

Over the years, the stage has welcomed legendary performers and bands including Led Zeppelin, Genesis, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi, INXS, Pink Floyd, The Eagles, Status Quo, Queen, ABBA, Tina Turner, Christina Aguilera, Beyoncé, Madonna, Ed Sheeran, Babymetal, Twenty One Pilots, Aespa, and many others.
