What to do for 4 hours near Wembley Stadium while DS is at a concert

I’m taking DS15 and his mate to see MCR at Wembley next weekend, and, to save the hassle of trying to pile into the tube at the end, I’m driving and have booked a private car space ten mins walk away.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do for a few hours while I wait (not going myself sadly, just the chauffeur). It’s been aeons since I’ve been to Wembley… what’s the Boxpark like? TIA

You don't have to stay in Wembley!

This, I would probably take the train into London, 10 mins gets you to Marylebone. I can’t think of anything that would keep me amused for 4 whole hours on an evening at Wembley.

What time/day is the concert? Get on the tube to baker Street and walk around Marylebone. Bit further into Kings Cross and Granary Square. Depends on day though doesn't it as Sunday evening things will be closed!

What time of day is it?

There is excellent transport from Wembley into C London but if you want to be closer you could go for a meal nearby (the area surrounding the stadium has lots of choice of the chains or there are many Indian restaurants nearby)

There is a Cineworld within 10 min walk of the stadium so if it’s the evening I’d go to see a film

Thanks all, it’s evening concert, and as I work in central London I don’t think I want to head back in for an evening, tho I appreciate that would give me more options. Cinema is a good call!

It’s also finished.

I’d just go to the cinema and / or have a meal. It’s not the most interesting place to hang around.
