manifest at OVO Arena Wembley

Start with the Sunday. On 18 October the Jacksonville Jaguars play at the stadium at 14:30, the NFL fanpark runs at Boxpark from 10:00 to 23:00, and the whole zone is under the permit scheme from the morning. That is the date on your street this week. manifest at the Arena on the Friday is the quieter half of the same seven days. The Arena has not published a start time for this one, so the card above says so rather than guessing. What is fixed is the Friday: the 16th, four days into High School Musical's run at Troubadour, which opened on the 12th and goes to 3 January. The theatre sells a season rather than dated performances, so whether it has a show that evening is not something anyone can read off its listing.

Boxpark has nothing on the 16th. Two venues, then, and one of them may or may not be open. For a Friday in Wembley Park that counts as light. Around 12,500 people at the Arena, with XO supporting. A Friday crowd stays out longer than a midweek one, so the walk back to the station is spread across a wider window and the pubs near the ground feel it more than the roads do.

None of which is the point if you live inside the zone. Nothing here triggers the scheme. The card will show restriction rows on the 18th, and those are the hours to plan around, not these.

Boxpark picks up the following night with its AllDay Indie Indoor Festival, 17:00 to 23:00 on the Saturday, and then the NFL takes the Sunday. The Friday is the gap in the middle of that.
