在皇后乐队亮相1985年的Live Aid非洲慈善义演后,乐队以经典阵容主唱弗雷迪-莫西里,吉他手布莱恩-梅(Brain May),鼓手罗杰-泰勒(Roger Taylor)和贝斯手约翰-迪肯(John Deacon)重返温布利。1986年的7月12日,皇后乐队在伦敦举办连续两夜的演出,而《Queen Live At Wembley Stadium》则正式记录了乐队在第二晚的演出,乐队当晚现场演绎了早期的《Seven Seas of Rhye》和《Tie Your Mother Down》等多支经典名曲。
现场《Queen Live At Wembley Stadium》展现了皇后乐队音乐的多样性以及强大的现场表现力。乐队吉他手布莱恩-梅说:“温布利的演出是我们最后的巅峰,乐队的所有人都来到了最佳的状态,弗雷迪也已经找到了同现场观众交流的特有方式。回到伦敦去完成两场告罄演出对于我们是一次巨大的挑战。不过没有人意识到这(次巡演)会成为我们最后一次同台演出。”
