It’s not every day you get to watch a pop icon sell out Wembley Stadium—and then bring out not one, but two surprise legends across two nights.
But this weekend, Dua Lipa did exactly that.
With her Radical Optimism Tour lighting up London, the 29-year-old singer delivered a jaw-dropping performance in front of 70,000 thrilled fans.
And just when everyone thought they’d seen it all, she had a few unforgettable tricks up her sparkly sleeve.
Charli XCX Joins the Party
Saturday night reached fever pitch when Dua hit pause mid-show and dropped a major tease.
“So this next song, I thought I’d bring a friend out,” she told the roaring crowd.
“She is the biggest brat—give it up for Charli XCX!”
The arena erupted. Charli, 32, strutted onto the stage, and the two launched into a high-octane performance of 360, sending the energy off the charts.
Fans were dancing, shouting, and belting every word.
“Wembley, you’re unreal tonight!” Dua shouted, beaming with joy.
Jamiroquai Brings Funky Nostalgia on Night One
The surprises didn’t start and end with Charli.
The night before, Dua kept fans on their toes again by bringing out none other than Jamiroquai. Yes, the ’90s funk-pop legend.
“This is someone who inspired me when I first started,” she told the crowd. “A true trailblazer.”
The pair shared the stage for one of his iconic hits, creating a moment that was both nostalgic and electric.
It was a love letter to the music that shaped her—and her audience ate it up.
The Looks That Had Everyone Talking
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Dua Lipa show without killer fashion.
She dazzled in multiple outfits, including a futuristic silver sequin bodysuit and a dreamy sheer blue gown.
She wasn’t just performing—she was putting on a full-blown visual spectacle.
Cheering her on from the audience were her fiancé, actor Callum Turner, her mum Anesa, and her sister Rina.
“It feels special to be here tonight,” Dua shared warmly with the crowd.
A Decade in the Making
Dua had a deeply emotional moment as she reflected on how far she’s come.
“It’s been ten years since our very first London show,” she told fans.
“Back then, it was about 350 people. I dreamt of nights like this.”
During Friday’s show, she even broke down in tears while thanking the crowd. “Wembley, thank you.
This is something I’ve dreamed of my whole life,” she said, visibly moved.
Before launching into Hotter Than Hell, she added, “This song changed my life. Let’s take it back to the beginning.”
A Tour That Feels Like Home
Selling out Wembley—twice—is no small feat, especially with just three albums under her belt. But Dua’s star power shows no signs of fading.
A source close to the tour summed it up: “Headlining stadiums at this point in her career just proves how influential her music has become. She’s on cloud nine.”
She’s also determined to make her shows feel personal, even on the biggest stages.
“Adrenaline is such a rush,” she recently told Vogue.
“Even before I step out, I can already hear people screaming. That’s when I know—it’s go time.”
Hit After Hit After Hit
The setlist was packed with fan favorites, from Levitating and New Rules to Be The One and Dance The Night.
She even promised to walk the full stadium to get closer to her fans—just like she did at Glastonbury.
Her goal? “To make it feel intimate, even in a place this massive.”
By the time the final note played and the lights dimmed, there was no question: Dua Lipa had just owned Wembley.
