Excitement is building in Wembley Park — now officially one of The Sunday Times’ ’ Best Places to Live 2025 — as the neighbourhood prepares to welcome Lana Del Rey for her two sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium on 3rd and 4th July. But before the global icon takes to the UK’s biggest stage, Wembley Park has unveiled a brand-new mural in tribute to the American singer-songwriter whose music has inspired a generation.
Painted on the side wall of the Spanish Steps and visible to every fan walking up to Wembley Stadium, the mural — titled Lust for Life, after Lana Del Rey’s 2017 album — features a life-like portrait of the artist seated in a turquoise 1950s pickup truck. A reference to the old-school Americana and classic car motifs that define her visual world, the 20 square metre spray-painted artwork was created by British street artist HUMOR in collaboration with street art collective MurWalls. It marks the newly named Lana Lane, complete with its own street sign.
Following the success of last summer’s Swiftie Steps — which featured two viral large-scale artworks by Frank Styles and HUMOR, both still on view — Wembley Park has renewed its collaboration with HUMOR and MurWalls. The new piece becomes the latest addition to the Wembley Park Art Trail, a free open-air gallery showcasing large-scale works by leading local and international artists across the Northwest London neighbourhood.
Marc Silver, CEO & Founder of MurWalls, commented: “We’re proud to return to Wembley Park, creating another mural in a landmark location — this time to celebrate the one and only Lana Del Rey. The artwork took three days to complete using only spray paint, with a focus on capturing the intricate details of Lana’s face and expression — something we hope fans will really connect with.”
HUMOR added: “There’s always pressure when creating portraits, but we’re thrilled with the result and can’t wait for Lana and her fans to see it.”
