Everything will come roses for Harry Styles.

The British musician and former member of One Direction has set a Guinness World Record for the longest run of concerts at London’s historic Wembley Stadium.

He was visibly emotional on stage Saturday night after selling out tickets for 12 dates of his Together, Together tour, which began on June 12. Styles, 32, broke the previous record for longest residency at Wembley, which was held by Coldplay for 10 nights last year.

He was originally only supposed to play six shows at Wembley, but happily doubled the number of shows when demand for tickets skyrocketed.

Styles was presented with his certificate by Guinness World Records adjudicator Will Munford on stage. “Harry Styles’ record-breaking 12-date run is a testament to the scale, ambition and cultural impact of his live shows, as well as the incredible connection he has with his fans,” Munford said. He continued: “Wembley Stadium is one of the most iconic live music venues in the world, so achieving the longest residency by a musician there during a single tour is an exceptional achievement.”

Each crew member on the tour was also given their own certificate by the pop star and his team.

At the closing concert on Saturday, about 80,000 of his fans gathered to listen to singles such as “Aperture” and “Dance No More” from his latest album. Kiss all the time. Disco, sometimesPlus beloved classics like “Adore You,” “Watermelon Sugar,” and “Music for a Sushi Restaurant.”

At the end of the evening, Styles reportedly paused to reflect on his time with One Direction. “I wouldn’t be on this stage if four of my friends weren’t a big part of this journey,” he said. “I want to thank Niall, Louis, Zayn and my dear friend Liam for these nights and everything I have learned in this time, the friendship, everything. […] None of this would be possible, I wouldn’t be here without you. Thank you very much.”

He performed at Wembley for three nights in a row alongside Horan, Tomlinson, Malik and Payne on the “Where We Are” tour in 2014. They formed while competing for Factor X It went on an indefinite hiatus in 2016. In 2024, Payne died after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, at the age of just 31.

Styles’ Together, Together Tour will take place in Sao Paulo, Brazil on July 17, before beginning his 30-show residency at Madison Square Garden on August 26.
