FC Barcelona Ready for Inaugural Fixture at Partially Completed Camp Nou over the weekend

The club confirmed their first game will take place at the renovated but unfinished Camp Nou this Saturday. The club will host the Basque side in domestic competition over two years after they moved out so building work could begin.

“We envisioned this comeback. The moment has arrived. Home again at Spotify Camp Nou.”

Not all seats will be available though over 45,000 attendees can be present under the licence granted. Once fully finished, the stadium’s capacity will reach almost 105,000 spectators, a rise from the old capacity. Officials confirmed recent additions comprise a new players’ tunnel plus modern locker rooms.

Recent Activities

Barça organized an open training session inside the stadium earlier this month. The club said approval is being pursued from Uefa for their upcoming Champions League fixture against Eintracht Frankfurt next month at Camp Nou. They have been hosting matches at Estadio Olímpic Lluís Companys.
