Barcelona’s stadium, which is unrecognizable almost six months after the modernization began

On May 28, “Barcelona” played the last match at “Camp Nou” before the start of modernization.

The team coached by Xavi plays this season at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium in Montjuic, which hosted the 1992 Olympics (60,000 seats).

The work will continue until the end of the 2025/26 season, but Barcelona will return to play at the Camp Nou in the 2024/25 season (only 50% of the arena’s capacity will be used).

Inaugurated in 1957, the Camp Nou is the largest football stadium in Europe, with a capacity of almost 100,000 seats. After reconstruction, the capacity of the arena will reach 105,000 seats.

The cost of the project (the facilities around the stadium will also be improved) is 1.45 billion euros (the new arena costs 900 million euros).

In a video published on social networks, FC “Barcelona” revealed the state of work inside the stadium.
