FC Barcelona Set to Play Historic Match at Upgraded Camp Nou on Saturday

The club confirmed they will play at the partially upgraded Camp Nou over the weekend. Athletic Bilbao will visit Athletic Bilbao in La Liga 30 months since relocating to allow renovations to start.

“We’ve dreamed about the return. Now, it’s here. We’re back home. Back at Spotify Camp Nou.”

Attendance will be limited but 45,401 spectators are permitted inside as per the current authorization. After final construction, the Camp Nou is due to hold almost 105,000 spectators, a rise from the old capacity. Barça announced finished work included a new players’ tunnel plus modern locker rooms.

Recent Activities

Barcelona held a fan-accessible workout at the Camp Nou earlier this month. The club said approval is being pursued from European football’s governing body to host the next European match facing Eintracht next month at the stadium. Previous fixtures took place at Estadio Olímpic Lluís Companys.
