The future Spotify Camp Nou has begun to take fuller shape, with hopes to host FC Barcelona matches until the end of 2024 or early 2025, after it was agreed that the initial completion date, which coincided with the 125th anniversary of FC Barcelona, is no longer feasible.
The future Spotify Camp Nou has begun to take fuller shape, with hopes to host FC Barcelona matches until the end of 2024 or early 2025, after it was agreed that the initial completion date, which coincided with the 125th anniversary of FC Barcelona, is no longer feasible.
Despite these challenges, the last few weeks have seen significant progress, particularly in the placement of the posts and horizontal beams that will form the entire outer ring of the stadium. This structural framework is crucial for the overall stability and future development phases of the project.
Now, more posts and beams have to be placed around the perimeter of the stadium, a somewhat tedious but necessary process to solidify the entire project. This task is expected to continue over the next few months, ensuring that the foundational elements are robust and secure.
In addition to the outer framework, ongoing repair and conditioning work continues in the first and second stands. The entire structure of the old stadium had to be modified to align with the new project specifications.
This includes not only reinforcing existing elements but also redesigning the seating areas of the first and second stands to enhance spectator experience. The location for the new seats will also be concreted soon, providing a more modern and comfortable environment for fans.
Inside the stadium, the necessary partitions are being installed at a good pace, and progress on the flooring is going smoothly. These internal developments are essential for the functionality and aesthetics of the stadium, ensuring that all facilities meet contemporary standards.
In addition to the main construction work, there is notable progress in the development of the commercial areas. The construction of shops, cafes, and parking lots is advancing, aiming to provide a comprehensive and enjoyable matchday experience for visitors. These amenities are designed to cater to the diverse needs of fans, offering convenience and enhancing the overall atmosphere of the stadium.
As the project moves forward, the management team remains committed to overcoming obstacles and delivering a state-of-the-art stadium that reflects FC Barcelona’s prestigious history and future ambitions. Despite the delays and challenges, the vision of a revamped Spotify Camp Nou continues to drive the efforts of everyone involved.
