The renovation and expansion of the Spotify Camp Nou Stadium, under a designbuild contract signed between FC Barcelona and Limak Construction on January 31, 2023, achieved significant progress throughout 2025.
Key construction phases, including demolition and foundation works, have been successfully completed. Significant progress has also been achieved on structural and construction activities across various areas of the stadium, while foundation and infrastructure works continue to support the overall transformation. Notably, the service ring beneath the first tier of stands and the Compression Ring have progressed significantly.
The construction site covers approximately 220,000 square meters, with the renovation area spanning around 75,000 square meters. As part of the project, the bottom two tiers of the three tiered grandstand have been preserved, renovated, and fully updated with new seating.
The stadium reopened in November 2025 with a capacity of 45,000 spectators. Work on the first and second tiers (Tier 1 and Tier 2), bringing the total capacity to 62,000, has been completed, with the necessary licensing expected in 2026.
FC Barcelona has submitted official applications to the relevant authorities to host the UEFA Champions League Final in 2029 and the FIFA World Cup Final in 2030.
The third tier of the existing stands will be demolished and rebuilt, with a new roof covering the entire upper section. The roof will span approximately 45,000 square meters and will feature photovoltaic panels. Around the stadium and beneath the renovated third stand, a covered parking area, VIP lounges, commercial spaces, and locker rooms will be constructed.
VIP lounges and dedicated food and beverage areas will be integrated across the two levels of the new third stand. Additionally, the FC Barcelona Museum, currently located outside the stadium, will be relocated to the newly designed upper tier. The project follows a sustainability-focused approach, including the installation of photovoltaic panels, modernization of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems, and upgrades to lighting and other critical infrastructure. Landscaping works are planned for approximately 60,000 square meters surrounding the stadium.
Upon completion, the stadium’s capacity will increase from 99,000 to 105,000 spectators, further reinforcing its iconic status. The project remains on schedule, with full completion targeted for 2027.
