Camp Nou

Barcelona, Barcelona, Catalonia 105,000 capacity

Camp Nou, officially known as Spotify Camp Nou, is the iconic home of FC Barcelona, located in the Les Corts neighbourhood of Barcelona, Spain. Opened on 24 September 1957, the stadium's name translates from Catalan as "New Field" — a nod to its origins as a replacement for the club's previous, smaller ground, Camp de Les Corts. With a capacity of nearly 100,000, it stands as the largest stadium in Spain and Europe, and one of the most recognisable sporting venues in the world.

Throughout its history, Camp Nou has been the stage for some of football's most memorable moments. It has hosted two UEFA Champions League finals (1989 and 1999), five matches of the 1982 FIFA World Cup, and the football final at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. Countless legends of the game — from Johan Cruyff and Diego Maradona to Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi — have graced its famous turf, cementing its status as a true cathedral of football.

Camp Nou is currently undergoing a major renovation project, designed to modernise the stadium while increasing its seating capacity to approximately 105,000. Due for full completion in 2026, the redevelopment will see Camp Nou not only retain its position as Europe's largest stadium by seating, but also become one of the finest sporting arenas on the planet — a fitting home for one of football's greatest clubs.
