Barcelona Set to Play Historic Game at Upgraded Camp Nou on Saturday

The club confirmed they will play at the still-under-construction Camp Nou on Saturday. Athletic Bilbao will visit the Basque side in the Spanish league 30 months following their departure so building work could begin.

“We envisioned this comeback. The moment has arrived. Home again at Spotify Camp Nou.”

Attendance will be limited but 45,401 spectators will be allowed to watch under the licence granted. After final construction, the stadium’s capacity will reach over 104,000 attendees, increasing from the former 99,000. Officials confirmed completed upgrades featured an updated entryway for the team and new dressing rooms.

Preparatory Events

Barcelona held a public practice at the Camp Nou in early November. The club said approval is being pursued by UEFA to play their next home Champions League game versus the German side on 9 December at Camp Nou. Previous fixtures took place at the Olympic Stadium.
