It will include a uniform height along the entire external perimeter, increasing the stadium’s capacity. Once completed, the stadium will be able to hold more than 105,000 spectators, a significant increase from 99,345. The project also includes the creation of a VIP ring between the second and third tiers of the stands. It will also ensure that all spectator seats in the stadium are roofed. Furthermore, a panoramic screen will also be created under the canopy, running along its inner edge. Externally, the venue will be given an open feel with wide terraces.

The Cost of the Revamp Project Design

The Camp Nou stadium completion costs took into consideration the investment costs that were rising exponentially. The internal referendum on the project cost was held at the end of 2021, the budget was placed at no more than €1.5 billion. Of these, €900 million is to go towards upgrading the Spotify Camp Nou stadium. The stadium redevelopment project is going as scheduled with the funds being used towards its upgrade. The stadium redevelopment is to be completed between 2022 and 2025. The stadium upgrade contract was awarded to Nikken Sekkei as the project’s main contractor. The eventual design of the new stadium was prepared by architects from construction companies such as IDIOM, b720, and Nikken Sekkei.

The Progress of the Construction Project

Preparatory works on the new Spotify Camp Nou stadium started as early as July 2022. It is worth mentioning that a sponsorship agreement has also been in place since July 2022. Under this, the name of the venue has been changed to Spotify Camp Nou. Since September 1, 2022, the demolition of a section of the stand behind the south gate has been underway. The scope of work included the removal of elements in the rear of this stand, along with the dismantling of the central section of the top floor of the auditorium. This was to be followed by the construction of new stairs and escape routes to restore the use of the seats not included in the remodeling on the first and second floors.
