Barça to Host First Match at Renovated Camp Nou this Saturday
The club confirmed their first game will take place at the renovated but unfinished Camp Nou this Saturday. The club will host the Bilbao team in La Liga two and a half years after they moved out to allow renovations to start.
“We envisioned this comeback. The moment has arrived. Home again at Spotify Camp Nou.”
Not all seats will be available though over 45,000 attendees can be present under the licence granted. After final construction, the stadium’s capacity will reach over 104,000 attendees, up from the previous 99,000. Officials confirmed completed upgrades featured an updated entryway for the team and new dressing rooms.
