Valencia CF gave a close look at the Nou Mestalla on Wednesday, showing a project that remains on track for its scheduled opening in the summer of 2027. The club confirmed that the roof will be fully hoisted by late October and that seat installation is planned between April and May, in line with the timeline the club has been working with.

  • The Nou Mestalla roof will be completed by late October 2025.
  • Seat installation is scheduled between April and May.
  • Valencia will announce season ticket prices next week.
  • The cheapest season ticket will keep its current price, while the most expensive one will be cheaper than at Mestalla.
  • About 400 workers and 60 engineers and architects are currently on site.

Guided tour of the Nou Mestalla with Valencia executives

The club organized a media tour attended by managing director Javier Solís, Beatriz Plaza, the architect responsible for the Infrastructure and Major Projects department, and Franco Segarra, director of Data, Fan Experience and Ticketing. The goal was to see firsthand how the work is progressing after months of steady construction.

Solís was particularly pleased with the pace of the project and with the image the stadium is starting to project. "Veo que va a ser un campo a la altura de esta ciudad y de este club y seguro que va a ser una casa en la que todos los valencianistas se van a sentir muy orgullosos," he said during the visit.

Mobility and access to Valencia's new stadium

Mobility is one of the key issues the club wants to resolve before the opening. According to the managing director, the club has held a series of meetings to ensure fans can reach the stadium comfortably. It is a priority for the matchday experience and for the stadium's integration into its surroundings.

Nou Mestalla season ticket prices to be announced next week

There will be important news for fans next week. Solís confirmed that the club will release the season ticket price list for the Nou Mestalla and offered an early detail that will please supporters: the cheapest season ticket will cost the same as the current one at Mestalla, while the most expensive option will actually be cheaper than today's top price.

Valencia currently has around 40,000 season ticket holders at Mestalla. The club plans to make roughly 10,000 new places available for the move to the new stadium, with further details to be announced later, according to Franco Segarra.

Bowl-shaped design and stand layout at the Nou Mestalla

Beatriz Plaza explained that the stadium has a bowl-shaped design, custom made to guarantee good sightlines from every seat in the ground. During the tour it was clear that the middle tier, upper tier and top tier are already complete, while the lower tier and the first rows at pitch level are still under construction.

The premium tier is a separate level with just three rows of seats located between the middle and upper tiers, reserved exclusively for hospitality products. It is advancing alongside the construction of the private boxes, an area that will also house the club's offices.

Work pace at the new stadium construction site

Activity at the Nou Mestalla is relentless. Around four hundred workers are currently on site, joined by about sixty people between engineers and architects. That workforce is keeping the project on an ambitious schedule and on course to have the stadium ready for the summer of 2027, as planned.
