The redevelopment of the Spotify Camp Nou has entered a clearly visible phase. An exclusive walk through the interior of the stadium has produced a series of photographs showing the real state of the work in key areas such as the FC Barcelona first-team dressing rooms, the pre-box area, the future commercial spaces and the compression ring that will hold up the roof. The images reveal a project that already allows fans to picture how the venue will look once the renovation is complete.

  • The new first-team dressing rooms show a large-scale design already in an advanced stage.
  • The pre-box area and the double ring of VIP boxes reveal the hospitality concept for the future stadium.
  • VIP seats in the front rows of the second tier are already being installed.
  • The compression ring, a key element for supporting the roof, is being assembled.
  • The locations of the future official store and the Museu are now defined.

Inside the new FC Barcelona first-team dressing rooms

The home dressing room is always one of the most anticipated spaces in any major stadium renovation. At the Spotify Camp Nou, the area reserved for Barcelona's first team is undergoing a full transformation, and the images captured during the visit show a room of considerable size, designed to accommodate the players, the coaching staff and all the services associated with matchday. The current layout reveals the scale of the project, in line with the standards of Europe's leading clubs.

The pre-box area and the double ring of VIP boxes take shape

The stadium's premium zone is also progressing at a noticeable pace. The pre-box area, the reception space leading to the main box, is beginning to define its architectural lines, while the double ring of VIP boxes already shows a recognizable structure that will wrap around much of the stands. This configuration is designed to multiply the corporate and high-value hospitality options, one of the economic cornerstones of the renovation project.

New VIP seats installed in the front rows of the second tier

In the second tier, the front rows have started to receive the VIP seats that will form part of the stadium's new ticketing offer. These are seats differentiated from the rest, positioned in a privileged location for watching matches. Their installation indicates that work in the stands has moved beyond the structural phase and is now advancing toward the interior fit-out.

The compression ring: the key to the future roof

The installation of the compression ring is one of the most important technical milestones of the project. It is the structural element responsible for supporting the future roof of the Spotify Camp Nou, which will protect spectators from rain and wind without the need for intermediate supports that could block sightlines. The photographs show sections of this ring already in place, confirming that the full roofing plan is moving forward as scheduled.

Locations for the future store and the Museu are already defined

The renovation is not limited to the sporting and seating areas. The interior walkthrough also makes it possible to identify the spaces that will house the club's future official store and the FC Barcelona Museu. Both areas, fundamental to the stadium's daily activity and to the experience of members, fans and tourists, are now marked out within the new complex, with surfaces designed to absorb a high volume of visitors throughout the year.

A redevelopment that shapes FC Barcelona's future

The reconstruction of the Spotify Camp Nou is one of the most ambitious sports infrastructure projects in Europe. The plan includes a capacity of more than 90,000 spectators, a complete roof, new hospitality spaces and a full modernization of access and services. Every step forward, such as the one shown in these images, brings Barcelona closer to the definitive reopening of their stadium, scheduled for the 2026-2027 season.
