About Camp Nou

Camp Nou is the largest football stadium in Europe and the home ground of FC Barcelona, one of the most celebrated clubs in the history of the sport. Located in the Les Corts district of Barcelona, the stadium has a seating capacity of over 99,000 and has hosted some of the most iconic matches in football history since its inauguration in 1957.

A Football Cathedral in the Heart of Barcelona

Built to replace the club's previous ground at Les Corts, Camp Nou — which translates from Catalan as "New Field" — was designed by architects Francesc Mitjans and Josep Soteras. The stadium is not only a venue for football but also a symbol of Catalan identity and civic pride. Beyond match days, it draws visitors year-round as one of Barcelona's most visited attractions.

The Camp Nou Experience Museum

For those who cannot attend a live match, the Camp Nou Experience offers an immersive tour of the stadium, including access to the dressing rooms, the players' tunnel, the pitch-side area, and a comprehensive museum charting FC Barcelona's history. The museum houses trophies, historical photographs, and interactive exhibits covering the club's founding in 1899 to the present day.
