So, as of right now, Camp Nou is still under renovation till december, where it should be reopened at limited capacity. Does anyone know (locals perhaps) how does that affect visiting the stadium and its museum outside of a match? I’m going on vacation to Barcelona and i would really like to visit it as I’m a huge childhood Barca fan. Thanks for all the comments and replies in advance!

I’m looking for the footage where Messi hits the post against atletico Madrid. It was a chip from a near impossible angle. I believe it was from around 2011-2014. Does anyone know what I’m talking about?

Straight forward question, many stadiums including the Bernabeu are built on very limited land so they cant really expand much.

Barça on the other hand has a ton of space that they are now using as a new-gen Espai Barça. Having said that, the club could have easily expanded the Camp Nou to 120,000 or more seats. Yes it wouldnt fill up for most matches but the highest rows could be covered for smaller games with banners while offering full capacity seating for Champions Leagues and El Clasicos. Anyways 105,000 is obviously enormous, but as someone who has gone to many games I know that even that's not enough to meet demand in the big games.

Hi! I'm trying to make plans to bring my soccer-obsessed teenage son to your beautiful city over winter break to attend the Barcelona/Madrid game the weekend of Dec 21st... This will be our first European soccer match (so I guess it's our first "real" soccer match), and I have a couple of questions about ticketing and the match-day experience that I'm hoping you can help me with. I've Googled a bunch and obviously searched this subreddit but haven't really found good answers...

1. I initially tried to buy tickets from the official team site, but that particular match shows as having no tickets available, even though the matches before and after do have tickets for sale. Is that because that match is sold out, or because tickets just haven't been made available yet? I did register for the alert but obviously if it's already sold out I probably won't get any...

2. If it is indeed sold out, I found some decent tickets on StubHub, but (at least from an American perspective), they're VERY light on details. All you can do is pick a pretty large section of the stadium, and the tickets themselves don't have row or seat numbers. Is this normal, and is there any way I can get a better idea of where we'll actually be sitting? My son is a goalie and wants to be closer to one end so he can watch the pros...

3. Stubhub seems pretty sure the game will be on Sunday the 21st, but the team website says it might also be on Saturday. Is this true? Do games get moved around like that? We do have that here in the US for NFL games, so it makes sense, but when will they actually announce the official date? We were planning to leave Friday and arrive Saturday, but if the game is Saturday morning I'll probably want to change that...

4. Is there anything else you think a clueless first-timer should know? I've been to Barcelona myself a couple of times now, so I do know my way around pretty well and can get us up to the Olympic stadium with no issues, so I'm mostly just concerned with stuff specific to tickets and attending matches...

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide, and looking forward to seeing some of you at the stadium in a few months...

PS: Tried to change all the "games" to "matches" but may have missed a few. Sorry for being so American...

Discuss the predictions/hot takes you got right.

Can't find any recent news about it. Why haven't we seen that signed yet?

Now that everyone loves Rapinha, let me ask those who wanted to sell him or get rid of him. Why exactly did you want that? He was the last person to leave after Yamal. Only fire in his eyes was enough for me to keep him. We only have Gavi and him with any mentality of a warrior.
