FC Barcelona seeks prolonged use of Montjuïc facilities until May 20 XX.
FC Barcelona Sets Sights on Olympic Stadium
Barcelona's soccer powerhouse is seeking to extend their stay at the Olympic Stadium Lluís Companys until May 20, 2025. Despite the club's intentions to return to their home, the Spotify Camp Nou, the ongoing renovations have left them temporarily at the stadium Montjuïc.
In a statement, FC Barcelona shared that they are aware of the reservation BSM had slated for a Rolling Stones concert in May, but they're uncertain if it will take place. This uncertainty opens the possibility for Barcelona to host their final La Liga match at the Olympic Stadium if BSM agrees to their extended request.
One of the most anticipated matches, if not the most, is the La Liga EA Sports Classic against Real Madrid, scheduled for Sunday, May 11. The venue and time have yet to be confirmed, but it could potentially take place at Montjuïc.
Struggles with their current venue have been a recurring theme for Barcelona this season. Due to ongoing renovations at the Spotify Camp Nou, they've been hosting games at the Olympic Stadium. The club has been making efforts to resume matches at Camp Nou as soon as possible, with the return expected in the 2024/25 season. However, due to construction delays, the stadium's reopening is now slated for September 2025, with an initial capacity of around 60,000 spectators. The full completion of the Camp Nou expansion is expected in 2026 [1][2].
In the meantime, Barcelona has been hosting significant matches at the Olympic Stadium, like their recent Champions League game against Inter Milan [4]. Keep an eye on official announcements from FC Barcelona and local sports news outlets for updates regarding specific matches or facility use.
