Camp Nou and FC Barcelona
Seeing FC Barcelona is a highlight of any sports fan's trip, but 2026 is a moving target: the Spotify Camp Nou has been rebuilt in phases, with the club playing some games elsewhere during the works. Here is how to see a match or take the stadium tour, and how to check exactly what is open before you book anything.
Our advice
Check the current status first, then book official. Because the stadium and tour have been reopening in stages, confirm on the club's own site what is running on your dates before buying anything. For matches, buy from FC Barcelona's official channel to avoid resale markups; for the tour, book a timed slot ahead, as it sells out around big fixtures.
The 2026 reopening
The Camp Nou has undergone a major rebuild, and through 2026 it has been returning to use in phases as capacity and facilities come back online. During the works FC Barcelona played some fixtures at other venues in the city. What this means for you: do not assume the stadium, the museum or the tour are all open on a given date. The picture changes month to month, so treat the club's official site as the source of truth for your specific dates, and book refundable accommodation if your trip hinges on a match.
Before you book
- Confirm what is open
- Stadium, museum and tour may reopen on different dates; check official listings for your dates.
- Match tickets
- Buy from the official FC Barcelona channel; release dates depend on the fixture and competition.
- The tour
- The stadium tour and museum are timed; book ahead and expect high demand near match days.
- Getting there
- Metro L3 (Les Corts / Palau Reial) and L5 (Collblanc) serve the stadium area.
- Match-day prices
- Hotels and transfers cost more around big fixtures; book early.
Stadium tour vs a match
A match is the real experience if the fixtures and your dates line up and the stadium is hosting; nothing matches the atmosphere. A stadium tour and museum visit is the reliable fallback any time, taking you pitch-side and through the trophy and history exhibits. With younger children, the tour is usually the better call; see our family guide.
Stadium tour & experience tickets
For the tour and museum, a timed ticket avoids the queue. For an actual match, always start with FC Barcelona's official site, and confirm the venue first given the phased reopening.

How we checked this
The phased-reopening situation is fast-moving, so this guide deliberately points you to the club's official listings rather than fixing details that change month to month. We re-check and date this; tell us if the status here is out of step.
