Barcelona inform RFEF of move to Estadio de Montjuïc for next season

Barcelona have formally informed the Royal Spanish Soccer Federation (RFEF) that they will play their home games next season away from the Nou Camp.

Barca's home stadium will be redeveloped as part of the Espai Barça project, which kicks off this year.

All of the club's facilities in the Les Corts neighbourhood of the city will be renovated, including Estadi Johan Cruyff, where Barcelona Atlètic and Barcelona Femení usually play their home games, and Ciutat Deportiva Joan Gamper, their training ground and academy base.

Barca, instead, will make the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Montjuïc their new home for the next season. The stadium is known as Estadi Olímpic de Montjuïc or simply Estadio de Montjuïc.

Renovation work at the Nou Camp is expected to begin in June 2023 and be completed by June 2026.

However, Barca hope to return home by November 2024, following the example set by Real Madrid, who are back playing at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu amidst ongoing improvements to the ground.
