The stadium that kept growing

Camp Nou (Catalan for 'New Field'), officially Spotify Camp Nou for sponsorship reasons, is a stadium in Barcelona and the home of FC Barcelona since 1957. It is currently undergoing its fourth major renovation, increasing its seating capacity to a staggering capacity of 105,000 - placing it among the world's largest stadiums. The stadium opened with just 6,000 seats in 1957, soon expanded to 60,000 and eventually 90,000 in the 1980s. After its latest expansion, it will retain its position as the largest stadium in Spain and Europe, while moving up to the fifth-largest association football stadium and the fourth-largest overall stadium in the world.

Camp Nou has a rich history, serving as the venue for two European Cup/Champions League finals in 1989 and 1999, two European Cup Winners' Cup finals, four Inter-Cities Fairs Cup final games, five UEFA Super Cup games, four Copa del Rey finals, two Copa de la Liga finals, twenty-one Supercopa de España finals. It also hosted five matches in the 1982 FIFA World Cup (including the opening game) and half of the four matches at the 1964 European Nations' Cup.

The stadium had no official name when it opened in 1957 and was only named 'Estadi del Futbol Club Barcelona' on 8 November 1973. In July 2021, the club sold the naming rights to Spotify in a deal worth $310 million, making the stadium officially the Spotify Camp Nou.
