Barcelona sparing no efforts to ensure Camp Nou capacity increase at the earliest possible | Barca Universal

"Work at Spotify Camp Nou continues to move forward at pace, with Barcelona determined not to lose momentum even during the Christmas period. In fact, according to a report from SPORT, construction has not slowed down, which largely explains the club's urgency to increase stadium capacity as soon as possible and boost matchday revenue. Barcelona's objective to bring fans back in larger numbers at the earliest opportunity and the next major step could arrive very soon."

"A key factor working in Barça's favour is the fixture list. Over the coming weeks, the team will play a sequence of away matches, which allows construction work to continue without disruption. At the same time, cooperation with the City Council is proving crucial. The granting of 1C License is expected to allow the opening of the north stand, which would unlock a substantial increase in capacity."

"Barcelona will also discover their opponent for the Copa del Rey round of 16, scheduled for January 13, 14 or 15 away from home against a lower-division side. Domestic action resumes with a league trip to Real Sociedad on January 18, followed by a European away fixture against Slavia Praha on January 21. All of this sets the stage for a crucial return to Spotify Camp Nou on January 25, when Barcelona could already be welcoming around 62,000 spectators against Oviedo."

Construction at Spotify Camp Nou is progressing rapidly through the Christmas period, with no slowdown reported. Barcelona seeks to increase stadium capacity by around 17,000 seats to boost matchday revenue and welcome more fans. The granting of the 1C License would allow opening of the north stand and unlock a substantial capacity increase. A run of away fixtures in January permits uninterrupted construction work. Barcelona's January calendar includes matches on January 3, 7, 13–15 (Copa del Rey), 18 and 21, leading to a planned home return on January 25. The club anticipates hosting about 62,000 spectators against Oviedo if deadlines are met.
