""It's become a reality, we're back home, and on top of that, with a fantastic football spectacle. I'm very happy, like all Barça fans. "We've celebrated a truly special day, a day that celebrates the joy of being a Barça fan, of experiencing Barça, and we saw this with the ceremonial kickoff with the club's oldest members.""
""You think about the people who are no longer with us, obviously my father, who instilled in me a love for Barcelona and Catalan identity. "When I look ahead and see the place I used to go with him, I get emotional. The events that have been organised have been simple, but very dignified. The stadium isn't finished yet; it was a lap of honour. "I really liked the ceremonial kickoff by member number 6, accompanied by a member who had marched in the 1957 parade.""
FC Barcelona returned to the renovated Spotify Camp Nou with a 4-0 victory over Athletic Club and a temporary capacity of 45,000. The homecoming featured a ceremonial kickoff involving the club's oldest members and celebrations described as simple, dignified, and emotional. Personal memories and Catalan identity were invoked in reflections tied to the stadium. Construction continues while fans enjoyed a lap of honour. Plans aim to reopen the North Stand by the end of the year and to complete the third tier during 2026 to increase overall capacity.
