Historic day for the *culés*: return to the new Camp Nou 900 days later

The Football Club Barcelona experienced a memorable day this Friday. After 900 days of construction, the Blaugrana have officially returned to the Spotify Camp Nou, celebrating the stadium's reopening with an open training session in front of 22,280 spectators. A symbolic session that marked the beginning of a new era for the club and its fans.

The event has been much more than a simple sports training session. It has meant the reunion of Barcelonismo with its temple, a moment charged with emotion, nostalgia, and pride after two and a half years of waiting.

The Barça anthem sounds again at the Camp Nou

From early in the morning, fans began to fill the surroundings of the stadium. Under a radiant sun, culés of all ages walked for the first time through the new access that connects the street with the stands of the renovated coliseum, discovering the improvements of the Espai Barça. Opinions were mostly positive, with praise for the modernization of the venue and some specific criticisms about details to be adjusted.

The atmosphere was one of genuine celebration. When the Barça anthem played over the loudspeakers of the new stadium, emotion took hold of both the players and the crowd. The moment symbolized the return of the Blaugrana identity to their home, after having played for two seasons at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.

Notable presences in the Camp Nou box

In the stands, **Deco**, the club's sporting director, wanted to highlight the period experienced at Montjuïc, calling it "a display of resistance and unity of the Barça fanbase." Alongside him, Joan Sentelles, head of the **Espai Barça** project, confirmed that the next objective is to obtain permit 1B which **would allow the match on November 22 against Athletic Club to be played at the Camp Nou**. "That day is marked in red on our calendar," he statedOn the pitch, Hansi Flick's men completed a dynamic session, with tactical drills, rondos, and final stretches. The German coach was satisfied with the crowd's response and the intensity of his footballers, who face the next league match with optimism

A Reopening with a Charitable Purpose

Tickets for this event had a symbolic price: five euros for members and ten for the general public. All proceeds will go to the Polseres Blaugranes program, a solidarity initiative promoted by the FC Barcelona Foundation that supports social and child inclusion projects.

The club thus wanted to turn this return into a day that was not only sporting but also charitable, reaffirming its commitment to the values that define Barça.

The countdown begins for the official return to Camp Nou

The reopening of the Spotify Camp Nou is not just an architectural event, but also an emotional one. For the Culé fans, returning to their stadium after almost three years represents the rebirth of an identity and the beginning of an era filled with hope. The stands look renewed, the interior areas modernized, and the fan experience has taken a leap into the future.

Fútbol Club Barcelona hopes that the match against Athletic Club marks the official return of the competition to the stadium, restoring the Camp Nou to its role as the epicenter of world football
