How to Visit Camp Nou: Barcelona Stadium Visit Info 2024

Wanna know how to visit Camp Nou? Camp Nou Stadium tours can take this already historic stadium to a new level.

Home to legendary FC Barcelona, aside from taking the field yourself (you actually can!) the Nou Camp tour is the best way to experience world class football.

In fact, this Barcelona stadium tour is the second biggest tourist attraction in Catalonia behind the epic Sagrada Familia.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to visit Nou Camp in one handy guide.

Can You Visit Camp Nou?

ATTENTION (01/29/24): On May 29th 2023 Camp Nou started an aggressive renovation project. During the renovation it won’t be possible to book traditional Camp Nou tours. There is only one, which I’ll get to below.

Yes, you can visit Camp Nou, the iconic home stadium of FC Barcelona.

There are several ways to visit Barcelona football stadium:

• Camp Nou Immersive Tour : This is the only way to visit Camp Nou in 2024 . It includes access to the museum, an audio guide, some looks into the construction, and the Spotify Camp Nou Live immersive room.
• Match Days : Attending a live football match at Camp Nou is an incredible experience, but in 2024 you won’t be able to! They’re currently playing at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys until November 2024.
• Guided Tours : Opt for a guided tour if you want a more in-depth and informative visit. These will return in November 2024!
• VIP Experience : For a premium visit, consider VIP packages that offer exclusive access, premium seating, and hospitality services.

How to Visit Camp Nou: Visiting Barcelona Football Stadium

Again, from June 7th 2023 the only tickets you can get to visit Camp Nou are for the Immersive Tour .

This includes the museum visit with an English audio guide + access to the audiovisual space Spotify Camp Nou Live.

You’ll find many online ticket resellers, but we recommend relying on our collaborator Tiqets, which help us to keep this blog (which we’ve dedicated 1000’s of hours to) free.

Here’s a link to book the only current Camp Nou tour left:

Every Camp Nou booking helps us get closer to doing this blog for a living, so thank you 🙏

Visit Nou Camp: The Museum

It’s here in this modern and interactive space that you appreciate just how good this club is.

You’ll start off listening to the team anthem with a translation in just about any language needed.

It’s in the museum where you can flip through touch screens with tons of info on the club’s greatest players. You’ll also get a great snapshot into the team’s history watching a video presentation of some of the club’s biggest moments on a massive screen.

⚠️  Warning ⚠️ : Barcelona’s top two attractions must now be booked in advance .

You can book fast track tickets to both individually or get them as part of a discount pass:

• ⛪ Buy now:  Sagrada Familia Fast Track Admission (skip the lines)
• 🏞️ Buy now:  Park Guell Fast Track Admission  (skip the lines)
• 🎟️  Buy now: Best of Barcelona Bundle (Sagrada + Park Guell + 10% discount code for all else)

You will not be able to book these tickets on site – lock in your tickets ASAP or you could miss out.

You can visit Barcelona football stadium and take a selfie with the 22 League trophies and 4 Champions League trophies .

There’s just a ton of memorabilia and equipment spanning the club’s 100+ years of history.

Top it all off with a visit to the largest official FC Barcelona team shop.

Camp Nou Visit Prices

Adding the camp nou museum audio guide.

The audio guide to visit Nou Camp, available in English , is not included in the standard ticket and  must be added during the booking .

It costs €6.00 and I recommend it only to those who are truly interested in curiosities about Barça.

You can request earphones or bring your own headphones .

The duration of the audio guide is about 1 hour and is concentrated in the museum part, so if you are accompanied by someone who has little patience, perhaps it is not for you.

During this visit of Barcelona Football Stadium it’ll go into deep detail about:

• Paulino Alcantara’s shoes (the first Messi of 1910)
• The history of the first FC Barcelona stadium
• What happened during the Franco dictatorship
• Anecdotes about the goalscorer Kubala in the 1950s
• The construction of Camp Nou
• Tidbits about Johan Cruijff, Maradona, Ronaldinho, and Messi

This is our favorite part of the Camp Nou visit! Here you can try to beat the world’s best keeper – which is actually a robot.

Three shots cost €6 . 00 and you can pay it straight to the guy at the start of the queue.

There’s really only one way to score here, and that’s burying it Beckham-style into the top corner 😉

In fact, there’s a video online of Messi and Neymar missing – so good luck!

Oscar naturally buried his first shot, then decided to retire.

Final score: Barcelona Hacks 1 – FC Barcelona 0.

Camp Nou Visiting Hours

FC Barça stadium tour opening hours and accessibility vary depending on scheduled matches (more info below).

Once you’ve entered there is no time limit on your Camp Nou visit, as long as it’s within the opening hours.

Last entry is 90 minutes before closing time.

Entrances times are staggered every 30 minutes (9:30, 10:00, 10:30 etc.).

The stadium portion of the Camp Nou tour is closed to visitors the day of La Liga matches.

For Champion’s League matches the stadium is closed both the day before and day of the match.

In both cases only the museum and the stadium panorama (until 6 pm) remain open.

Visit Barcelona Football Stadium Hacks

• Get there as early as possible to avoid the crowds (just after lunch is the busiest).
• Leave 90-180 minutes for the tour depending on your football love.
• If you want to tour Nou Camp don’t wear green if you want a picture with the pitch!
• Bring comfortable shoes (not flip flops or heels) cuz you’ll be walking a lot.
• If there’s a chance of rain dress accordingly (the stadium has no roof!).
• Get the audio guide for the full experience.
• The massive club shop has everything but watch the prices.
• Don’t eat there – go to the best restaurants near Camp Nou .
• If you have restricted luggage for the flight there’s an FCB shop at Duty Free.

Camp Nou Match Tickets + Seating Chart

A ton of you have been asking how to buy tickets for FC Barcelona matches and I must say that first of all the city’s season ticket holders have been holding on for generations and especially for bigger matches you may be out of luck.

That said, if you’re going to find any at honest prices they’re going to be through tourist ticket giant Tiqets . You’ll find a list of matches for sale and ticket prices by clicking the button below:

The three sections available are GOL 1, 2, and 3 (behind the goal) and LATERAL 1, 2, and 3 (at midfield). The fantastic sight-lines are perfect for seeing Messi and company in action.

Here’s a map of the seats available:

How to Use your Match Tickets

If you’ve bought your Barcelona match tickets using the link above make sure you arrive at Camp Nou about 30-45 minutes in advance – or get there really early for some romantic time between you and the field before crowds arrive.

The tickets can be printed or shown on your smart phone .

For premium matches like Real Madrid or any of the Champion’s League playoff fixtures you’ll probably find slim pickings: if you’re having trouble drop me a line at [email protected] and I’ll try to pull some strings for you!

Camp Nou Stadium Tour History

By the late 1940’s rising football power FC Barcelona had outgrown the Camp de Les Corts and needed a new stadium to house all the new fans generated by star striker Ladislao Kubala .

Cue the aptly named Camp Nou (‘New Camp’).

The city broke ground on this UEFA five star stadium on March 28th, 1954.

When the last brick was laid Camp Nou had a capacity of 99,354 . The ground was set for some of the greatest teams in football history to frustrate opponents – like hated rivals Real Madrid.

Long before any tours of Camp Nou the stadium hosted the Olympics, World Cup (with 120,000 spectators including added standing tickets), the Champions League Final , and even the Pope.

A €600 million Camp Nou renovation project is currently underway – but the games go on!

So, make sure to make your Barcelona football stadium visit in 2024 count 🙂

• January 29, 2020 at 9:02 pm Emma Pomells Firstly ... your site is incredible!!! My son is a huge Messi fan so will probably want the the whole FC barça card ticket. However as I am just tagging along, and definitely not joining in with a virtual training session, can I just buy a standard open ticket and be allowed to go wherever he goes?? Thanks Emma Reply
• November 20, 2019 at 3:22 am spankwire The Camp Nou is the biggest football stadium in Europe, and it has been the setting for countless dramatic moments and wild celebrations. If you are a fan of FC Barcelona (or football in general) you will relish the opportunity to visit the stadium when it is empty. You will be able to enjoy getting up close to the trophy gallery and European cups while learning more about the master himself, Lionel Messi. Reply
• September 12, 2019 at 1:27 pm Lucile Hola Brandi, I will advise you to go there on your arrival date in order to have the full experience, moreover if your sons are huge fans. If necessary, the stadium has a locker where you can leave your luggage and bags. Anyway, I'm sure your sons will still be more than happy with only the museum and the match ;) On a Champion's League match day you can access to the museum and panoramic view until 3 pm.

Camp Nou Experience review: it’s not just for football fans

July 3, 2021 | Posted in: Spain

If you are a football fan then the Camp Nou Experience is a must. This tour takes you through the hallowed halls of Camp Nou in Barcelona, Spain .

I was not into football before I visited Camp Nou. However, I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and I strongly believe anyone will regardless of their view on the beautiful game. Below, you can find my Camp Nou tour review.  

• Camp Nou, Barcelona

For the uninitiated, Camp Nou is the FC Barcelona stadium and has been since it was completed in 1957. This enormous football stadium can seat almost 100,000 fans and is officially the biggest stadium in Europe and the third-largest in the world. On match days, the energy is electric as people from all over the globe come to spectate world-class football.

This Camp Nou experience review will detail exactly what you’re in for if you decide to go one step further than just showing up on match day and opt for all-in immersion. Take note that the cheapest and easiest way to visit Camp Nou is to choose the self-guided Camp Nou Experience . This is a fraction of the price of using an actual real-life tour guide and just as informative.

1. The Stadium

2. the camp nou museum, 3. camp nou virtual experience, 4. robokeeper game, 1. getting camp nou experience tickets, tours that include camp nou, 2. getting to camp nou, 3. tips for making the most of your time at camp nou, camp nou experience review: final comments, the camp nou experience.

Of course, on the Camp Nou Experience tour, you’ll spend some quality time with the pitch. This is, after all, where the magic happens. You’ll get to explore the first team dugout, the field, and the stands. It is quite the experience being able to drink this all in and imagine the legends who have walked and sat in these exact spots over the past few decades.

You’ll also be able to visit the guest changing rooms. For some reason, you’re not allowed into the Barcelona FC changing rooms, although the audio guide suggests that they are much more impressive. As you explore the changing rooms, you can only imagine the atmosphere that is created when coaches and managers give their half-time pep talks to adrenaline-fuelled players before the game resumes.

Next up, you’ll visit the player’s tunnel, through which so many champions have walked before. The stadium will be empty when you walk through, so you’ll have to use your imagination to picture what it would be like to emerge from the tunnel to the sound of 100,000 screaming fans.

As I walked through it, I was torn between wanting to get it all on camera and knowing that photos would never do it justice. The photos don’t do it justice but at least I can look back at them and feel transported back to that time and place.

After the tunnel, you’ll get to visit the press rooms, where press conferences take place pre and post-match. Then you’ll enter the Mixed Zone, where teams comment on their performance after the game. And, finally, you’ll head to the commentary boxes, where the commentators sit and give a running narrative as the game is underway.

The Camp Nou tour gives you a holistic view of the stadium. As you visit each part of the football stadium, your audio guide will explain its significance and give you its history along with some facts about what you can see.

The audio guide is well worth paying a bit more for as it'll help you get the most out of your Camp Nou Experience.  

The history of the club goes back over 100 years and every big moment throughout those years is commemorated in the Museum.

The Museum steps away from the Camp Nou football stadium itself, which you have already seen in detail, and focuses on the club and its achievements. From the club’s beginning in 1899 through to the present day, FC Barcelona has won an astonishing number of trophies.

In the shiny glass cabinets that make up the bulk of the historical section of the Museum, you will see the club’s five Champions League trophies. If you’re up for it, you can have your photo taken as you hold a Champions League trophy aloft. For true football fans, this is an absolute must.

If that’s not enough, you can pick up some merchandise in the FC Barcelona shop on your way out of the Camp Nou stadium. What better way to honor the beautiful game than by taking home some club Barcelona stash. Just remember you might have a baggage allowance on your flight home (although if you do, there is an FC Barcelona shop in duty-free so you can stock up on merch there).

It might not surprise you to know that there is a section of the Museum entirely dedicated to Lionel Messi. Often dubbed the greatest football player of all time, this player is so highly decorated he needs a whole room to display all of his awards.

This space is called the Messi Zone and within it, you can check out his trophies while all of his goals are projected on a screen in the background. Not only can you relive the glory over and over again but you can even vote on which goal you think is his finest.

There are also a number of temporary exhibitions that come and go, which are usually really interesting. Even if you’re not a museum person, this one is well worth taking the time to see properly, especially for the football fans among us.  

It only lasts a few minutes, but the VR experience will give you a sense of what it is like to be in the Camp Nou Stadium when a game is on.

Through the virtual reality headset, you can watch the players in action, playing and training, and see the 100,000 fans cheering them along. As I said, the experience is short but sweet and worth the €6 (if it isn’t already included in your tour package) if you aren’t able to experience a matchday in the flesh.  

You have one minute to take three shots at the robotic goalkeeper. If you score all three goals you get a prize, but don’t count on it being easy. Even Messi himself needed a few goes before he managed to beat the Robokeeper.

You can buy a ticket for the game for €5, which is a bit steep considering you literally only play for one minute. But, it is good fun and who knows, you might win a prize.  

Practical Tips for Visiting Camp Nou

If you don’t get your Camp Nou tour tickets in advance you risk having to wait in a very long queue to get them. Plus, buying tour tickets at the door is usually more expensive (and the Camp Nou tour price is pretty hefty as it is).

The cheapest way to get Camp Nou tickets is by booking them online before you want to go. You’ll also need to choose which FC Barcelona stadium tour you want to go on. The cheapest tour is the Basic Tour, which includes a tour of Camp Nou and entry to the Museum. The tickets for this start at €26.

However, if you upgrade to the Camp Nou Tour Plus you’ll also get the audio guide and virtual experience included in the ticket price. For the Camp Nou Tour Plus, prices start at €35 and change depending on when you visit.

If you want the Rolls Royce experience, the ultimate way to tour Camp Nou is by splashing out on the Players’ Experience Tour, which starts at a staggering €149. If that eye-watering price hasn’t already put you off, let’s have a look at what’s included in this package.

For starters, you will have an actual guide with your rather than an audio guide. Secondly, you’ll be able to view the club Barcelona changing rooms instead of just the guest changing rooms. Thirdly, you get to walk along the Camp Nou pitch and have professional photos taken of you and your pals throughout the tour. Plus, at the end of your Camp Nou experience tour, you will be gifted a memento of the day courtesy of FC Barcelona Camp Nou.  

The easiest way to get to the stadium is to take the metro. The following three stops are the closest to Camp Nou: Les Corts (green L3), Badal (blue L5), or Collblanc (orange L9). The metro map is pretty straightforward so just work out which Camp Nou metro stop is closest to your accommodation and follow the route from there.

You can buy metro tickets from the stations or on the TMB app. There are several different types of tickets, but the best option, if you’re just in Barcelona for a short time, is the T-Casual card, which allows 10 journeys across all modes of public transport.

Alternatively, you can get single tickets as and when you need them, but these are expensive (5 single tickets costs more than the 10 tickets in one with the T-Casual card).

If you would rather travel by bus, any of the following buses will get you to Camp Nou: 50, 54, 57, 70, 75, D20, H8, H10 and V3. Take note that buses can get stuck in traffic and therefore generally take longer than the metro, so factor that into your travel time.  

First of all, make sure you give yourself enough time to experience the Camp Nou stadium tour and the museum without feeling rushed. The whole thing can take up to three hours so allocate yourself that much time. If you finish early that’s fine, it’s better than not having enough time for what will probably be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I spent two hours exploring the stadium and museum and I’m not even a football fan. I can only imagine how long a hardcore fan might spend there.

You should aim to get there nice and early to avoid the crowds and the midday heat. This is Spain, remember – it can get very hot at lunchtime, especially in the summer months. Also, the earlier you get there, the longer you have to explore the stadium and museum. There is no time limit!

I know I have said this before but it bears repeating: buy the audio guide. It makes a whole world of difference and it is just a one-off expenditure. It gives so much context to your stadium tour that you will come away from the Camp Nou Stadium feeling like an expert and that you really had an immersive experience.

Don’t wear green if you want your photo taken on the pitch. Apparently the green of the grass swallows up anything else that is green and you will find your torso is absent from your snaps.

Take a snack and water with you. If you’re going to spend three hours on the tour and in the museum, you want to make sure you are well fed and watered. You’ll feel rubbish if you didn’t get to view certain bits because your rumbling stomach made you cut the tour short.

Tickets for the stadium tour are digital but it never hurts to print them out anyway just in case. There have been instances where digital tickets have not been accepted for whatever reason. Plus, if your phone dies then it's game over and you won’t be able to get in.

You should also know that you cannot do a Camp Nou tour if it is a match day. All of the tour facilities close when a game is underfoot, understandably. When you are booking your tickets they won’t let you book if there is a game on that day.

If you want to see a match and do the tour you will have to make two separate visits to the stadium and you will have to pay for the two excursions separately. Buying a ticket to view a game doesn’t give you access to the museum or the club rooms etc.  

FC Barcelona Camp Nou is not just for the football-crazy and it is more than just a place to watch a match. Camp Nou is one of the world’s most famous football stadiums and is home to a club that is internationally recognized as one of the best in the world. Some view football as a religion, others couldn’t care less, but everyone should check out the Camp Nou stadium and museum while they are in Barcelona.

This review has gone into details about everything you can see and do at the football stadium on the Camp Nou Experience tour, but it doesn’t compare to visiting in real life. Of course, if you truly love football then your ultimate goal will be to see a match at Camp Nou.

However, if the tickets are out of your price range or there simply aren’t any available, this tour still gives you the chance to view the Camp Nou stadium and all the achievements of the club without breaking your bank.

All in all, this is a top-notch experience for people of all ages – and it is something a little different from what you might usually do on a city break. There are always churches to visit and art galleries to admire , but a fully immersive stadium tour is far more unique. So, grab your tickets and head over to Camp Nou so you can review the experience for yourself.

Catherine says

I am not a football fan at all, but seeing the backstage areas sounds fascinating! Definitely an experience :)

It really was fascinating. Also because there was some music being played in the different rooms and you really felt like you were there when things were happening.

Gran Canaria Local says

We are football fans, but definitely not Barça supporters. We did go to the Camp Nou to watch a CL tie between FC Barcelona and Chelsea, however. It was a 2-1 win to the home side but Chelsea triumphed 4-2 in the return. Happy nights. It’s sad that there’s so much obsession over Barça and Real Madrid across the whole of Spain, however. It would be great if everybody followed their local team a little more closely.

I won’t get into which team to support, those are dangerous grounds :D

The Guy says

Great to hear you enjoyed the experience Sofie even though you are not a fan. I guess this must be one of the if not THE most popular tourist attraction for the city. Did you get chance to attend a game as well to see what the full experience was like?

I’ve done the odd stadium tour but never this place. I must admit it is great to have that experience of going down the tunnel.

Hey Guy, there was no game scheduled for the time we were there, so we didn’t get to see one. Otherwise we would’ve tried to get tickets:)

Rashaad says

I’m a football fan but not an FC Barcelona fan. That said, the Camp Nou certainly seems like an amazing place to visit.

It’s quite impressive indeed.

Tim | UrbanDuniya says

Very interesting! It seems like the type of place which is interesting for so many other reasons. Now I’m wishing I had gone there when I visited Barcelona last year!

You can always go back:)

Nadine Delaney says

What a wonderful blog, I really enjoyed reading your experience at Camp Nou. You are absolutely correct with your title. You don’t have to be a football fan to enjoy your time at the camp. Loved your pictures as well.

Here’s my article on the Camp Nou experience.

Thanks Nadine! Sorry, I don’t allow promotional links in the comments to stop spammers. You always have the option to leave a url in the information field when you comment:)

Thank you very much for this charming and enriching blog. I agree with you that the site is not just for soccer fans :)

I’m happy you think so too :)

Tips to Prepare for your Camp Nou Tour

Whether you are a huge Barça fan or not, going on a Camp Nou tour is one of the most fascinating things to do in Barcelona .

If you are spending 1 day in Barcelona you may not prioritize the club, but if you have four days or more , or are a huge football fan, I am sure this will be on your list.

Since 1968, FC Barcelona motto has been “Mes que un club”, which translates into More than just a club, and this sentence embodies the philosophy and spirit of the club and hints at the fact that you are not only going to learn about football if you go on a tour of Camp Nou.

Visiting Camp Nou is learning more about one of the oldest, most popular, wealthiest and well-known sports clubs in the world, and also learning a bit more about Catalonia and Barcelona.

Plus, what about seeing Europe’s largest stadium which can accommodate almost 100,000 people through a pair of virtual reality goggles? 

Or seeing the changing rooms where the players get ready before every match (Pst: there are jacuzzis and secret exhibits in there too)?

Have you ever wondered how a football game is broadcasted and where the journalists sit? Or how the players get into the stadium?

In this article, you are going to learn everything you need to know to prepare for your Camp Nou Tour and, if you fancy, a bit of background on the club and its history by the hands of a fierce “culer” (that’s how we call Barça fans and it alludes to butts – more on that later) who has been to the stadium dozens of times to watch the games live.

Let’s get started, shall we?

Tips for your Camp Nou Tour 

Hundreds of thousands of people visit Camp Nou every year, exactly 1,7 million, and the precinct can become pretty crowded. However, despite its popularity, I found that there isn’t that much detailed information out there about what to expect on a Camp Nou tour, so I wanted to give you a few tips to make the most of it. 

Consider these hacks to avoid crowds and make the most of your visit.

1. Don’t just show up

Many people show up at the stadium without much thought. If you do that, you will only be able to visit the museum or go on a self-guided tour, or might have to wait for the next available tour. Maybe not even that, because it can be sold out.

If you then want to join one of the VIP experiences, you will not be able to as those need to be booked ahead. 

Don’t get me wrong, the museum is great and gives you a lot of insight into the club, Catalonia and football. But the club now offers some amazing experiences that show you the changing room, the media space, the player’s tunnels, etc. and it would be a shame to miss them . 

I really enjoyed my Players Experience Tour which includes some of the closed-off backstage parts of the stadium only open to the players and the team. 

But there are several other tour options at more affordable prices and which are equally amazing. Check out below the list of Camp Nou tour options.

The above table lays out the details of all the Camp Nou tours but I wanted to tell you a bit more about the two premium experiences because they are quite unique.

The Match day tour takes place on the day of a La Liga match and because of this, you will get the chance to see the press room ready with all the cameras and the media space filled with the journalists waiting to start broadcasting the game.

To note that if you want to visit the stadium on match days, you can ONLY do it with this tour, other than that, only the museum will be open when there is a game.

This is a very unique experience to see what goes behind the scenes at one of the largest stadiums in the world and for one of the most popular sports globally. The experience is pretty exciting. You will also be shown to the VIP area for those with premium tickets and will get a personalized pass and a gift.

The Player’s experience tour is the one I took and it is really cool. What makes this one more amazing than the rest is the chance to see the changing room of the Barça players. This is the most sacred part of the stadium and is off-limits to anyone but the players, unless you are an exclusive participant on this tour.

It is also the only tour that affords you the chance to walk along the pitch, not in the small section that everyone gets to see but also along the empty part only open to the tour participants (like in the picture above). You can also sit in, not just see, the press zone and take a photo as if you were the club’s manager (like mine at the top).

Another great add-on (which you can also buy separately with any other tour) is a souvenir photo with the players behind. This tour also includes the virtual reality goggles which are pretty cool if you have never been to a game, you put them on and see the stadium full, on match day, as if you were a spectator!

2. Don’t miss watching a game live

It doesn’t matter if you are a huge football fan or have never watched a match in your life, Camp Nou is an experience like no other and seeing 100,000 people cheer on the team and chant is magical, no matter how much you love or hate football.

Camp Nou is one of the largest stadiums in the world, for years it was just the second-largest after Maracana in Brazil now after the one in North Korea , it is also the largest in Europe. 

Long gone are the days of standing areas in the goals where the ultra-right Boixos Nois (our version of hooligans) would stand and chant relentlessly, now all tickets are seated and Camp Nou is about to engage in a massive refurbishment of the stadium called Future Camp Nou.

Don’t miss the chance to see the world’s greatest team play live (ok I might be a bit biased but many agree with my statement). 

How to get tickets?

Getting tickets to see FC Barcelona play live is really easy. However, bear in mind that games against eternal rivals Real Madrid or FC Espanyol are usually sold out weeks ahead and pretty pricey. 

3. Use the Turistic bus

Most visitors to Barcelona don’t realize that Camp Nou is pretty far from the city center and that there is little to do or see around it, and so a visit is a dedicated effort just for the Camp Nou tour. But don’t let this deter you, be smart and make the most of it.

To make the most of your trek to Camp Nou, and hit some of the Gaudi Barcelona landmarks and other Barcelona attractions that are on the way, use the Hop on Hop off Bus Turistic which has a line that covers Camp Nou . 

The Blue line stops at other places in the periphery of Barcelona such as Park Guell, the tram stop for Tibidabo amusement park, the Monestir de Pedralbes with the largest Gothic cloister in the world and the Guell Pavilions (near another Gaudi sight) from where you can walk down to the stadium as I did.

See the next point on this list to read about the sights you can visit on your way to Camp Nou.

4. Don’t miss the Gaudi sites near Camp Nou

As I was telling you, there isn’t much to see or do near Camp Nou. 

The stadium is in the Les Corts neighborhood which is a primarily working neighborhood with lots of offices, hospitals and the faculties of the University of Barcelona but with few of the traditional tourist attractions. 

However, there are a couple of places worth checking out if you come all the way for a Camp Nou tour , and some of the Gaudi Barcelona sights.

The first one is Monestir de Pedralbes, at the top of Av. Pedralbes. This stunning medieval monastery in the city has the world’s largest cloister and offers audio guides that are super interesting. 

After a visit, you could wait for the next Turistic bus to go down Av. Pedralbes, but you might as well walk, this is a steep tree-lined avenue that goes down all the way to Camp Nou and makes for a pleasant walk. 

On the way, stop at the Guell Pavilions dragon gate which is the next stop on the Bus Turistic. Go check the scary and quite unique wrought iron gate. The pavilions are closed to the public for renovation (they are in pretty bad shape) but the gate is extraordinary.

Then cross Av. Pedralbes and check out one of the least known Gaudi works, the entrance to a former estate that is now a condominium. Walk along Carrer Manel Girona (sharing a name with the city Girona ) away from Av. Pedralbes until you see it on your left, you can’t miss it because there is a small statue of Gaudi himself.

Before you leave, stop by the gardens of the Palau Reial, the residence of the royal family in Barcelona, that is not used much since the King is not welcome to the city. This park used to be part of the Guell Estate and was donated to the King before Guell’s death.

5. Avoid the crowds

When I was preparing for my tour, I knew that Barça and Camp Nou were popular, especially since tours started to be offered in 2016. I have been to see the games dozens of times as my dad has seats and my entire family are members.

Plus, living abroad, I always got stopped at immigration by eager officers keen to mention the names of the popular Barça football player of the time. Barça is a universal brand.

I knew people loved Barça, in Catalonia and in the rest of the world. The club has over 150,000 (paying) members who contribute every year to making the club great and the many fantastic players we have had through the years have made Barça even more famous than it already was.

But its popularity goes beyond anyone’s wildest dreams and over 1,7 million people visit Camp Nou every year. In the summertime, the area around the stadium is crowded with people taking selfies with Cruyff’s statue.

I visited last in the winter when it was calmer, and there were still many visitors taking funny selfies and photos imitating the player’s moves in front of the stadium.

To make your visit more enjoyable, I highly recommend coming early in the morning or later in the evening . Check the opening times of the museum and the tours and come before that to take photos of the exterior. 

Bonus points if you can travel to Barcelona in the winter when you can even be lucky and enjoy one of the VIP Player’s Experience tours almost privately for your travel party only. 

6. Decide if you should come on match day

Have you ever wondered what 100,000 screaming excited fans sound like? 

The quick answer is: loud. 

It would definitely be more exciting to visit Camp Nou on game day, particularly if you visited close to the time of a match. Seeing the fans get to the stadium and hearing them cheer on from outside would be electric.

However, tours are not available on match day and the museum and panoramic viewpoints close 3h before the game , so if you are around the stadium there will be little for you to do. The situation is even worse on Champion’s game day when the entire area is closed for the day.

Check the schedule before turning up.

Pro tip : If you are booking tickets for tours online ahead of time, you won’t be able to select match days so you can easily avoid disappointment if you plan ahead.

7. Allow for enough time at the museum

Barça Museum is a full-fledged museum split into several spaces and across two floors that was inaugurated in 2010. There is a lot to see and a lot to read so if you are a Barça or football fan, you can easily spend an hour or longer there.

It would be a pity not to allow for enough time in your tour of Camp Nou to see everything . But if you are pressed for time, here are a few highlights you can’t miss.

The history of Barça is told through exhibits and interactive screens. If you didn’t know, this is the second oldest football club in Spain (after Seville) and one of the oldest football clubs in the world, founded by a German migrant, Mr. Gamper, in 1898, 40 years after the first football club was founded in the UK .

Find the exhibit that explains why Barça fans are called culers. Did you know this was our nickname? 

That is right. Barça is more than just a Club and for Catalans, it is a symbol of our history and identity. The word culer comes from cul and refers to the fans’ bums. 

This is because, in the 1920s, when the club started to expand in fans, the small stadium in Carrer Industria, became too small and when the seats were not enough, fans would sit on the wall that surrounded the stadium. From outside, passers-by would only see their asses and so they started to call them culers. 

The museum has all of Barça’s trophies won through the years, there are some that are several decades old and even a few that were awarded by Franco like the Copa del Generalisimo (which has been replaced by the King’s Cup), now a relic that reminds us of the 40 years of dictatorship that ended in 1975.

Some of the club’s most emblematic and historical objects are on display at the museum, many donated by the players themselves. 

For example, you can see Ronald Koeman ’s boots when he scored the goal that gave Barça the first Champions League Cup in 1992, I still remember that day and get emotional every single time I think of it! Or look out for legendary Maradona’s shirts. 

Of course, all of Messi’s Ballon d’Or collection, he already has 6, the most any player ever got, the last one was awarded in 2019 . Since his football career is nearing the end, this may be the last one he wins. Messi has a space dedicated to him at the museum.

The other person to have a dedicated space is Johan Cruyff . He died in 2016 and is one of the club’s most beloved players and coaches. Here you can see many of his famous quotes and contributions to Barça as a player and as a coach. 

Outside the stadium is a statue in his honor and the new stadium in Sant Joan Despi with his name is the new home for the second team and the women’s team.

Barça also owns several art pieces by famous Catalan painters such as Dali and Miro dedicated to the club for its 75th anniversary and which are on display at the museum. Can you spot them?

8. Browse the shop, it has amazing stuff

Ok, I am a huge Barça fan, and an even bigger Catalanist, but I may not necessarily care too much about football in general, or sports for that matter.

So why am I suggesting to browse a sports shop?

It sounds strange, I know, but the shop is really amazing, it is impossible to leave without buying something. If you are a compulsive shopper, you might want to run for the hills at the end of your tour and avoid the store altogether. 

If you can, stop by, there are a lot of cool items, branded Barça merchandising and such, but also many really awesome sports clothes and apparel. And the store’s design is pretty cool .

9. Check out Tapa 24

If all the touring around Camp Nou opened your appetite, I can highly recommend a stop at Tapas 24 by Carles Abellan . 

The Michelin awarded chef’s casual tapas bar in Camp Nou (he has several other outlets in the city) is a great place to savor amazing tapas. I am a big fan of his work and have enjoyed it at various places including W Hotel Barcelona. 

On top of traditional dishes, Abellan has several signature dishes that elevate the humble tapas to another level.

You will find the usual suspects which he has perfected like bomba, patatas bravas, ous estrellats (broken fried eggs) and fried calamari rings (so soft they melt in your mouth). And then variations on classics like the potato omelet with jabugo ham, the bikini with truffle or the crispy cereal breaded chicken nuggets that are so delicious. Make sure to order bread with tomato to go with the meal. 

A great way to end your visit to Camp Nou for sure. 

Pro tip : Come here at vermouth time (12pm to 2pm) to honor the local tradition of enjoying a glass of vermouth (or any other drink) with some olives, potato chips and anchovies.

A brief history of Camp Nou

Now that you have read all the tips for the best Camp Nou tour, what about learning a bit more about the stadium and the club before your visit?

As I mentioned before, the stadium’s name translates, simply, to New Stadium, Grounds or Field (the word camp means lots of things in Catalan). 

This was not the original name, the stadium opened in 1957 at the height of Franco’s regime, as Estadi del FC Barcelona or FC Barcelona Stadium as ratified in the 1965 referendum. 

This was a rather generic name that was the result of the political situation at the time. The club wanted to name it after its founder, Joan Gamper, but the political establishment, and Franco in particular, would not have approved of a pro-Catalonia, liberal, foreigner and Protestant man’s name to be used and expressed its dislike towards the choice of name. 

In time, the fans started to refer to it as Camp Nou, because it was a new field built in Les Corts, and the name stuck. I have always heard this name and I am a child of the 80s. 

Eventually, in the 2000-2001 season, a new referendum was carried out and the name Camp Nou was officially approved. 

Camp Nou has been one of the largest stadiums in the world in terms of capacity for many years. It used to be second after Maracana in Rio, before this one was modernized and its size reduced drastically to just over 78,000 for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. 

Today, it remains the second-largest football stadium after the one in Pyongyang. It is also still the largest in Europe seating almost 100,000 fans when full.

This large size, 110mx73m, the maximum legally allowed, was a deliberate decision aimed at making the strong defensive strategies of its adversaries more difficult and it is said to have also had an influence in Barça’s football style, never a defensive club.

Camp Nou has evolved through the years and it has expanded and then slightly retracted in the number of seats when the standing positions were removed. 

It is now in the process of undergoing a major renovation which will be completed in 2025 and has been planned to happen while the stadium continues to be in use. Quite a feat if you consider the major work that will take place.

An introduction to Barça’s history

All major football clubs have a long history often intertwined with the local town or city they belong to but FC Barcelona’s history is a very unique one because of its origins and its structure.

FC Barcelona was founded by Swiss Hans Gamper, locally known for his translated Catalan name, Joan Gamper, and his expat friends in 1899 when the sport was starting to take off across Europe. 

When he arrived from Switzerland for professional reasons he started to play football with some friends and eventually decided to found the club of which he would be the coach and president for many years.

As an immigrant to Catalonia, Gamper wanted the club to have a lot of the values that represented the city, a place that was thriving at the time: democracy, universality and a love for sports in general, not just football. He also gave the club the city’s emblems.

These same values have been preserved until today and make the club very different from other sports institutions.

FC Barcelona’s club structure is unique in the world of elite football. The club is a real club, meaning it is run by its members. Anyone can become a member by paying an annual fee, and this gives you the right to vote at the general elections and in other matters. All members are the same.

Barça stands strong with almost 150,000 paying members, each with a valid and individual vote to decide the club’s future, approve its budget and elect its President. 

Unlike other well-known clubs in the French and British leagues who are owned by millionaires and companies, Barça is owned by its fans. It always has been and always will be. It is self-financed and it is not at the mercy of an individual. All its profits are reinvested, never paid out to shareholders.

In case you didn’t know, for many years, Barça carried the UNICEF logo on its t-shirt, not because the charity was a sponsor of the club, but because the club donated to the charity. Since 2006 , Barça has contributed over EUR15 million to projects run by UNICEF.

After its foundation, the club struggled to find a stadium for many years, land was scarce as a result of the city’s expansion and development (these were the years of Sagrada Familia , Casa Batllo , La Pedrera and Eixample). 

In the 1910s, it finally managed to open a stadium in Carrer Industria and the first victories against Madrid, interest in football and in the club increased. 

Fans started to congregate at the Canaletes Fountain to see the result of the games announced on the board outside the newspaper kiosks, a tradition that has been maintained, not to watch the results, widely available on the radio and TV, but to celebrate the club’s triumphs.

Today’s badge was also designed then, with the Catalan flag and the cross of Saint Jordi, Patron Saint of Catalonia, and the colors of the club.

Barça’s importance and victories continued to expand and a new stadium in Les Corts, where it is today, was built in 1922. Spanish La Liga started in 1929 and Barça won the first year. 

The 1930s were dark in Barça’s history with the Republic, the Spanish Civil War and the assassination, by Franco, of the club’s President Sunyol, a Catalan MP, for opposing the regime. The Joan Gamper committed suicide. Franco’s troops also dropped a bomb on the stadium that destroyed it.

During Franco’s times, Barça struggled but remained a core element of Catalan culture and heritage. In the 50s, it saw bright years thanks to Hungarian player Kubala, a beloved football hero that brought home many titles. In 1957, Camp Nou opened as the largest stadium in Europe, a top spot it has maintained.

Towards the end of Franco’s dictatorship, Barça started to thrive again. It was in 1974, for the 75th anniversary of the club, that the anthem was written and many members of the Catalan society (Dali, Miro, Tapies) came to celebrate and donated pieces. Cruyff was also signed on as a player.  

When Franco died, Camp Nou first displayed the largest amount of Catalan flags since the Civil War. One month after his death, against R. Madrid, the stadium was colored in yellow and red. 

With democracy, Barça entered into its golden period, stars like Diego Armando Maradona, President Núñez, the Dream Team of the 1990s who finally won the club’s first Champion’s League in 1992 at Wembley Stadium. Cruyff’s last words to the players before jumping on the field that day, “Go out and enjoy it”, are inscribed at the bottom of his statue outside Camp Nou.

Today, Barça is a club with fans all over the world. It is the wealthiest club in the world by revenues, over EUR800 Million in 2019 , 10% more than the next club on the list, Real Madrid. 

It is also one of the top-2 football clubs with the largest number of social media followers (when all social media platforms are included beyond just IG, Facebook and Twitter FC Barcelona may overtake Real Madrid), more than the entire NFL league . 

The club’s prominence gives a voice to Catalonia’s political aspirations and its rivalry with Real Madrid reaches a climax every season in two games that are some of the most-watched in the world with the new timetable earlier in the day in recent years accounting for the growing Asian fan base of both clubs. 

I have visited 120+ countries and traveled extensively for work and pleasure in Africa where the club has fierce fans, and the love for the club does not understand of politics or history, it is the pure love for beautiful football played with grace and elegance.

Barça’s “Mes que un club” motto

If you ever watched a Barça game, it is likely that you will have seen the club’s motto somewhere on the stadium or even on the colorful mosaics that fill the seats in key matches. 

“Mes que un club” translates to More than just a club and it alludes to the club’s links to Catalonia and Catalan traditions, history and heritage, and to its commitment to sports at large. 

The motto was first coined by the club’s president in 1968 and it has stuck. It is the closest way to express what the club means for the region and for its people and it is generic enough that it could survive Franco’s regime censure.

On its website and the museum, Barça states that the motto means “We are more than a team of great stars, we are more than a stadium full of dreams, we are more than the goals we’ve scored and more than the trophies that we’ve won throughout our history”.

Barça is much more than the famous football club that most people will recognize it for. It is the several other sports at which the club excels at such as hockey, basketball or the women’s teams. 

It is the youth academy, the 18th-century farmhouse La Masia , now 40 years old , where many of Barça’s famous players (including Messi) started, and where Barça’s values of HEART are taught. 

Barça is also the many international football academies across the world (including Singapore where my partner’s daughter learned to play football) where girls and boys learn to play the sport.

The club is more than sports, it is a symbol of Catalan cultural identity, a political and historical referent for Catalonia, our ambassador in the world, and the place where the Catalan flag has always been raised and flown freely, even during Franco’s dictatorship. 

It was during that time that Camp Nou became one of the few places where people could speak Catalan in public. Franco banned the use of the language and repressed our heritage but he could never appease the fans on their own turf. 

The stadium was too big and there were too many fans for the Guardia Civil to take action, so they would stay outside and not come in. People felt safe, and they felt this was the only place where they could be among equal Catalanists even if grand displays of Catalan identity at the stadium only started in the 70s with loudspeaker announcements using again the Catalan language.

In more recent times, Barça continues to be a political symbol of Catalonia. Famous players such as Pique, husband of Shakira , is regularly seen at rallies with his two sons (and probably wife, although hidden from the cameras) in support of Catalonia’s independence. 

Shakira herself shot the 2014 video clip for Empire , one of her most popular songs, against the background of famous holy Montserrat Mountain , where the statue of Our Lady of Montserrat, Patron Saint of Catalonia, is. 

Guardiola, first a player under Cruyff and later coach, called for people to go to the polling stations during the 2017 referendum and was seen as a major proponent of the Catalan independence vote.

At every game, on minute 17, the stadium erupts in chants for Independencia, recalling the year 1714 when Catalonia lost its independence and identity during the War of Secession, the beginning of the region’s struggle for recognition. 

If you visit Camp Nou, I hope that you will also feel this motto during your tour.

What Do You See on the Camp Nou Experience Tour?

As someone who isn’t a football fan, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from the Camp Nou Experience. However, I was happy to discover that, football fan or not, there’s definitely something for everyone to enjoy on this stadium tour. Well worth a visit if you’re in Barcelona !

Camp Nou is home to FC Barcelona, and is one of the worlds most famous football stadiums. Seating almost 100,000 fans, it is the largest stadium in Spain and Europe and the fourth-largest association football stadium in the world by capacity.

It’s easy to see why the Camp Nou experience is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Barcelona.

As a side note, if you’d like experiences within the tour to be a surprise, this post isn’t for you!

The FC Barcelona Museum

The FC Barcelona Museum gives you all the interesting history behind the team, right from the beginning and where they started to where they are now. With all the random bits of information and facts dotted about, there is something for everyone whether you’re a big fan of the game or not.

You can also see all the trophies they’ve won, Messi’s Golden Boot and Ballon D’ors trophies and other cool bits and pieces of memorabilia such as old boots, balls and tickets on your way round.

Tour of Camp Nou

Once through the museum, it’s time to take on the stadium tour. The Camp Nou experience offers much more than just a view of the stadium though, and you’ll get access to various areas that can only be seen via the tour.

The end of the museum area leads you out to your first outdoor view of the stadium. Entering the seating area from the middle section of the stadium gives you amazing panoramic views. Here you can take a moment to enjoy the view, have a sit down on the seats and if you have a good enough imagination, imagine you’re at a game. This area is a great spot to get those wide shots of the stadium to capture all it’s glory.

Heading back down, you’ll make your way towards the mixed zone. This is where you’ll see the long backdrop where teams speak to the press after matches. Apparently, there’s space for up to 100 reporters in here! Right next to that are you’ll see the Ricard Maxenchs press room with the high table and audience seating.

Next up is the Away dressing room, and here you can see how they have all the lockers and benches, the physio tables, vending machines and even a jacuzzi! Close to the dressing room, you’ll be able to get a glimpse into the stadiums chapel too.

And then it’s time.

Time to walk through the player’s tunnel. A place where so many champions have stood previously and still do stand…

Standing Pitch Side in Camp Nou

It might be a much quieter entrance as you make your way out into the stadium, but the wow factor is still there. Despite already seeing the stadium from a higher spot, walking out onto the pitch from the tunnel does give you that feeling of overwhelm. The sheer size of the stadium combined with how close everything still feels is such an odd experience. I can only imagine what it would feel like with 100,000 fans screaming!

So you’re on the pitch. You can see the dugout areas and get a sense of how being on the pitch itself feels. If you think about how many players and managers have stood in those exact areas, it is quite an incredible feeling to also be there in those spots.

Commentary and Press Boxes

Moving on, you’ll make your way back up to the top of the stadium. Here you’ll get the see the commentary and press boxes, where pundits will be seated and talking about everything that’s happening on the pitch. The boxes in the gantry here contain 192 work desks, 2 television studios and 28 commentary boxes, so it really is a cool area to see.

Other Areas Surrounding Camp Nou

You’ll end the tour in the FC Barcelona shop – of course. Three floors of Barcelona gear, from full kits to pens and keyrings. There are some really nice bits of clothing in here, but if you’re not sure you want to spend the money here you can always go into one of the many FC Barcelona shops more central within the city. They’re everywhere.

Outside there are also some toilet blocks, a cafe area and the main ticket offices so you can have a little wander around before leaving.

Practical Tips on Visiting Camp Nou

So, you want to try the Camp Nou Experience? You can purchase tickets directly on the FC Barcelona website , and there are a few different tour experiences available. There’s the Basic Tour (as detailed above!), the Player’s Experience Tour, Basic Tour with Audio Guide and the Flexible Tour ticket.

Purchasing Tickets

The basic tour includes a visit to the Barça Museum and the Camp Nou Tour and is 26€ when purchased online, or 29.50€ from the box office on-site. Each visit is estimated to last between 1.5-2 hours, but this will really depend on how much time you take to read all the information in the museum, and how long you spend within the stadium.

If you want to really splash out on a special experience, the Player’s Experience Tour comes in at 119€. It is much more expensive, but you do get a much bigger package that includes: an official guide, VIP access and a tour of private areas, access onto the pitch/goal area, seeing the Barcelona changing rooms rather than the guest ones, an Official FCB gift, professional photos and free shirt personalisation.

Make sure to check the football fixtures for your visit, as the website states that tours are cancelled on and around match days.

How To Get There

From central Barcelona, the easiest way to get to the stadium is to take the metro. There are three stops that are pretty close to the stadium, as these are Les Corts (green L3), Badal (blue L5) and Collblanc (orange L9). The metro is simple to get around on, just work out which of these lines/stops is nearest to your hotel and follow the route. We got on the orange line, getting off at Collblanc. It was a 5-10 minute walk from there to the stadium, and really simple to navigate.

You can also travel by bus, and the following routes will get you to Camp Nou: 50, 54, 57, 70, 75, D20, H8, H10 and V3. Buses do generally take a bit longer than the metro due to potential traffic, so that’s just something to think about when planning.

Camp Nou Tour Review: My Experience At The Club That’s ‘More Than A Club’

by Jub | Jul 12, 2018

Whether you like football or not, almost everyone is familiar with Futbol Club Barcelona.

Pretty stoked to on the ground level of Camp Nou!

I remember being surprised at seeing FC Barcelona seat covers on scooters in Thailand & In India, one of the easiest ways to get kids talking is to simply ask ‘Messi or Ronaldo?’

I prefer rugby over football. But visiting Camp Nou, the stadium, and home of FC Barcelona? That’s exciting.

My two biggest questions going into the tour were:

Why do people all over the world choose to support Barcelona Football?

How does football fit into the culture of Barcelona?

There are three sections in this Camp Nou tour review. My experience at the stadium, an FAQ and my answers to the questions above.

My Camp Nou Tour Review

A view of Camp Nou using my iPhone fish lense from Pixter

I knew the tour was popular, but even on a midday afternoon you could have placed me in the middle of La Rambla and I’d believe you. She was crazy busy.

Thankfully people book tickets online, so the queue for tickets was short.

Passing through the gate, I picked up the audio tour for €5. In general audio guides are a good value decision.

There’s is an option to get a private guided tour, but that was an expensive option , especially as I went on my own (in a group it would beok)

I’ve had guides when visiting Denver’s Mile High Stadium and Melbourne’s MCG and they made the experience 23x better through their epic storytelling.

Any how after a few cash cow photo ops (no obligation to buy), I started the tour in the museum. Wow, the place was chaotic. With so many people and lots to see I was flustered.

After doing a walk through I figured out how the audio guide worked. The little microphone signs were camouflaged on the tables (a minor inconvenience).

The tunnel connecting you too the museum, once you buy pass the photos

The first thing I noticed when entering (besides the crowd) was the trophies. So many trophies! They’ve been a club striving for excellence from the start that’s for sure.

The audio tour starts off by following the eight or so large tables featuring photos and text (in English, Spanish and Catalonian) highlighting special moments from the clubs history. The audio guide is like a concise version of the important parts of each decade (there is a lot of text on the tables). You’ll also seem some cool bits and pieces of memorabilia at the end of each table.

A glimpse into the amount of people you can expect at the stadium

There is a big interactive screen where you can play around with different sections and highlights from the club. I didn’t spend any time here, there was always a tonne of people.

After you’ve learned all about the history, the next stage has yet more trophies from both football and other sports the club represents like hockey and basketball. There are also some other bits and pieces, jerseys and large photos of legendary Barca teams.

A couple of special moments in FC Barcelona history

Then you get to Messi. He may well be Argentinian but Barcelona have well and truly adopted him. You can see what I believe are replicas of his personal trophies he continues to collect in a dedicated corner. A nice touch!

A wicked image of Messi, replica golden boot in the front. Can you see the tourist?

After the museum you get to the stadium. Highlights include seeing:

• views of the field from three vantage points
• the press room
• the changing rooms
• three areas to have a bite to eat and a drink
• foosball tables
• being able to walk through the tunnel, passing the church

I found the church so random! Guess a quick prayer before game time never hurt anyone?

The great thing about the tour was not being forced through from one section to the next, you can take your time and chill. Insert cheesy quotes intended to make the hair on your arms stand up.

Left: Media room, where the interviews go down. Right: Changing rooms.

The media room and changing rooms are cool to see, but you only need to take a quick photo out of obligation. These are two areas where guides are great. So many great stories come from both of these places.

Looking towards one end of the field from the ground floor

On the halfway line, would love to be here in game!

My favourite view, of course, would have to be from the sideline. Looking up at the stadium, while you can never grasp the atmosphere, you can put your imagination to good use. Also, nice branding by Nike and Qatar, I’ll always associate them with Barcelona with their large logos on the stadium seats. There is a place where you can have a bite to eat and drink just above this section too, why not prolong the view just above the playing field?

No the worst view to write live updates from

The other great view is from high up in the press room. It’s always a tight squeeze up there but most seats offer an excellent view over the top of the stadium. Unfortunately, I totally forgot to use my audio guide through these sections, but again, a cost-effective guide option is perfect for these areas.

The other view is immediately after coming out of the museum tour, it’s a nice spot to sit for a while in the stands. Purely by view quality, the other two are better.

9 Fun Facts About FC Barcelona & Camp Nou I Learned From My Tour

Camp Nou Fisheye view from where the press sit

• The colours of Barcelona are officially known as blue and claret (I associate claret with a head cut so that’s fun).
• Barcelona had their first star player in Paulino Alcantara (Philippines) scoring 357 goals in 357 matches (debuted in 1911-12). It was said his kick could rip the net due to its power.
• Swiss Hans Gamper founded the club in 1899, putting an advert in a magazine asking if people wanted to form a team.
• The 1968 Spanish Cup Final is known as ‘The Bottle Final’ as spectators threw bottles at Barca players near the end of the game that Barca won 1-0 over rivals Madrid.
• In 1973 the club reinstated their official name, Futbol Club Barcelona.
• Barcelona has gotten involved in the politics of Catalonia from time to time. In 1977 former club President Montal pledged support of re-establishing the Catalan government.
• The clubs anthem, Cant del Barça, was written by Jaume Picas and Josep M. Espinàs to celebrate the clubs 75th Anniversary.
• During the 1950’s, club membership numbers doubled from 26,000 to over 52,000 members.
• Camp Nou opened in 1957, taking three years to build.

And that is just 9! You’ll learn so much on the tour.

FAQ About The Camp Nou Experience

A few questions I can see being asked regularly about visitng FC Barcelona stadium.

I was also lucky enough to see a match in the off season. Barcelona Legends vs. Manchester Utd Legends. View from block 145, row 21, seat 11

What Is The Best Time Of The Day For The Camp Nou Experience?

The shadows make the lighting not the greatest for photos of you

I’m pretty sure the stadium tour is going to busy all day with school groups and large tour groups arriving throughout the day as well as other travelers. I went twice, in the mid and late afternoons and both times were busy.

In regards to getting the best photos of Barcelona stadium, the shadows start to come over the at about 5pm (roughly), so that might play a role in your visit if you want the perfect Instagram shots.

Can You Eat At The Stadium?

Pitch side beer!

You sure can! When you arrive, you’ll find some overpriced food truck style places. Wait until you’re actually inside the stadium and enjoy some food and a cervesa with atmosphere.

The first spot you can grab a bite and a drink is overlooking the field from a courtyard like here. I grabbed a beer here for $3.50, not bad for a beer inside the stadium. Food prices seemed reasonable too.

Then there is a canteen style like place that I walked through, prices seemed similar with the main attraction the video game play area.

The final spot is a open plan restaurant with a couple of foosball tables near by and a big screen projector playing highlights.

I’d go with option one, then three and don’t bother with the canteen style place unless you must play video games forever (be respectful of others wanting a turn).

Is There A Camp Nou Tour Promotional Code?

You might be able to find them cheaper somewhere, but in all likelihood they’ll be fake/dodgy. I’m not aware of any discounts so the cheapest place to get them is online. See the full pricing menu .The tickets in person are like a euro or two more expensive with the booking fee.

Should I Get The Audio Tour?

I enjoyed the audio tour!

Yes! It’s a no brainer in my opinion. Relative to the ticket price the 5 is not much extra for adult.

Can I Still Visit If It’s Raining?

Sure can. 95% of the time you’ll be undercover. When you get to stand pitchside you might get a little wet, but #yolo. Bring a raincoat if you have too!

Where To Stay Near Camp Nou Stadium?

I was staying on the other side of town with a friend so can’t give any personal recommendations. HotelsCombined is a cool place to start searching for hotels near Camp Nou . It’ll search the popular booking websites to figure out the best price for you.

How Long Does The Tour Take?

As long or as short as you want. I asked the staff and they said the average is about 90 minutes. If you read everything, take photos, eat food and drink a beer you could be there for well over three hours (not a bad thing). I took about two hours each time, but was reading everything the first time and then went and took lots of photos and had a beer second time round.

When Is Camp Nou Open?

Check the official site for the latest viewing times (including match day opening hours), or you’ll find out when you’re booking your tickets online .

Is There Any Ban On Camera Equipment? (drones?)

Not from what I could tell. It’d be bad form to take a drone though, getting in the way of photos/narrow takeoff area. Bring along all your cameras, at worst I’m sure you can leave it at a desk somewhere.

On A Scale Of 1 to 10 Is The Camp Nou Experience Worth It?

The tour is busy and the lack of available private guides are definite downsides. The amount of information, great audio tours, ability to move at your own speed, reasonable food, and dining options, and the interactive spots make it a solid 8.5 out of 10.

This is my first stadium tour rating, so I have nothing to gauge that against. Yet.

My Conclusions To My Two Questions

Barcelona play in the best competitions around the world, therefore win important trophies. As they do so, people love to jump on the bandwagon of winning teams so Barcelona is who is chosen. Once you choose a team (like me and the Bulldogs ), it’ll take a lot of effort for one to ever consider switching allegience.

The players they’ve selected to build their club around is impressive. Messi of course has been a great player for over the last decade and is irreplaceable. Previously Ronaldinho became a club favourite. Throughout history, Barcelona have chosen players to bring to the club, who are not only can have a team built around them, but will be one of the best players in the world for the next few years, and will pay them a salary accordingly.

To put it in one sentence, President Narcís de Carreras coined the phrase in 1968 ‘More than a club’.

No idea how to describe this really, but incredibly!

During the tour, one of the descriptions mentioned how immigrants to Barcelona latched onto supporting Barcelona FC as a way to associate themselves with the city. This is massive!

When I was walking around the city, you notice Barcelona football jerseys being worn despite the offseason. The tourist shops that pop up have footy gear prominent. El Clasico, the matches against Madrid, are some of the most watched games in the world.

< p>There is also the idea I’ve come up with that Barcelona represents the nation of Catalonia. Catalonia was to be recognised as a separate identity to Spain and a creating a referendum to push through the cause. It’s unlikely to ever go through due to a few reasons. This means, when Barcelona are playing, it’s essentially their national team playing and everyone gets behind their team at an international level.

The club also became a social integration catalyst in the 1960’s when Catalonia’s population grew by 1.2 million thanks to large migration from Spain’s south. There was large migration in the 20’s with migrants from Valencia, Murcia and Aragaon and the 1990’s with immigrants from other countries. Barcelona helped unite society during these three periods of intense migration.

Ultimately, if FC Barcelona wins, the whole of Barcelona wins.

How was the visit? Any info I missed or that needs to be updated?

Cheers, Jub

You recomend the player experience tour or the traditional or basic tour?

Hey Gianca,

If you love FC Barcelona, I’d recommend the play experience tour. If you’re a football fan in general, the basic tour will be fine.

hey, im off there tomorrow, just wondering as i’ve bought the basic tour, do you get to go on the pitchside or does that only come with the player experience tour?

Hey Lachlan,

Apologies for not responding sooner! You do get to go pitchside right?

Hope you had a great time! Cheers, Jub

So… Did you get to go on the pitch side with basic tour ticket?

Hi Peter, you get to go on a fenced off section of the pitch near the halfway line (this was two years ago)

Hey! We’ve had a really good experince too. We booked the tour at reasontosee.comand it was really good one. Can only recommend 🙂

Hey Petrus,

Stoked you had a good tour. Can’t say I’ve heard of that site at all 🙂

Enjoy the rest of your summer.

Mercato: la presse catalane est unanime, Xavi a changé d'avis et reste au Barça

"Se queda". Alors qu'il avait annoncé son souhait de ne pas poursuivre à la tête du Barça au terme de la saison, Xavi sera bien présent sur le banc catalan la saison prochaine.

>> Les infos mercato EN DIRECT

Ce mercredi soir, la presse espagnole et Fabrizio Romano sont formels: l'entraîneur catalan a été convaincu par les arguments de son président, Joan Laporta , et du directeur sportif, Deco. Tous deux ont milité activement pour le conserver et, lors d'une réunion ce jour, ils ont trouvé les mots pour convaincre l'ancien milieu de terrain de rester, a priori au moins jusqu'en 2025.

Trois mois après l'annonce de son départ, Xavi change d'avis

Le 27 janvier dernier , après une défaite contre Villarreal (5-3) suite à un scénario fou, Xavi avait surpris tout le monde en conférence de presse en annonçant son intention de quitter le Barça.

"C'est une situation qui requiert du bon sens et j'ai décidé que le 30 juin je ne continuerai pas comme entraîneur du Barça. Nous en avons parlé avec Joan Laporta et le secteur sportif et je pense que le club a besoin d'un changement de dynamique. En tant que culé, en pensant au club et aux joueurs, je pense qu'ils se libéreront et seront plus calmes. En pensant en tant qu'homme du club, je pense que le mieux est de partir le 30 juin. Cela dit, je ferai de mon mieux pendant les quatre mois restants, je pense que nous pouvons faire une bonne saison et j'espère que la dynamique changera."

Nouveau Camp Nou, joueurs ciblés lors du mercato... les raisons d'un revirement

Trois mois plus tard, le champion du monde 2010 avec la Roja a donc revu sa position. Ces dernières semaines, les médias espagnols laissaient présager de ce changement d'avis de la part de l'entraîneur blaugrana. Plusieurs cadres de l’effectif lui auraient apporté leur soutien en privé et en public. Désireux d’ajuster son effectif jugé trop juste dans certains secteurs, Xavi aurait discuté de plusieurs cibles (Guido Rodriguez, Dani Olmo). La perspective d’être encore sur le banc dans le nouveau Camp Nou serait une autre raison de sa volonté de continuer.

Moscow: City Sightseeing by Car/Bus

• Description
• Choose date

Visiting a new city is akin to going on a first date, it is something you will never forget. Many people imagine Moscow as just a bunch of sporadic landmarks: Red Square, the Kremlin, Lenin’s Mausoleum and GUM. There is so much more to this wonderful city than that and even though we only have a few hours, we will do all we can to show you everything we know and love about our capital in one fell swoop. We will take you on a journey through the ages, from centuries ago, right up to the modern day, soaking in the sights of this vast and bustling metropolis. Bright, luxurious and both ancient and modern at the same time, Moscow invites you on a date you’ll never forget!

On our sightseeing bus tour of the city, you will see:

• The wonderfully historic city centre and its unique museums, magnificent cathedrals, the exquisite Chambers of the Romanov Boyars and of course, the famous towering red brick walls of the Kremlin, The charming beauty of the Alexander Garden awaits the capital's guests - a lush green oasis in the midst of the glass and concrete clad metropolis, basking in the etherial aura emanating from the whitewashed stone walls of the restored Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the world- renowned fairytale onion domes of St. Basil's Cathedral and other impressive monumental buildings such as the library built in Lenin's honour - the Russian State Library - and the State Duma.
• The Lubyanka KGB headquarters is notorious to members of older generations and although nowadays, the face of the secret police has changed dramatically, the looming enigmatic building on the waterfront maintains its aura of mystery, shrouded in a variety of murky rumours and dark myths. Then, there’s another of Moscow's main attractions - the marvellous Bolshoi Theatre, yew simply cant leave Moscow without taking in its breathtaking architecture. Engrained in the fabric of Russia's cultural heritage, virtuoso performers such as prima ballerina Galina Ulanova, opera singer Feodor Chaliapin and pianist, composer and conductor Sergei Rachmaninoff once stood centre stage of this vaunted institution.
• The memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill was constructed in the glory and honour of our heroes who defended our nation in the many crucial battles of the Great Patriotic War (WWII). This is a place that embodies a particularly acute and inextricable link between older ancf younger generations. Moving on to the Moscow International Business Centre, not dubbed ‘Moscow City' for nothing, a true glimpse of the future in the present. This incredible, rather jaw-dropping project in the capital has shown that Moscow has come to accept the age of the skyscraper. Finally, the stunning views from the observation deck at Sparrow Hills will leave professional and amateur photographers alike itching to capture them. How could one resist?
