Camp Nou stadium, now officially the Spotify Camp Nou, is back in use after its rebuild and will be the largest stadium in Europe when the works finish: 105,000 seats, up from around 62,000 in the current phased opening. It’s also one of the strictest grounds in Spain for what you can carry in. FC Barcelona’s access rules bar backpacks, luggage and baby carriages, every permitted bag is searched, and there are no lockers at the stadium or on the tour. This guide covers the current capacity and timeline, the Barça Immersive Tour, bag rules and prohibited items, how to get to Camp Nou by metro, and where to leave your bags.
Arriving with a backpack? It won’t get in. Store your bags four minutes from Camp Nou, several partners open past 23:00.

Camp Nou Stadium Capacity: Now and When It’s Finished
Barça moved back into the rebuilt Camp Nou stadium in late 2025 with a partial licence, and Barcelona City Council has been signing off new areas in phases. The March 2026 licence (Phase 1C) opened the Gol Nord stand, the Tribuna hospitality areas and the Gol 1957 fan zone, taking the current capacity to about 62,650. The third tier and the final sections follow, and when the works are complete the Spotify Camp Nou will seat 105,000, overtaking Wembley and the Bernabéu as the biggest stadium in Europe. Until then, the construction viewpoint on the tour is the best way to see the scale of it, and matchday capacity is confirmed fixture by fixture on fcbarcelona.com.
The Barça Immersive Tour: Prices, Hours and Match Days
The Camp Nou tour runs as the Barça Immersive Tour from the entrance between the Barça Store and Barça Café on Arístides Maillol. It includes the FC Barcelona Museum, the trophy gallery, the Messi Zone, the 360-degree Live Room and a viewpoint over the construction, with an audio guide in 12 languages. The players’ tunnel, dressing rooms and pitchside access return as the rebuild completes.

Camp Nou Stadium Bag Policy and Prohibited Items
FC Barcelona’s access regulations for the new stadium don’t give a bag gauge; they list what can’t come in, and backpacks are on the list. Small handbags and belt bags are admitted after a search at the outer perimeter. Everything else stays outside, and with no cloakroom you’ll be sent away to find somewhere to leave it.
| Category | Not allowed |
|---|---|
| Bags | Backpacks, suitcases and luggage, large shopping bags, baby carriages and prams |
| Drinks and food | Bottles, cans and glass; alcohol; outside food beyond small snacks |
| Tech | Professional cameras and video equipment, drones, laser pointers, selfie sticks |
| Display | Unauthorised banners and flags, flagpoles, anything with offensive or political messages |
| Dangerous | Flares, fireworks, weapons, drugs, anything throwable |
Tickets are digital and personalised in the FC Barcelona app, and stewards can ask for ID to match the name. Resale tickets from unofficial sites are regularly cancelled; the club’s own resale platform and official hospitality are the safe routes for visitors.
How to Get to Camp Nou
| From | Route | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Plaça Catalunya | L3 (green) to Palau Reial or Les Corts, 10 min walk | About 25 min |
| Sants station | L5 (blue) two stops to Collblanc or Badal, 5 min walk; or 20 min walk | About 12 min |
| El Prat Airport | L9 Sud to Zona Universitària, 15 min walk; or Aerobús to Plaça Espanya + L3 | About 35–45 min |
| Bus | Lines 7, 33, 54, 56, 157 and H8 stop around the stadium | Varies |
| By car | Street parking is restricted on match days; use Sants or Diagonal car parks and walk | Expect closures |
Collblanc (L5) is the closest and busiest exit after a match; Palau Reial (L3) and Les Corts spread the crowd. Night games finish around 23:00 and the metro runs until midnight on weekdays and all night on Saturdays. Sants is close enough to walk back to in 20 minutes if the platforms are packed.
Matchday Tips
- Kick-off times are confirmed two to three weeks ahead and range from 14:00 to 21:00; El Clásico and Champions League nights are usually 21:00.
- Arrive two hours early for big games: the perimeter search, app scan and phased-opening gate routing are slower than the old stadium’s.
- Cashless inside; bring a card.
- Eat in Les Corts or Sants beforehand; the streets around Travessera de les Corts have the classic pre-match bars.
- Check the stand. With the stadium opening in phases, your gate may be on the far side of a construction zone; the app shows the route.
Luggage Storage Near Camp Nou Stadium
The Camp Nou stadium is 12 minutes from Sants station and 40 from the airport, so a large share of visitors arrive with luggage: the tour before a train, a match on the night of landing, a hotel check-out on the day of the game. With backpacks banned and no lockers at the stadium or the museum, the only workable plan is to store bags before you reach the perimeter.
