Official: Camp Nou, venue of the Champions League final

Latest news in Barcelona. The Camp Nou has been chosen by UEFA to host the Champions League 2029 final, a decision made on September 15, 2026 by the Executive Committee of the organization. Barcelona will thus regain the European final three decades later, with the match scheduled for June 2, 2029.

Camp Nou wins Barcelona's candidacy

The designation marks the end of the candidacy process presented by Barcelona, FC Barcelona, the City Council, and the Government of Catalonia. The project also received the support of the Spanish Football Federation, while Wembley was the other candidate to host the 2029 final.

The Camp Nou will be the venue for the Champions League for the third time. The stadium hosted the final in 1989, when Milan defeated Steaua Bucharest 4-0, and again hosted the decisive match in 1999, with Manchester United beating Bayern Munich 2-1.

The choice comes as the venue completes its transformation process. The new stadium is planned to have a capacity exceeding 104,000 spectators, as well as new hospitality areas, accessibility, connectivity, and services for fans.

Barcelona will host a European final again

For Barcelona, UEFA's decision means hosting a Champions League final after 30 years. The last edition held in the city was in 1999, played at the then Camp Nou between Bayern Munich and Manchester United.

The schedule for the upcoming finals is already set. Madrid will host the 2027 final at the Metropolitano, while Munich will be the venue in 2028 before the turn comes to Camp Nou in 2029. The 2027 final is scheduled for June 5, 2027.

The Catalan candidacy was formally presented to UEFA on June 10, with a dossier including the technical, contractual, and institutional guarantees required to organize the match. At that time, the organization still had to evaluate the proposals before making the final decision.

Now, the Camp Nou has a date to once again become the stage for the Champions League. On June 2, 2029, Barcelona will host the male final of the tournament, while the stadium must meet all operational requirements related to the organization of the event beforehand.
