The women's Barça will also play in Montjuïc. The team led by Jonatan Giráldez will debut in this fiefdom for the F League classic against Real Madrid. It will be on Sunday, November 19, at twelve noon. Furthermore, as La Vanguardia has learned, the club's intention is for the most important matches of the Champions League to also be played at the Estadi Olímpic.
Last year, Barça-Madrid was also played in the same stadium as the men's team. It was on March 30, 2022, in the first classic that the Camp Nou hosted and which broke the world attendance record for a women's soccer match with 91,553 spectators. A match that ended with a Barça victory by 5 goals to 2 and that qualified the team for the Champions League semi-finals. This season, the duel will be in the League.
In total, the Barça women's team has played six times at the Camp Nou, including two world attendance records. The reception from the public has always been exceptional and more than 382,800 people have witnessed a meeting of the Giráldez team in the great Blaugrana fiefdom, now closed for works. Last season, the club registered a record turnover in box office, reaching 2.7 million euros from ticket sales.
With more than a month to go before the match, the club had already sold out all the tickets it had put on sale for this match, which was initially scheduled at the Estadi Johan Cruyff, and will now be able to respond to the high demand from the fans in a stadium with capacity for just over 40,000 spectators. Members will have a 30% discount on the purchase of tickets, which are priced between 19 and 56 euros for the general public. All members who have already purchased their ticket can contact the club to request a redistribution of their location that guarantees the conditions “as equivalent as possible” in the change of location. They also offer the possibility of receiving the entrance fee and returning it if you cannot attend the Olympic Stadium.
In addition to the classic, the club wants to open Montjuïc to women's matches in European matches as well so as not to lose the momentum generated by the team, current League and Champions League champions. Barça will meet their rivals for the group stage on the 20th and will begin the defense of the title on November 14 or 15. The Blaugrana entity has not specified which matches are planned for Montjuïc, whether it will only be for the quarterfinal and semi-final playoffs, or if they are also considering opening it in the group stage if they have an attractive opponent.
