Barcelona Confirms Montjuïc for PSG Champions League Match on Oct. 1

The move reflects unresolved approvals at Camp Nou.

Overview

  • Barcelona announced the PSG group-stage game will be played at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, following UEFA’s listing update.
  • Camp Nou remains unavailable as the club awaits a completion certificate from contractor Limak before seeking a City Council opening licence.
  • The initial Camp Nou phase would hold about 27,000 fans in limited areas, which does not satisfy UEFA requirements for stand availability in Champions League fixtures.
  • Montjuïc is being readied with concert panels removed, natural grass rolls brought from Extremadura for a new pitch, and stadium signage and concessions reinstated.
  • UEFA rules generally require one home venue for all group matches, restricting mid-phase changes, while local agreements keep Montjuïc available into February and some reports suggest a possible Camp Nou return delay into 2026.
