Barcelona Sets PSG Champions League Home Tie at Montjuïc on Oct. 1

Permitting delays at the rebuilt Camp Nou made Montjuïc the compliant option for now.

Overview

  • FC Barcelona confirmed the Paris Saint‑Germain match on Oct. 1 will be played at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys rather than the Spotify Camp Nou.
  • The club has not yet obtained the Certificate of Final Works or the city’s first‑occupancy license, with technical sign‑offs driving the timeline.
  • UEFA is assessing Barcelona’s request to stage different group‑stage home games at two venues, starting at Montjuïc and later moving to Camp Nou if approvals arrive.
  • Reported UEFA standards on minimum capacity make the proposed 27,000‑seat partial reopening insufficient, while Montjuïc meets competition requirements at roughly 50,000.
  • Barcelona began Montjuïc preparations and announced a 24‑hour priority window for 16,151 loyal season‑ticket holders, with prices for that group ranging from €11 to €37.
