Overview
- The RFEF board meeting in Seville approved a three-year agreement that fixes the Copa del Rey final at La Cartuja for 2026, 2027 and 2028.
- The 2025–26 final is scheduled for 25 April 2026 during the Feria de Sevilla, and a local Socialist leader has urged the mayor to seek a date change citing pressure on public services alongside the Jerez MotoGP weekend.
- La Cartuja has staged the last six finals, and the April match would mark a seventh straight Copa del Rey final at the stadium.
- Regional and city authorities highlighted recent renovations and an expanded capacity of around 70,000, with further works planned in the context of major-event preparations.
- Seville’s selection prevailed over interest from Madrid’s Metropolitano and Valencia’s Mestalla, and RFEF president Rafael Louzán presented the deal alongside Juanma Moreno and José Luis Sanz.
