As the country gears up to host the 2030 World Cup, this decade is shaping up to see extensive redevelopment work take place at a number of the most iconic Spanish football stadiums. We have full stadium guides for several of those, while you can also find a complete list of La Liga and Segunda Division stadiums for the 2026/27 season below.
Spanish football stadium guides
Santiago Bernabeu
Real Madrid were busy redeveloping the Santiago Bernabeu in the first half of the 2020s. A shiny new exterior and retractable roof were added giving the stadium a futuristic exterior in sharp contrast to its former look. Inside, things haven’t changed quite as much, with the same basic multi-tiered structure in place, although a few more VIP sections have been added and the capacity remains at just above 80,000.
Estadio Metropolitano
Across the Spanish capital, the Estadio Metropolitano has been Atletico Madrid’s home since 2017, when they left the old Vicente Calderon. While the club’s most successful season since the move (the 2020/21 title win) was played out entirely behind closed doors, Atleti have done a pretty good job of transferring the old atmosphere to their larger new home on the outskirts of Madrid.
San Mames
Athletic Club also started playing in a new stadium in the 2010s, although unlike Atletico Madrid, theirs was built on the same site as the old one. The stunning new San Mames replaced the historic old stadium that had served them for exactly a century in 2013. With a capacity of more than 50,000, it still serves up one of the best atmospheres in La Liga and regularly hosts other major events, such as the 2025 Europa League final.

La Cartuja in Seville joined the list of regular Spanish league stadiums in 2025 for the first time, as redevelopment work commenced at the Benito Villamarin. The Copa del Rey final venue will continue to act as Real Betis’ home ground during the 2026/27 season.
Having spent more than two seasons at Montjuic, Barcelona are now back at their spiritual home of Camp Nou. Construction work continues on the top tier of the new stadium, so it’ll be a while before they’re able to operate at the final full capacity, which will be 105,000. Barca tickets may be harder to get for the games until that point.
Balaidos in Vigo is also undergoing expansion, with the capacity set to reach 31,000 by early 2027. Meanwhile, health and safety concerns at the Estadio Vallecas look set to leave Rayo Vallecano needing to play at least their opening home game at Butarque in Leganes.
Elsewhere, El Sardinero, the Riazor and La Rosaleda return to the La Liga map, following the promotions of Racing, Depor and Malaga respectively. Our Spanish football ticketing guide details the best way to go about securing a seat to catch some live La Liga action.

There are also a number of sizable Spanish stadiums in the Segunda Division, with Las Palmas, Real Oviedo and Sporting all capable of accommodating around 30,000 fans. There’s a wide range of stadium sizes in this league though, with some of the smaller grounds having capacities of under 10,000.
The 2026/27 Segunda Division season will be a quirky one, given it features three island clubs as well as Ceuta, who are based in a Spanish enclave in Africa. Meanwhile, Andorra are essentially a foreign club playing in the Spanish pyramid.
Other major football stadiums in Spain
| Stadium | City | Capacity | 2026/27 Tenants |
|---|---|---|---|
| Benito Villamarin | Seville | 60,379 | – |
| Olimpic Lluis Companys | Barcelona | 55,926 | – |

There are two major stadiums in Spain that are not going to see any football in the 2026/27 season. One is Betis’ Benito Villamarin which is being redeveloped and is scheduled to reopen with a capacity of around 60,000 for the 2027/28 season. The other is the Olimpic Lluis Companys, which will no longer be needed by Barcelona, with Camp Nou open again.
Work is also going on at the Nou Mestalla, which will eventually hold 70,000, although that is located in a different place to the current Valencia ground which is set to remain open until the end of this campaign. Real Zaragoza, who were recently relegated to the third tier, will also soon have a new stadium. La Romareda is expected to hold around 43,000 people when it’s ready, with the club currently playing in the temporary Ibercaja Estadio.
While the lower leagues are mostly full of B teams and smaller Spanish football clubs, you can also find some sizable stadiums in the Primera Federacion or below. The biggest of those is Real Murcia’s home which can host more than 30,000. The Jose Rico Perez in Alicante is another third-tier ground with a capacity of around 30,000, and both have been used for Spain internationals in recent years.
