The Catalan capital has always been the home of football with its famous Camp Nou stadium hosting numerous matches every year. However, this record is even more impressive when you consider that Barcelona's attendance at Camp Nou is over 85,000 spectators per match.
In fact, it was reported in December 2019 that the stadium had recorded the highest attendance ever for a game, with fans numbering over 90,000. This marked a significant increase from the previous season's record of 77,460 fans, which was set in May 2018.
This incredible record of attendance at Camp Nou reflects the passion and excitement that fans have for the club. The stadium has become synonymous with the Catalan national team, with many players having played there as well as their families.
However, despite the high attendance figures, the stadium is also facing some challenges. One of the main issues is the cost of maintaining the facilities, which can be expensive. Additionally, the stadium has faced criticism over its infrastructure and fan experience, with some fans expressing concerns about noise and disruption to their sleep.
Despite these challenges, the stadium remains one of the most popular venues for football matches in Europe, attracting millions of fans each year. It is clear that Barcelona is committed to making Camp Nou a world-class venue, and they will continue to work towards achieving this goal.
