Before the Clásico, Barcelona aimed to succeed both on the pitch and in the boardroom. They achieved both goals. Hansi Flick’s team defeated Real Madrid, mathematically securing the La Liga title, and the club set a new revenue record for a Clásico: €16.4 million.
The final figure is not yet completely set, but if any adjustments occur, they will only improve it. “It’s important to understand that 80% of the capacity went to season ticket holders or individual ticket purchasers. With that percentage and the high demand, we’ve achieved a historic revenue record compared to last year: €13.8 million. We’ll be above €16 million. This is significant news for the project. We’re shifting the business toward VIP products, but members retain priority,” said Manel del Río, Barcelona’s CEO, before the match.
Executives are analyzing the numbers closely, emphasizing the achievement given that the Spotify Camp Nou is not yet at full capacity. Despite reduced supply, rising demand drove up prices. In the coming days, the average ticket price and total revenue from VIP packages—the club’s key strategy for stadium monetization—will be revealed.
Yesterday, the Spotify Camp Nou saw its best attendance of the season (since returning on November 22) with 62,213 spectators. Once renovations are complete, capacity will reach nearly 105,000.
