Camp Nou INSANE Progress: New Compression Ring Installed & Massive Roof Transformation

Indexé : 2026-05-22

[00:00:00]Spotify camp now is quickly returning to its iconic worldclass form. Moving from a raw construction site toward its final impressive shape. What once was chaos is now becoming a rising architectural masterpiece.

[00:00:14]A new compression ring failank has just been installed, marking another key step in this transformation.

[00:00:21]Across the stadium, structural systems, facade work, and steel frameworks are all progressing together. But the real question is how far has this rebuild actually come? Right now the biggest development again comes from the compression ring. A new failank section has been installed between the radial beams before filming began. The tower crane slings were still attached showing the installation had just finished.

[00:00:50]Workers were securing the connection while several bolts still remained unfinished.

[00:00:54]This section is now entering the curved corner zone, meaning differentiz failen sections are required to adapt to the changing geometry.

[00:01:03]Crews also continue expanding temporary support systems and scaffolding around the ring while the future roof structure keeps growing rapidly. Heavy activity continues across the upper sections, especially around the south goal area.

[00:01:17]Several workers were operating on the third overhang while additional safety barriers and protection fences have been installed along elevated edges to secure work zones. Activity across the upper levels is increasing, particularly around the third tier and lateral sections where multiple crews are working simultaneously.

[00:01:35]Although some parts of the second overhang appeared quieter today, movement remains constant across interior sections. Inside the south goal and lateral sections, crews continue developing interior spaces and structural enclosures.

[00:01:50]Several areas now contain concrete blocks, reinforcement bars, and partially assembled wall sections, indicating future service rooms, bathrooms, restaurants, and technical spaces.

[00:02:03]More concrete blocks were also visible across the lateral sections where construction materials continue accumulating. Elevated platforms remain active throughout these areas while workers continue operating on multiple structural levels.

[00:02:17]Let's take a look at this corner area, which has become one of the most active zones of the site in recent days, showing continuous progress across multiple fronts. We can clearly see the diamond area has now been fully concreted, while a few rear sections are still catching up with formwork and finishing works. The improvement here is now very visible.

[00:02:40]A large amount of material is also stored in this zone, including llamas, felances, and radial beams. All ready for installation as the work keeps moving forward in sync across different sections. At the same time, facade installation is progressing well with front llamas nearly complete and new pieces being positioned at the rear while finishing works like painting and structural treatment continue nearby.

[00:03:06]We are in the G norte corner area right next to the slope where clear activity is building up across multiple zones.

[00:03:14]Several aerial platforms are operating in this section, especially in the area where sophet llamas will soon begin to be installed as this zone moves into the next phase of facade closure. A closer look shows some temporary elements like light poles and support structures still present. While behind them, the work on anchors and structural connections continues to progress. At the lower level, the llamas are already stored and ready on site. So, installation is expected to begin very soon if the pace continues. We move into the central part of the gold norte section where two workers are visible operating from an aerial platform working on structural preparation. They appear to be applying protective or fireproof coating on bolts and steel elements before the next installation phase. Across the area, several beams and connection points are still being treated with white coating visible across different sections of the structure. On the side, concrete activity is also ongoing, showing that structural and finishing works are happening in parallel across this zone.

[00:04:21]We are now in the tribuna area where workers are installing sandwich panels along the upper section of the structure. A new panel has just been placed filling one of the vertical structural gaps from the upper beam down to the lower level. To the side, additional activity can be seen with platforms working on pipe installations and structural elements across the upper level. Nearby, more sandwich panels are already stacked and ready, indicating that this zone is entering a more active phase of closure works. This corner area will eventually become one of the most important sections once work begins on the ticket office and store diamonds.

[00:05:00]For now, materials are already visible on site. Along with the Salvador truck responsible for installing aluminum profiles and glass panels in these sections, there is also noticeable movement around the curve area, especially near the structural cores where work continues progressing steadily. Supports are already installed around the superpillar, so the first horizontal bars for closing this new ring section could appear very soon. In this lateral sector, work continues on the decorative diamond structures which are gradually starting to take shape as construction advances section by section. From the central viewpoint, we can also see the longest stretch of decorative llamas currently installed.

[00:05:40]And from this angle, the blogana color effect becomes much more visible across the facade. Looking closely at the central llamas, the integrated LED spotlights can already be distinguished with each llama containing two LED units positioned between the perpendicular sections. Meanwhile, toward the GU lateral corner, exposed pipes and some radial beams remain visible in the background, while the overall panoramic view of the stadium now shows far more continuity across the decorative llama installation. We are now in front of Lamasia, checking once again for progress around the compression ring where yesterday new supports for the box sections had already appeared above the core structures. At this moment, activity is starting to increase with workers moving tools, materials, and structural elements while the radial beams and pillars remain in position for installation. We can already see the radial beam being placed and installed onto the prepared pillar, marking one of the key movements in this section. So far, the structure already includes 15 ring pillars, 15 radial beams, and around 30 installed box sections, showing the steady pace of progress across the stadium. We are now down in the corner area right between Goulsur and Tribuna where several aerial platforms are actively working across the lower section showing steady progress across multiple fronts. In parallel, painting works are ongoing with teams using rollers to apply a white protective coating on beams and bolts, carefully treating the structure ahead of the next installation phase. At the same time, the area is being prepared for upcoming panel and llama installation with materials already on site and structural supports in place, clearly indicating the next stage of construction is getting closer. A few details from today's visit that round out the full picture. Small support brackets have been installed between the pillars and elevator shaft areas on the mobility cores. Both left and right sides confirmed, indicating that elevator related interior fit out is progressing alongside the structural and facade work. Black tubes are visible running along the underside of the cantaliever in the go zone, part of the ongoing interior service installation that runs parallel to the exterior cladding work. On the parking entrance wall, the lighting system that had been worked on during the previous day's visit is now fully operational.

[00:08:14]Lights on, tested, working. And in the interior of the structure, plasterboard installation was observed actively underway in certain zones with workers on platforms managing the fit out from the inside out. The project isn't just growing upward and outward. It's filling in from every direction at once. The North Goal Corner is also extremely active today.

[00:08:37]Multiple lifting platforms are operating simultaneously while workers install additional curved supports that will later connect directly to the LAMA systems. Large quantities of supports remain stored nearby, indicating that this entire corner section will continue advancing quickly over the coming days.

[00:08:56]Several crews are also working higher up on the structural brackets while others prepare new pieces below for crane lifting operations. The transformation of Spotify camp new is becoming more dramatic every day. The compression ring is expanding, facade systems are growing, and sandwich panels and lamelas are steadily progressing.

[00:09:16]Meanwhile, painting, fireproofing, concrete work, and structural assembly continue across multiple levels.

[00:09:23]Overall, the project is clearly entering one of its most transformative phases.
