Even death won't separate them! Barcelona unveil an extraordinary offer for their fans
Barcelona are taking the bond between the club and its supporters to an entirely new level — beyond life itself.
Details: According to Le Parisien, the Catalan giants have unveiled plans for a special memorial at Camp Nou, where supporters will be able to have their ashes laid to rest after their death. The project, named Memorial FC Barcelona, will feature 26,000 individual spaces for funeral urns, with the first phase expected to open in late 2027.
However, remaining close to your beloved club even after death comes at a price. Barcelona have established three different packages: a 10-year concession costs €2,490, a 25-year concession €4,990, while a 50-year arrangement will set supporters back €5,990.
On top of these amounts, families will have to pay an additional annual maintenance fee of €70. The memorial will cover approximately 1,500 square metres inside the renovated stadium.
The project also includes 9,000 commemorative plaques, available from €490. Funeral urns will be placed behind a mural celebrating the club's history, while memorial plaques will be displayed on an illuminated glass wall.
Interestingly, the initiative has already attracted considerable attention. More than 1,000 spaces have reportedly been reserved or purchased, despite the memorial not yet being open. Atlético Madrid, Betis and Espanyol have previously introduced similar facilities at their stadiums.
