Real Madrid fans are known to spend at least three to four hours on the Santiago Bernabeu tour.

Tourists in a hurry are known to finish their Real Madrid stadium tour in 90 minutes or so. 

The guided tour of Santiago Bernabeu Stadium , where an official Real Madrid CF guide takes you around, also lasts 90 minutes. However, guided tours are not highly rated.

Estadio Santiago Bernabéu: Visit Real Madrid’s stadium

The Santiago Bernabéu is the Real Madrid Club de Fútbol stadium, and it hosts the matches of one of the city’s football clubs.

Are you planning to attend an Real Madrid match? Make sure to get your Real Madrid tickets well in advance! Here’s a complete guide to do so, in case you need it. If you’re interested in the current season, check the official dates to see if any of these fits your itinerary.

Table of Contents

The history behind the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu

It was inaugurated in 1947, though major renovations have taken place throughout the years, specially in 1982, 2001, and most recently in 2022. Its current capacity is 85,500 people.

The Real Madrid CF, also known as Madrid, was founded in 1902 and it is one of the most important sport symbols of Madrid. Because of the city’s other club and main rival, the Club Atlético de Madrid, the city is basically divided in half between Madrid and Atlético fans.

Real Madrid CF supporters are popularly known as ‘Merengues’. You’ll hear them shout songs and chants as soon as you enter the premises. The atmosphere is specially impressive if this is your first time attending a football match.

Don’t miss the areas located behind the goals. The ‘Vikingos’ are always located at the fondo norte , while the ‘Ultra Sur’ are on the opposite side. Both groups always have the initiative when supporting and singing. From time to time, they organize mosaics if the match is a special occasion.

How to buy Real Madrid tickets

The easiest way to get your Real Madrid tickets is buying them online .

The purchasing process is very easy and here are the steps you should follow:

1. First, have a look at the official calendar of matches and check the dates when Real Madrid CF play home. Please bear in mind that the final date and time of the match are confirmed only a few days before.

Note that the match generally takes place on a Saturday or Sunday, although La Liga also takes place on Fridays and Mondays. It’s rare but matches can sometimes take place other days of the week due to calendar restrictions.

2. Then, choose the area of the Santiago Bernabéu where you would like to seat. Don’t worry, it’s easy looking at the seating chart.

3. Finally, once you have selected the match and the seat area, complete the purchasing process. Double check your personal details, particularly your email address to get your purchase confirmation email.

Avoid the waiting lines and book your tickets now!

How to get to the Santiago Bernabéu stadium

The stadium is located in the Chamartín neighborhood, a residential area relatively far away from Madrid’s city center.

You can get there by

• Subway catching line 10 (dark blue) and getting off at the Santiago Bernabéu station.
• Bus catching one of the following lines: 14, 27, 40, 43, 120, 147 and 150.
• Cercanías train (lines C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-7, C-8 and C-10) getting off the train at the Nuevos Ministerios station, you have the option of walking to the stadium (8-9 minutes) or taking the subway line 10 towards Santiago Bernabéu. Another possibility is to get off at the Chamartín station and take the bus (line 14 or 150) to get to the stadium.
• Taxi , though I don’t recommend it unless you have a good sense of direction, and you have some written directions to guide you along the ride.

Visit the Santiago Bernabéu stadium

The ‘Bernabéu Tour’ walks you through the most emblematic areas of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium. Visit the trophy room, the home team changing room, the press room, and the players’ tunnel. Additionally, you can access to different areas of the stadium, including the field grass.

The tour is self-guided and includes: a panoramic view, the Best Club in History room, the Sensations Room, the pitch, the presidential box, the dugouts and technical area, the players’ tunnel, the dressing rooms, the press room and the club’s official store.

As soon as you enter the premises you will feel like a true Real Madrid CF player!

On match days, tours are available until 5 hours before the beginning of the game. After that time and until 3 hours and a half before kick-off, it will only be possible to visit Best Club in History room, the Trophy Exhibition room and the panoramic view of the stadium.

Estadio Santiago Bernabeu

Club: Real Madrid CF | Opening: 1947 | Capacity: 81,044 seats

History and description

In the early parts of the 20th century, Real Madrid first played at Campo De O’Donnell, and then moved to the larger Campo de Chamartín in 1924.

In 1943, Chamartin had already become too small again, and club-president Santiago Bernabéu decided that Madrid needed a new and modern 100,000-stadium.

This new stadium got built at the same site of Campo de Chamartín. Construction began in 1945, and on the 14th of December 1947 Estadio Santiago Bernabéu officially opened with a match against Portuguese champions OS Belenenses (3-1).

The stadium was initially still called Nuevo Estadio Chamartin, but received the name of the club-president eight years later.

At that time, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu consisted of two uncovered tiers that could hold just over 75,000 spectators. Capacity was further increased to 125,000 in 1954, when one of the long sides got expanded with a third tier.

The Bernabéu was together with Camp Nou playing venue of the Euro 1964 Championships, hosting one of the two semi-finals and the final between Spain and the Soviet Union (2-1).

Towards the end of the 1970s, the stadium had already started to age, and club officials started making plans to build a new stadium in the north of the city.

However, with the perspective of the 1982 World Cup it was instead decided to renovate the Bernabéu, which included the construction of a roof over the three two-tiered stands and the installation of seats in half of the stadium. As a result, capacity was reduced to 90,800 places.

During the 1982 World Cup, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu hosted three matches in the second group stage and the final between Italy and West Germany (3-1).

In the 1990s, UEFA required the stadium to become an all-seater, which would have reduced capacity to 50,000 seats. Club president Mendoza therefore started an extensive redevelopment program that included extending the third tier over the entire stadium, the creation of corporate facilities, and four access towers in each corner of the stadium. Works started in 1992 and were completed two years later.

Estadio Santiago Bernabéu got further refurbished an upgraded between 2001 and 2006. Works most of all focused on improving corporate facilities, and were concluded in 2006 with the construction of a roof over the one remaining uncovered stand.

In its history, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu has hosted four European Cup and Champions League finals . The first final was in 1957 between Real Madrid and Fiorentina (2-0), the second in 1969 between AC Milan and Ajax (4-1), the third in 1980 between Nottingham Forest and Hamburg (1-0), and the last one in 2010 between Internazionale and Bayern Munich (2-0).

In 2012, Real Madrid presented plans to further upgrade the stadium with commercial and corporate facilities, and to increase capacity to over 90,000 seats. Four architects were asked to present designs, from which the winner was chosen later in 2013. However, the project was first put on hold due to an investigation of the European Union into the granting of illegal state aid, and later rejected by the Madrid city council.

A few years later, in 2017, revised plans were presented to upgrade the stadium with a new exterior, retractable roof, and hospitality facilities, leaving capacity the same. Works started in 2019 and were planned to be performed over a two-and-a-half year period while Real would keep playing at the stadium. However, when the Covid-19 pandemic hit in 2020 and matches were forced to be played behind closed doors, works were accelerated and Real Madrid moved their home games to Estadio Alfredo de Stefano of their reserves team.

How to get to the Bernabeu

Estadio Santiago Bernabéu is located in central Madrid on the Paseo de la Castellana, one of Madrid’s principal avenues. The stadium lies about 4 kilometres north of the Plaza de Cibeles, where the Paseo de la Castellana originates. It is a similar distance from Puerta del Sol, one of Madrid’s main squares.

The stadium is best reached by metro line 10. Stop Santiago Bernabeu lies right next to the stadium. In the centre, line 10 can be caught at Plaza de España or Tribunales, but can otherwise be reached with a transfer (e.g. line 1 from Puerta del Sol or Atocha train station).

From Atocha, Paseo del Prado, or Plaza de Cibeles one can also take bus 14 or 27 to get to the stadium. Take bus 14 in the direction of Avenida Pio XII. It passes the stadium on the Paseo La Habana. Take bus 27 in the direction of Plaza de Castilla, and get off at Plaza Lima, right in front of the stadium.

From metro station Callao in the city centre, one can take bus 147. Take the bus in the direction of Barrio del Pilar and get off at Plaza Lima.

From Puerta del Sol one can take bus 150 in the direction of Colonia Virgen del Cortijo. Again, get off at Plaza Lima.

Address: Avenida de Concha Espina 1, Madrid

Eat, drink, and sleep near the Bernabeu

Estadio Santiago Bernabéu is located on the large tree-lined Paseo de la Castellana avenue, one of Madrid’s principal arteries. The area around the stadium is a mix of mostly offices, shops, and residential buildings, but there are enough bars and coffee shops mixed in to find something to eat or drink.

The number of bars and restaurants increase while you walk south in the direction of Madrid’s centre. Most nightlife is located in the northern parts of the centre.

There are a fair few hotels near the Bernabeu. The Holiday Inn Madrid , AC Hotel Aitana , and Rafaelhoteles Orense are closest, get good reviews, but are far from cheap.

Only slightly further away are Espahotel Plaza Basílica , Hotel Gran Atlanta , Hostal Falfes , Hostal Los Ángeles , and Sunotel Amaral . They get good reviews, are all close to several metro stations, tend to be reasonably priced between €50.00 and €100.00 per night, and no further than 20 minutes walking from the Bernabeu.

Click here  for an overview of all hotels near Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. If you prefer to stay in the city centre or elsewhere, these are your options.

Real Madrid Tickets

Tickets for Real Madrid games can be bought online through the official website or Ticketmaster , or at the ticket windows (taquillas) of Estadio Santiago Bernabéu.

Tickets that are bought online can be picked up at the printing kiosks at the stadium.

Regular tickets tend to go on sale in the week before the match, though VIP tickets are available earlier. There is generally not much reason to buy a VIP ticket as Real Madrid only sell out a few high-profile matches per season and tickets for most matches are easily available if bought in advance.

For those matches that do sell out, e.g. El Clásico, the Madrid derby, and high-profile Champions League matches, you might have to revert to the secondary market. The likes of viagogo and Stubhub offer good choice and tend to be reliable, though can get expensive. Prices for regular matches tend to be fairer though or even lower than face value and can offer an alternative for those wanting to book their tickets longer in advance.

Ticket prices depend on the opponent, but typically start at €30.00 for a seat behind the goal and €40.00 for a seat at one of the sides.

Stadium tours

Real Madrid offer self-guided stadium tours, during which you follow a route through the stadium. The route includes the dugouts, presidential box, press room, changing rooms, players’ tunnel and trophy room, and ends in the club shop.

The stadium is opened Mondays to Saturdays from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm, and Sundays and public holidays from 10:30 am to 6:30 am. On matchdays the tour is open until 5 hours before kickoff (though with limited access).

No reservations are required, though the tour can be booked online . Entrance costs €25.00 with further premium options available.

Recently attended the Madrid derby and was sat in the top tier of the sur stand ( literally the last row of the top tier). As a previous post has stated the stands go up rather than back so the view is excellent. Found the atmosphere good but quite relaxed compared to the big British derbies, the stadium is superb but is starting to look a bit dated and the upcoming renovation is needed. A must if you are in Madrid and can get a ticket.G

I have just read your stadium review and, as a local Real Madrid fan, I must say it’s very complete (congratulations!). However, there is some recent information I’d like to let you notice so that you might be able to correct them and prevent further users be misinformed about the current and future condition of the stadium.

The most notable point which lacks updating is on the renovation project. Though it was blocked before by the city council and the European Union, there has been a lot of bureaucratic movement these last years and now only the go-ahead from the city council is needed to start renovating the stadium (which, giving how well have recently been the relations between the club and the city council, is pretty much granted). That last step is said to be done in just a matter of weeks or months so that construction work would start in summer 2018 to be finally finished in mid-2020. Once we are authorized to renovate the Bernabéu and manage to finish the renovation, we could be talking about one of the best stadiums in the world (if not the best).

Will the renovation interrupt football-related activity in the stadium? Of course not: football-inhibiting work will be done in winter and summer breaks so that the stadium will be always ready to host matches except for those periods of time. Apart from that, the renovation will not only affect the stadium: but the Esquina del Bernabéu shopping center will be completely demolished to build a new 6000 Sq Plaza de los Sagrados Corazones and another green zone will be opened between the stadium and the Paseo de La Castellana.

That is pretty much everything that was needed to say. With such a renovation, the stadium will be an arhitectural jewel as well as a Mecca for football fans. As a recommendation to improve the information provided in the page, I’d like to suggest adding these points to the page: design description, capacity distribution and locals’ and fans’ opinions on the stadium.

That’s all from me. I hope I have provided good and useful information to the users. Thanks for reading!

AoD, musician and pure-blooded madridista

Best stadium in the world. Ive seen Madrid play on 6 separate ocassions. perfect size of 85,000 and so close to the pitch gives it an incredible enclosed sensation. The tour is another incredible experience. Cant wait to see the new stadium. Would have to be mindblowing as it is already an incredible stadium.

I went to watch Real again, this time against Malaga. Unfortunately it finished 0-0. Bought my ticket at one of the ticket windows before the game. It is worth mentioning that free match day programmes are available from inside the stadium. The support was not the best. The stadium itself is beautiful and well worth visiting.

The most beautiful stadium i have been to. Great location. I went to watch Real against Ajax in Champions League. Bought the ticket at the ground for 35 Euros. It is massive and even if you are sat at the very top you still manage to see everything as the upper tiers go up rather than up and back. The support from Real fans was good, but Ajax fans were amazing! Great place to go.

I was there on 14/03/2012 CL game against CSKA Moscow the game wasn’t that exiting but it is the most beautiful stadion in the world same infrastructure like AC Milan. Just lik twin stadions i also was in Milan for stadion tour also beautiful. I defenetly go back this season to Real and perhaps watching a game of ACMilan also.

You do visit the home dressing room and the freedom of the tour adds to the excitement, wonderful stadium

I agree its a wonderful stadium and right in the city centre. In some ways a bit like St James Park in Newcastle except it seats 80,000 plus and the climate’s better!!! watched Real come back to win against Espanyol and atmosphere was electric – match ended around 11.30pm then on to a few bars and back to hotel in time for breakfast.

Fantastic stadium and atmosphere. I saw RM v Espanyol and as it was January they had heaters warming the fans from the stand above, so although it was cold I had to shed some layers.

The Santiago Bernabeu is a fantastic stadium to visit when you are in Madrid! I watched Real Madrid play against Real Zaragoza at the Bernabeu last year (2011) and they lost 3-2 but still the experience of watching Real Madrid was amazing and fantastic! I loved the singing from the Ultras Sur end! I really recommend visiting the Bernabeu if you are in Madrid because it is a massive stadium and it’s amazing! I did the stadium tour aswell on the day I was leaving Madrid! I am going back to Madrid and the Bernabeu this year (2012) to watch another Real Madrid match and they play against Sporting de Gijon this time! I hope they win this time and not lose!

Very pleasant tour but if you don’t have a guide, there is no-one you can ask questions to. You do not go into the home team changing room. You go up the tunnel to get there and so do not have the experience of going down the tunnel to enter the stadium in the style of the players. Also, you cannot sit on the Real Madrid manager’s seat. In these respects, the tour at Manchester United is much better. I had an excellent tour guide, Marianne.

Santiago Bernabeu's Capacity

Inside santiago bernabeu stadium, santiago bernabeu renovation.

What’s the maximum capacity at the ‘new’ Santiago Bernabéu?

Real madrid’s home has been undergoing a renovation process to give fans a better experience and make the bernabéu a spectacular venue..

Real Madrid has been refining an ambitious and extensive project to remodel its stadium. The Santiago Bernabéu is one of the most iconic venues in world football, and Florentino Pérez is well aware of this. For over a decade, the president of the club has considered making significant improvements to elevate the stadium to another level.

The Santiago Bernabéu has undergone multiple renovations since replacing the Estadio Chamartín, aiming to embrace modernity and reflect the grandeur of the club. The Bernabéu stands as the fortress of Los Blancos and has been witness to some of the most epic feats of Madrid. In Florentino’s new project, one of the main objectives is precisely to highlight both the majesty of the club’s history and the building itself.

🏟️ BE - LLE - ZA ¡Perspectiva de la grandeza del nuevo Bernabéu desde las alturas! 🚁✨ pic.twitter.com/Ppm0W4R80M — nuevobernabeu (@nuevobernabeu) February 20, 2024

In this regard, one of the most promising changes is the façade, which looks set to be one of the most impressive and represents the most radical transformation in appearance. The new steel cover will allow for the projection of images to the outside world. Inside, the turf and retractable roof are the two standout changes, designed with the aim of transforming it into a multidisciplinary venue. Additionally, renovations to the VIP boxes and seat changes in the stands are underway.

New capacity of the Bernabéu

Due to these modifications, the stadium’s capacity will also be altered . Currently accommodating 81,000 spectators, according to the latest updates shared by Pérez regarding the project, there will be an expansion of more than three thousand seats, bringing the capacity closer to 85,000.

The New Bernabéu: a multi-million dollar investment

In late November 2023, Real Madrid announced an increase in the cost of the remodelling works, prompting the board of directors to agree to seek a loan of €370 million (c.$395 m). With this loan, the total cost of the property rose to a grand total of €1.17 billion (c.$1.25 b).

During this announcement, Florentino Pérez asserted that the new stadium would mark a new beginning in the club’s history: “The new Bernabéu will change the history of Real Madrid. It is a dream that will shape our destiny,” he proudly claimed.

Ilia Topuria reveals when UFC Spain will take place at the Bernabeu and its strange schedule

'El Matador' is in Madrid and has revealed several details ahead of the UFC landing in the European country.

Ilia Topuria is currently in Madrid, Spain, where he made a trip that included a visit to the Mutua Madrid Open tennis tournament.

During his time there, he had the opportunity to meet with Carlos Alcaraz , the defending champion of the Madrid Masters 1000.

The pair spent some time chatting and playing tennis, and 'El Matador' even imparted some fighting techniques to the third-ranked ATP player inside an octagon set up at the Caja Magica.

What did he reveal about UFC Madrid?

While focusing on tennis, the featherweight champion is also looking ahead to his future in the fighting world.

Various challenges are emerging, with Brian Ortega as a potential opponent, though the idea of facing Max Holloway , the BMF belt holder, is particularly appealing.

Ilia is especially motivated by the prospect of this fight, envisioning defending his title in Spain, specifically at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Although this plan is not feasible for September or October, when Topuria plans to return to action, he has already set a date for the UFC's arrival in Spain.

"We are aiming for the first quarter of next year. It's likely UFC Spain will take place at the Santiago Bernabeu," he added.

"When I was there for the kick-off, I couldn't help but imagine and visualize the moment I would enter the octagon in such a legendary stadium."

In a conversation with El Espanol, Ilia expanded on his plans.

"It will be a pay-per-view event and will need to be scheduled late. The main fight will likely happen around four or five in the morning. It will be a nighttime affair."

Organizing a nighttime event poses logistical challenges, particularly for pay-per-view broadcasts, which is why UFC Spain's plans are postponed. Nonetheless, it will become a reality in 2025.

The Santiago Bernabéu unveils its spectacular 360 degree video scoreboard

The  Santiago Bernabéu  will premiere its spectacular 360 degree video scoreboard at the Clásico.
