Is the Bernabeu finished?

The Bernabeu is expected to be finished in December 2023, following renovations made to the ground.

On a self-guided tour, the Bernabeu Tour audio guide, available in ten languages, helps you through. 

Another difference is the timing of your visit – self-guided tickets are available all day, while guided tours are available only four times a day. 

The Guided Bernabeu Tour starts at 10 am or 12 pm when it operates.

Real Madrid and Microsoft have joined to create the Bernabeu tour’s audio guide.

It incorporates the most advanced technological features to make your visit to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium and the Real Madrid Museum a fun experience. 

The interactive audio guide allows visitors to enjoy a personalized experience by choosing one of the three tours available based on their preference. 

Santiago Bernabéu is located in central Madrid on the Paseo de la Castellana, one of Madrid’s principal avenues.

Address: Av. de Concha Espina 1, 28036 Madrid. Get Directions .

On weekdays, Madrid’s buses start at 6 am and continue till 11.30 pm with a frequency of 4 to 15 minutes (which depends on the line and the time of day). 

On weekends and public holidays, buses start at 7 am and return to the shed at 11 pm.

The Lima-Santiago Bernabéu (Bus No: 14, 43, 120, 150) is just a minute away from the attraction.

Note: If you have booked a hop-on-hop-off Madrid tour bus , you can get off at Stop 7 (Santiago Bernabéu) of Route 2 (Modern Madrid).

The Santiago Bernabéu Station (Services: 10) is just a few steps from the Stadium. 

If you can’t directly board Line 10, you can first get to either Plaza de España or Tribunal Station , both of which fall on the Line 10 route. 

If you get to the Real Madrid Stadium outside Madrid City, you can take a train to Nuevos Ministerios (Trains: C1, C2, C3, C4, C4a, C4b, C7, C10, REGIONAL).

Nuevos Ministerios train station is 800 meters (half a mile) from the Bernabeu Tour entrance, and you can walk the distance in about 10-12 minutes. 

For timings and tickets, check out Renfe , the company that manages trains in Spain.

All Real Madrid stadium tour participants must enter from the Tower B entrance on Concha Espina Avenue.

Tower B is where the Paseo de la Castellana meets Calle Concha Espina. Get Directions

If you have booked your Santiago Bernabeu tickets online, you can show them on your mobile at the Tower B entrance and walk in. 

If you don’t have a ticket, purchase one from Box Office 3, beside Gate 34 at Tower B.

However, we recommend booking in advance for two reasons:

• You get to avoid long lines at the ticket counters
• Online tickets are 3 Euros cheaper than at the venue

Bernabeu tour hours

From Monday to Saturday, the Bernabeu tour at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium starts at 9.30 am and closes at 7 pm. 

On Sundays and holidays, the Tour of the World’s best soccer stadium and Museum opens at 10 am and goes on till 6.30 pm. 

The last entry is 90 minutes before closure.

The Santiago Bernabeu tour is open throughout the year, except for 25 December and 1 January. 

On the day of the match, you can join Tour del Bernabeu for up to 5 hours before the game starts. 

The changing rooms are closed from the day before at 1 pm, so you can’t visit the team dressing room on match days. 

Once the changing room closes, you can only visit the ‘Best Club in History’ and the ‘Sensations’ rooms and enjoy the Stadium’s panoramic view.

When it is four hours to go for the match, all Bernabeu tour participants are requested to leave. 

The best time to visit Bernabeu Stadium for the Real Madrid Stadium and Museum tour is as soon as they open at 9.30 am.

Large group tours start arriving around 11 am, crowding the experience.

Santiago Bernabeu also receives many visitors from schools around Spain and Europe, all of whom tend to arrive at the same time.

The dressing rooms are closed from 1 pm, the day before a matchday. When you start early, you see these rooms even if the next day were a match day. 

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

That’s because fans spend a lot of time taking official pictures ‘with’ the players, sitting in the club seats on the field to soak in the experience, spending time in the shop looking at souvenirs, etc. 

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.

Come get to know one of the most famous staidum in the world: Santiago Bernabeu Stadium

Football is the most popular sport in Spain. Here we also have the best football clubs in the world: FC Barcelona, FC Real Madrid, FC Atletico Madrid…

In this week’s post of The Touring Pandas, we are going to bring you to the amazing Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, which belongs to one of the greatest clubs in Europe, FC Real Madrid! The club opens its doors 363 days a year for people to explore its historic stadium, an absolute must on your trip to Spain.

Whether you are a fan of Real Madrid or not, visiting this stadium will be the most unforgettable experience ever in your life! Our guide will also help you spend a better time in this glorious temple of football! What are you waiting for? Let’s go!

History of the stadium

Santiago Bernabeu stadium is home to the most successful and sought after team in the world, and arguably the greatest football club to have ever played the sport, FC Real Madrid. This stadium is one of the most prestigious and well-known stadiums in the footballing and sporting world, and it has witnessed some of the greatest moments in modern football.

In the early parts of the 20th century, Real Madrid first played at Campo De O’Donnell and the larger Campo de Chamartín. In 1945, a new stadium got built at the same site of Campo de Chamartín. Construction began in 1945, and on the 14th of December 1947 it was officially opened with the name Nuevo Estadio Chamartin. But eight years later, it was named after the legendary Madrid manager, who presided over the club from 1943 to 1978.

At that time, Santiago Bernabéu stadium consisted of two uncovered tiers that could hold just over 75,000 spectators. Capacity was further increased in 1954, when one of the long sides got expanded with a third tier. After several decades with couple times of renovation and extension, Santiago Bernabéu stadium got further refurbished an upgraded in the early 21st century.

Nowadays, with many accesible commercial and corporate facilities and a seating capacity of over 90000, the Santiago Bernabeu is the 14th largest football stadium in the world and 4th largest in Europe. The stadium also has 245 VIP boxes.

Why take a stadium tour?

Real Madrid is one of the most successful clubs in the world in terms of the number of trophies and competitions won. They are the only club to win the Champions League 3-years in a row, a feat that will surely stand for centuries. Many of the world’s greatest football players including Zidane, Ronaldo, Beckham, Kaká, Cristiano (the list goes on and on) have had the pleasure of calling the Santiago Bernabeu stadium their “home”. For a football fan, and particularly a Real Madrid fan, going for a tour of the Santiago Bernabeu is like going on a tour of the Vatican, for a devout christian.

The experience is not just for football fans! It welcomes over 1 million enthusiastic fans every year. The stadium tour is a highly-immersive experience which takes you to the most intimate areas of the ground and gives you access to places which are otherwise only permitted to players and staff. You get a chance to marvel at the ever-growing trophy room and prize cabinet of the best club in the history of the game.

Important infomation of the tour

Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is located in central Madrid on the Paseo de la Castellana. It is best reached by  metro  line 10. Stop Santiago Bernabeu lies right next to the stadium. This is the easiest and most convenient way of reaching the stadium from every corner of the city.

If you’re coming to the stadium via the public bus, you can take the following lines – 14, 27 40, 43, 120, 126, 147 and 150 and the stop you should get off is Plaza Lima. The closest local train(Cercania) station to the Bernabeu is Nuevos Ministerios. From here, it is a short 7 minute walk to the stadium.

The stadium is opened every Mondays to Saturdays from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm, and Sundays and public holidays from 10:30 am to 6:30 am (closed on December 25th and January 1st). On match days the tour is open until 5 hours before kickoff (note, there will be no access to dressing rooms on match days).

Tour tickets(not the game tickets) can be purchased at the official website or at site. No reservations are required. Entrance costs €25.00 with further premium options available; €18 for children under 14 and children aged 0 to 4 get in free. The entire stadium tour takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete, however you are welcome to stay for as long as you like.

What to expect in the stadium tour?

The tour is self-guided, during which you follow a route through the stadium. You get a behind the scenes look at Real Madrid and a chance to relive and experience more than a century’s worth of the club’s past, present and future. The tour starts off outstandingly with a panoramic view of the Bernabeu from the highest point of the stadium. Almost touching the sky, this is the absolute best spot to get a view of the entire arena.

Next, head to the club rooms, where you will be taken on an interactive, audiovisual journey of the history of the great club. These include: the trophy room, the pitch, the presidential box, the dressing rooms, press room, tunnels, benches and coach area and merchandise store.

Eat, drink, and sleep near the Bernabeu

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.

On Soccer With Rory Smith

Is soccer’s model club actually … real madrid.

The club is strutting into a future different from the one envisioned by its president, Florentino Pérez. But its prospects are as bright as ever.

By Rory Smith

Florentino Pérez had a contented smile on his face, and with good reason. He had just watched Spain and Brazil share a thrilling, freewheeling draw at the stadium he has expensively, lavishly, reappointed. Now, Pérez, Real Madrid’s all-powerful president, found himself in a whitewashed tunnel, presented — completely by chance, obviously — with his favorite kind of photo opportunity.

To one side stood Vinícius Júnior, Real Madrid’s standard-bearer and main event, dutifully introducing the man who pays his wages to his Brazil teammates. A little further along the corridor, hurrying to pay obeisance, was Rodrygo, another of Pérez’s employees.

But Pérez’s focus was on Endrick, the 17-year-old star-in-waiting who will complete his long-awaited move to the Santiago Bernabéu this summer. To say the two of them shared a conversation would be pushing it: In footage of their brief meeting , Endrick does not appear to speak. After a handshake, Pérez utters only one line, but it is perfect. “We’re waiting for you here,” he said.

Real Madrid has had Endrick lined up for some time: The club announced that it had reached an agreement to sign him from Palmeiras three days before the final of the 2022 World Cup. He would, as FIFA’s rules dictate, remain in Brazil, with the club that has sculpted him into the most coveted prospect in world soccer, until he turns 18 this July.

That kind of long-term planning feels just a little out of step with Real Madrid’s traditional modus operandi. The club identifies, correctly, as a titan, and — under Pérez’s stewardship, in particular — it has taken great pride in living the values associated with the classical definition of that term: impetuous, impulsive, irascible.

It fires coaches for failing to win the Champions League , signs players on the back of a stellar World Cup and airs a regular feature on its in-house television channel that has been interpreted as a pre-emptive attempt to influence and/or intimidate referees. Real Madrid has always been the sort of place that eats its own sons .

All of that remains hard-wired into the club’s fibers. In the past three years, Pérez has not only helped to concoct a Super League that was intended to reshape world soccer more to his liking, but defended it on a gaudy late-night talk show — a little like going on “Judge Judy” to announce the abolition of the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council — and then continued to promote it even after it was savaged by, well, just about everyone else.

But there is little question that there is something different about the current incarnation of Real Madrid. The club has always regarded itself as being the biggest, most powerful, most glamorous, most famous team not just in soccer, but in sports as a whole. Now, it is possible to make the case that it should be regarded as the best run, too.

Its mildly absurd record in the Champions League bears that out. In the last decade, it has won the tournament the club cherishes most five times. Should Carlo Ancelotti’s team fall to Manchester City over the next two weeks, it would mark only the third time since 2010 that Real Madrid has not reached at least the semifinals of Europe’s showpiece competition.

A better gauge, though, is what will happen this summer. As well as Endrick, already anointed as the finest player of soccer’s new generation, Real Madrid is expected (at last) to sign Kylian Mbappé, the standout of the current one. They should be joined, too, by Alphonso Davies, the Bayern Munich and Canada left back.

All three deals showcase how adroitly Real Madrid now navigates the transfer market. Endrick is another special from Juni Calafat, the club’s recruitment chief, who has long been tasked with bringing the brightest prospects from around the world — and from South America in particular — to Madrid.

Mbappé has been a case study in patience, with Real Madrid by turns seducing the player and biding its time, slowly and carefully positioning itself as his only realistic route out of Paris St.-Germain, waiting until the economic conditions were right to sign a player currently employed by a club that is in effect an arm of a nation state.

Davies, too, is a masterpiece of patience: Real Madrid will present Bayern Munich with the choice of losing him for a fee this summer, or for nothing when his contract expires in 2025. Bayern will resent it, of course. But it is familiar enough with that sort of strong-arm method that it might, privately, applaud just a little, too.

It would not be the first club to admire — however begrudgingly — how well Real Madrid has adapted to a financial landscape that, as the Super League project demonstrated, seemed to have shifted against Europe’s old aristocrats.

Real Madrid does not have the money, for example, to bully Premier League teams into selling players, and so instead it signed Antonio Rüdiger from Chelsea on a free transfer. It retains an impressively productive academy — according to the analysis firm CIES, 97 of its graduates are playing professionally in Europe — but has also moved quickly to gobble up players like Eduardo Camavinga, Jude Bellingham and Aurelién Tchouaméni before they fall into English clutches.

The result is a club that, almost alone among the grand old teams of the continent, can look to the future with relish. Barcelona has mortgaged many tomorrows to pay for the sins of yesterday. Bayern Munich is about to hire its fourth coach in three years. Juventus is still reeling from the mass resignation of its board in 2022 amid allegations of fraudulent accounting.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, should next season be able to name a midfield of Camavinga, Tchouaméni and Bellingham, and a forward line of Rodrygo, Vinícius and Endrick. Quite where Federico Valverde fits in is anyone’s guess. It certainly does not feel like the club’s destiny rests on whatever Mbappé decides to do.

It may, in many ways, remain an old-fashioned club, run as a personal fief by an omnipotent president. It does not pretend to be as data-driven, as avowedly modern, as Manchester City or Liverpool or Brighton, and it most definitely does not, at any point, feel any need whatsoever to tell anyone how clever it is.

But it is difficult to escape the impression that of all the game’s traditional elite, Real Madrid is now the one that needs a Super League the least. It is true that this is not the reality Florentino Pérez hoped to occupy in the spring of 2024. He wanted it to change, irrevocably, to suit his club. The converse, though, seems to have worked just as well. He has his modern stadium. He has his cluster of stars. The world remains, as it always was, much to Real Madrid’s liking.

Emma Hayes and the Last Word

The end, for Emma Hayes, is in sight. Next weekend, her Chelsea team will take on Manchester United in the semifinal of the F.A. Cup. A few days later, it has a Champions League semifinal with Barcelona to contemplate. There are five games left in England’s Women’s Super League; if Chelsea wins them all, Hayes may depart for her new job, as coach of the United States, with a valedictory championship.

One, two or three of those trophies would be a fitting way for Hayes, the W.S.L.’s greatest-ever coach, to wave goodbye to a league she has done much to build. Over the last few weeks, though, the 47-year-old Hayes’s farewell tour has taken on a decidedly, but unexpectedly, contentious aspect.

First, she suggested that — from a coaching point of view — it might be less than ideal for teammates to be romantic partners. She quickly rowed back from those comments after it appeared they had stoked resentment both inside and outside her squad.

Then, last week, she shoved Jonas Eidevall , her Arsenal counterpart, and then accused him of exhibiting “ male aggression ” in confronting a Chelsea player during the Blues’ defeat in the Women’s League Cup final. There, a retraction — or even a clarification — seems less forthcoming, something that may be explained by the fact that Hayes is not the first coach to find Eidevall’s touchline demeanor a little abrasive.

Hayes is habitually frank. She is eloquent and unafraid in equal measure. That is, in part, what has allowed her to develop a profile beyond women’s soccer. In these past few weeks, though, she has exhibited an openness that borders on straight-shooting. The overriding impression is that she does not want to leave England without setting a few things straight.

If We’re Taking Ideas From America

Curious to note, this week, that the idea of a luxury tax is being floated by certain Premier League teams as a more palatable alternative to all these infernal points deductions. Well, that is how it is being dressed up, anyway: What is actually happening is that some of the league’s clubs are trying to find a method, effectively, to abolish financial regulation.

This is an increasingly popular stance, because the Premier League has allowed the idea that cost controls are in some way “unfair” to fester. It is, though, a disingenuous one.

Those clubs who want to allow the market to run riot do not want to level the playing field. They want, instead, to take one unpopular elite and replace it with another. The primary difference, of course, would be that this new one includes and favors them. Nobody is thinking in the slightest about collective fairness.

Still, the idea is out there, so let’s debunk it. A luxury tax has benefits in American sports. It would not work in England, partly because there is no salary cap, and partly because some of the teams are owned by nation states, making the idea of a financial penalty pretty laughable. They would pay it and go on their merry way, driving other clubs to the wall as they do.

If you want a truly “fair” Premier League, you need more financial regulation, not less. And, as discussed a little while ago, if you are to take inspiration from the U.S., the best place to start would be with a commissioner, complete with both office and powers, who can enforce those rules in real time.

Just after a hard-fought victory against Mallorca which drew him level with Zinedine Zidane as the Real Madrid coach with the second-most wins in La Liga (131), Carlo Ancelotti summed up the maelstrom in which his team is living.

“Every game is a final,” he said.

You can understand what he meant. As if the two Champions League quarter-final ties with Manchester City were not onerous enough, Ancelotti’s side also had to negotiate this difficult visit to Mallorca and then – just to cap it off – the Clasico against Barcelona next Sunday.

In those circumstances, no wonder Ancelotti was thrilled with his side’s efforts in Mallorca.

“Was it hard for me to motivate the players not to think about City? No, we know where we are,” explained Ancelotti. “Having this advantage (eight points over Barcelona) before the Clasico was very important. I’m very happy, because winning here is always complicated.”

The hero on this occasion was unexpected: Aurelien Tchouameni . The French international generally likes to do his work quietly, away from the spotlight, but he has been integral to Real Madrid’s success this season and on Saturday he had his taste of the glory.

His side needed him. Tchouameni was one of the few players to emerge from a drab first half with credit for Real Madrid, who didn’t even manage a shot on target.

Perhaps they were weighed down by Ancelotti’s rotations. The coach had rested Dani Carvajal , Toni Kroos , Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo , opting instead for Lucas Vazquez , Luka Modric , Brahim Diaz and Joselu — all with Wednesday’s second leg in Manchester in mind.

Tchouameni, who has clocked up the seventh-most minutes this season with 2,469, was not given the day off for two good reasons. First, because he has become a starter (last season, he ranked 13th at Real Madrid for minutes played, with 2,840) and, second, because he will miss the game at City due to suspension.

Javier Aguirre, Mallorca’s coach, predicted Tchouameni’s involvement. “When he received the yellow card in the Champions League , we knew that he would play today, and we assumed that he would play as a pivot,” he said.

His reading was correct. Tchouameni was taken out of defence — an area in which he does not feel comfortable — with Ancelotti seeking a tall midfield pivot to contest aerial duels with Mallorca’s Vedat Muriqi .

Tchouameni did not let Ancelotti down, contributing two tackles, four clearances and winning three aerial duels, countering what is surely Mallorca’s greatest strength. But he was far more than just a destroyer: he had 94 touches against Mallorca — the second most of any Real Madrid player, behind only Luka Modric (114) — and never tired as he helped his side close out a precious win.

Not only that, he also delivered the decisive goal just after half-time. Tchouameni took three touches, all with his right foot, to control, get the ball out from his feet and shoot from 30 yards. There was some fortune in the ball flicking off Manu Morlanes , who had missed one of the penalties that prevented Mallorca from winning the Copa del Rey against Athletic Club last week, but Tchouameni had earned his luck.

“I know I can shoot and today I was able to score,” he told Real Madrid TV. “The power of the shot? It’s quality and training, where I work on it a lot, I did it yesterday.”

No wonder Tchouameni ended the afternoon exhausted, staying on the pitch for a few seconds in the last minute of the match, holding his hands to his ankles. “He played very well, it was in his favourite position and he has a lot of presence there,” Ancelotti acknowledged.

There was a sour side to Tchouameni’s day, however. As Real Madrid’s players celebrated his goal in the corner by the Mallorca fans, one was seen on television footage making a monkey gesture. It was not the first time such an incident has occurred at Mallorca: in February 2023, a home fan also racially abused Vinicius Junior.

La Liga responded on Sunday with a brief statement: “In sport, there is no place for racist or hateful acts. La Liga firmly condemns any gesture of racism and will continue working to eradicate these intolerable behaviours from our sport.”

✋🛑 En el deporte no hay lugar para actos racistas o de odio. LALIGA condena firmemente cualquier gesto de racismo y seguirá trabajando hasta erradicar estos comportamientos intolerables de nuestro deporte. #LALIGAVSRacismo https://t.co/Tfwy8M5pWK — LALIGA Corporativo (@LaLigaCorp) April 14, 2024

An object was also thrown onto the pitch during the celebrations and while some of the visiting players tried to hide it in order to downplay its significance, the referee Jose Maria Sanchez Martinez was aware of it.

Ultimately, these incidents did not ruin Real Madrid’s afternoon – or Tchouameni’s. The only frustration is that he will not be able to build on this performance at the Etihad Stadium, where Nacho Fernandez is likely to take his place.

Tchouameni is an important loss, no doubt. For his versatility, his dedication and his calm – especially given what he saw in Mallorca.
