The remodelling of the Cartuja stadium, designed by Cruz y Ortiz Arquitectos, will increase its capacity by 12,442 seats, reaching a total of 71,374 spectators.
The project includes the elimination of the athletics track, the depression of the playing field and the construction of new stands.
In this first phase, accessibility will be improved and new spectator areas, toilets and services will be provided. For later phases, work will be carried out on the urbanisation of the exterior area, the façade, the refurbishment and enlargement of the VIP areas, as well as the digitalisation of the facilities. The works, which will begin in mid-July this year, will enable the stadium to meet the UEFA and FIFA standards required for the 2030 World Cup to be held in Spain, Portugal and Morocco.
With the expansion, the capacity of the Cartuja stadium will rise from fifth to third place nationally in terms of conditioning and only surpassed by the Nou Camp and the Santiago Bernabeu and ahead of the Cívitas Metropolitano (Atlético de Madrid) and the Benito Villamarín (Real Betis).
The Cartuja stadium, also built by Cruz y Ortiz Arquitectos, was inaugurated on 5 May 1999 for that year’s World Athletics Championships. Its original design included an athletics track and had an initial capacity of 57,619 spectators. In addition to hosting the World Championships, it has hosted numerous sporting and non-sporting events throughout its 25-year history.
