Here’s the latest around Estadio de La Cartuja, Sevilla:
- The stadium underwent a major renovation in time for the Copa del Rey final in April 2025, expanding capacity and modernizing facilities. Reports at the time noted capacity increasing to around 75,000 seats and the removal of the athletics track to bring fans closer to the pitch.[2][3]
- The project positioned La Cartuja as a flagship venue in Spain, with discussions about using it as a future host for major matches and events, including possible use during Spain’s World Cup cycle.[4][2]
- In 2025 coverage, the venue was described as moving from a controversial, “ghost stadium” status toward a prominent sporting landmark, highlighted by its refreshed pitch and seating, and its role in Betis’ regional plans while Benito Villamarín undergoes redevelopment.[3][2]
