Festive day at Camp Nou

Vanessa Forns

Voting day at Camp Nou is not just all about going to the poll and putting an x next to a candidate’s name as the club has laid on a number of exciting activities create a festival atmosphere.

Family day

Since the polls opened at 09:00 the number of people increased to such an amount that queues began to form to gain access to the events that had been organised. With the focus being on the family, voters brought their children and many were entertained by the music being played and the number of Barça shirts was uncountable.

Young ones

The youngest were the most engaged as they played in the workshops that created key rings and chapas while many had their faces painted before going on the giant inflatables. A huge mural was also painted with Barça Toons.

Queueing up

Many of the activities were busy, but by far the most popular events were the chance to go on the Barça team bus that takes the players to the airport and to some away games and the new Camp Nou Experience, that includes a visit to the refurbished museum and a tour of the stadium.

Other sports

The other Barça sports teams were also present as fans were given the chance to try their hand at roller hockey, handball and basketball.
