For a few minutes, the entire world turned their eyes to this spot and studied. This year, thousands of tourists landed in the Aeroport Barcelone so as to feel this phenomenal atmosphere. Later on during the olympic games, it was actually the stage for some of the athletic records achieved that year.
The prevailing Olympic Stadium is essentially a redesigned version of a previous one that was found at the site since 1929. It was given new framework and hi-tech clobber, and its seating capacity was increased to accommodate up to 56,000 people ( with the addition of professional stands the seating capacity can reach up to 77,000 ). This resulted in the UEGA recognising the facility as a five-star stadium.
similar to the Palau Sant Jordi, the Olympic Stadium also hosts a spread of events, both athletic and social. Nowadays, one of the 2 Catalonian teams that play in the first division of the Spanish League, the RCD Espanyol, holds football matches at the stadium.
The artists and designers involved in the design of the stadium make it so very much more than a mere sports facility. The cover was mostly recovered from the prior stadium and done by Pere Domnech i Roure. The front section was chiseled by Vicen Navarro, and the statues that decorate the main entrance were made by Pau Gargallo.
currently the Olympic Stadium of Montjuc, whose official title is the Llus Companys Olympic Stadium of Montjuc, is a modern stadium in full use which is thought of as a 5 star stadium by the Union of european football Associations ( UEFA ). Just two other stadiums in Spain have this ranking : Vicente Caldern and Camp Nou, the official stadium of the FC Barcelona which draws every year thousands of travellers who make a long Voyage Barcelone so as to see it.
