The new Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is expected to be an architectural masterpiece and one of the most spectacular stadiums in the world.
Its wraparound outer shell and its retractable roof will be its most visible hallmarks, but the best kept secret is in the ground.
A project that is already underway is to install a new retractable field to transform the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium into a multifunctional stadium, which can be used for other events, especially concerts.
To achieve this long-term plan, it is essential to install a field that can be removed in just a few minutes.
Since the new Real Madrid headquarters were designed, different projects were considered to carry out this idea.
Removing all the grass from the stadium, as in the case of the VELTINS-Arena in Schalke, was not a feasible option since the Bernabéu is located in the heart of the capital and there is no place to remove the entire playing field.
So, the option chosen was to remove the grass in the parts that move by rails and lodge them somewhere inside the stadium.
Soon
This complex and ambitious construction work may continue due to the fact that Real Madrid will play the rest of the season at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.
A greenhouse cave will house the seven to eight playing surface plates that will move to one side and from there will descend one on top of the other to maintain ideal maintenance conditions.
The aforementioned project is quite ambitious, since it will be necessary to carry out a kind of greenhouse construction that will create the ideal conditions of humidity and light so that the lawn can lodge underground without problems.
The works must be carried out under the stadium and there are different factors that complicate it, since damage to other structures in the city that pass under the stadium must be avoided.
Keeping the Bernabéu’s lawn in good condition is not an easy task due to the characteristics of the stadium, which is particularly high and closed and does not allow much light to reach the field.
Every year, in fact, it is changed for the new season, but with this system the maintenance of the playing field will be even less expensive in the long term.
The big problem that many clubs face when giving up their concert stadiums is undoubtedly the consequences on the pitch, which do not resist the influx of the public and, therefore, the events take place only at the end of the season .
With this formula, Real Madrid will be able to organize events during the season without suffering the grass.
The Tottenham Hotspur stadium and the Schalke field already use this system, but unlike Real Madrid, both take the grass from their facilities, while Los Blancos will host it within the facilities.
The Spurs use a plate and rail system very similar to the one that will be installed at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, while the Germans move around the field in approximately 12 hours.
Boost in business
Real Madrid maintains that the new Bernabéu will become the club’s greatest revenue asset.
For years, almost all efforts have been focused on exploiting his land to give the club a huge financial boost.
The new project was essential to fulfill a new philosophy of what a multipurpose soccer field should be, which allows having a stadium open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
