In early 2020, the world-famous home of Manchester United became the first in a new line of LEGO® sets inspired by iconic football grounds. Old Trafford was joined by Barcelona’s Nou Camp last year and they will soon be joined by the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, home to Real Madrid. This brick-built replica of the Spanish sports ground is based on the original design of the ground and is packed with details. These include the pitch with the famous grass pattern, the venue’s iconic four towers, the goals, tunnel, dugout and scoreboard. The LEGO Real Madrid Santiago Bernabéu stadium launches on March 1st, learn more below.

The spectacular home of Real Madrid Club de Fútbol can now be built in LEGO® brick form as the ultimate display piece for fans
17th February 2022: Today the LEGO Group reveals a stunning homage to one of the most beloved football teams in the world — the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, a faithful replica of the home of Real Madrid.
The LEGO® Real Madrid – Santiago Bernabéu Stadium set coincides with the club’s 120th anniversary and the 75th anniversary of the iconic grounds. The impressive set features over 5,800 pieces and has been designed to be the ultimate display piece for Real Madrid C.F. and LEGO fans — and to symbolise the spectacular pride felt by fans watching a match take place at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium.
This interactive and immersive set features many specialised details which make it an accurate replica of the stadium from both up-close and afar. A lift-off roof and the ability to open up the model by “splitting” it in half, encourages users to engage with the many details of the set — from the pitch with the famous grass pattern, the venue’s iconic four towers, the goals, tunnel, dugout, scoreboard, banners, stickers, stairwells, iconic Real Madrid C.F. branding, and more.
Milan Madge, Designer at the LEGO Group commented: “Real Madrid is one of the most remarkable football clubs in history — which is why recreating the Santiago Bernabéu stadium in LEGO brick form was such an incredibly rewarding experience. Authenticity and sense of scale are key factors in this recreation, so that builders can truly feel the atmosphere of this dazzling and vast stadium. This set allows builders to bring the much-loved homebase of Real Madrid into their own home for years to come.”
