RCD Espanyol has unveiled two new premium hospitality concepts at the RCDE Stadium ahead of the 2026/27 season, continuing the club's strategy of positioning its venue as a destination for business networking, corporate entertainment and high-end matchday experiences.

The additions include the launch of the Tunnel Club, an immersive hospitality concept located beside the players' tunnel, and the complete refurbishment of the President Club, the stadium's flagship corporate hospitality space.

Premium Hospitality Continues to Evolve Espanyol

Hospitality has become one of the fastest-growing commercial segments in football, with clubs increasingly looking beyond traditional VIP seating to create exclusive experiences that cannot be replicated through broadcast coverage.

At RCDE Stadium, Espanyol's new Tunnel Club is designed around that concept. Located adjacent to the players' entrance tunnel, the space combines private four- and five-seat hospitality boxes with premium seating, exclusive catering and direct access to a dedicated VIP lounge overlooking one of the most exclusive areas of the stadium.

The concept gives guests access to moments normally reserved for players and club staff, including the teams' final preparations before kick-off.

President Club Receives Full Upgrade

Alongside the new Tunnel Club, Espanyol has completed a comprehensive renovation of the President Club. The refurbishment includes redesigned interiors, an upgraded hospitality offering and the introduction of "Avui ens visita" ("Today We Welcome"), a new pre-match programme featuring appearances by former footballers and leading figures from the sports industry.

RCD Espanyol said the latest developments reinforce the RCDE Stadium's ambition to become a leading destination for hospitality and business networking within the sports industry.

According to the club, both projects are intended to strengthen the connection between sport, entertainment and the corporate sector through premium environments designed for companies, partners and institutional guests.
