Barcelona has been working on a series of solutions to its lack of a permanent home this season, and it seemed that they could have to take their games out of the city in a moment. Now, although it seems that they will be given postponement.
Spotify Camp Nou remains under construction, without a fixed date for its return. The plan was to return home in November, with a capacity of 60,000 fans, while the work continues on the third level. That date has been delayed on three occasions, but they hoped to return before the end of the season in May, which coincides with the Classic, established for May 11.
The construction company Limak has guarantees from Barcelona that Camp Nou will be ready for time for their biggest house game, but without guarantee, they were looking for alternatives. The Estadi Olimpic Lluis Company, where they have been playing during the last 18 months, was scheduled to organize a series of concerts in May, which were being negotiated with the Barcelona City Council. Although they had granted Barcelona extensions on their lease of Montjuic, it was rumored that the Rolling Stones were scheduled for dates in May, prohibiting the use of the stadium by Barcelona.
According to the Norwegian Björnulf Vik, big fan of the Rolling Stones, the European tour has fallen. Fortunately for Barça and Laporta. If there are no last -minute mishaps, the Montjuïc stadium will be available for Barça to end there the season.

However, a Bjornulf Vik post, as cited by Joan Fontes, has affirmed that the Rolling Stones tour in Europe, which was never officially confirmed, is now canceled. As such, this would free Montjuic so that Barcelona continues to use it. Both the Stones Tour and its cancellation are at this stage still without confirming, so Barcelona cannot count their blessings yet.

Previously it had been informed that Barcelona could consider taking the classic against Real Madrid to a stadium abroad to maximize income, although President Joan Laporta apparently was against this idea, and even would have played it in the training field of Barcelona.
