RCD Espanyol (2009–present) Cornellà (2022–present) Spain National Football Team

With a capacity of 40,000 seats.[4] it is the 10th-largest stadium in Spain and the 3rd-largest in Catalonia. It became the home of RCD Espanyol in 2009, replacing their previous stadium, the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, being the 8th stadium in the club's history.

History

The stadium is known as the Estadi Cornellà-El Prat because it is located on the borders of the municipalities Cornellà and El Prat. The club hopes to find a buyer for the naming rights for the stadium.

Espanyol defeated Liverpool 3–0 in the stadium's inaugural match on 2 August 2009.[5]

After the death of club captain Daniel Jarque on 8 August 2009, just six days after the inaugural match, it was proposed that the stadium should be renamed in his honour.[6] However, the club has not taken a definite stance on the subject.[7]

In July 2014, the stadium was renamed as Power8 Stadium for sponsorship reasons.[8] It was discovered that Power8 was an investment fraud which duped 100s of Asian investors, organised by Bryan Cook and Thomas Yi of London Capital. In January 2016, the club renamed the stadium as RCDE Stadium ending the sponsorship of Power8.[9]

Other uses

On 3 July 2010, the stadium received a live concert of American hip hop group The Black Eyed Peas, during The E.N.D World Tour, in front of 30,000 fans.

On 1 June 2019, German metal band Rammstein performed at the stadium as part of their Europe Stadium Tour 2019 with 33,825 fans in attendance.
