More Bernabeu controversy as Real Madrid cancel Lola Indigo concert hours after date is announced
Real Madrid's use of the Santiago Bernabeu for concerts remains a point of contention for Los Blancos. The club agreed with the Madrid city council to no longer organize concerts due to violations of noise regulations.
On Monday, Spanish artist Lola Indigo announced to 2.4 million followers on Instagram a series of concerts, one of which took place on June 14, 2025 at the Bernabeu Stadium. However, less than 8 hours later, Los Blancos issued a statement noting that they are currently unable to hold concerts, and are working with the Council on soundproofing measures.
Real Madrid may be covering themselves legally, as if they are aware that they have not taken the right measures and are still organizing concerts in the future, which could backfire on them. President Florentino Perez recently downplayed the economic impact of not hosting concerts at the renovated Bernabeu, despite previously being touted as one of the driving financial forces behind the project.
