In the next stage of the visit to the Bernabéu, we descend from the first amphitheater towards the playing field to reach the Presidencial stage.

The next stop on the tour is a visit to the stadium's changing rooms, the place where players change and prepare before playing and where some of the greatest players in football history have passed.
In the dressing room of the first team you can see the position with the name and photo where each player changes.
Corridors and benches
After visiting the Real Madrid dressing room, we go on the same journey that the players take to reach the field. You go up the same steps and find yourself in the benches where the players of Real Madrid and the visiting team sit.
You can approach the playing field but without stepping on the lawn, as it is protected by a fence so that it cannot deteriorate and is in perfect condition when playing.
Real Madrid bus
While visiting the Santiago Bernabeu you can do a virtual tour on a bus that is the replica of the one used by Real Madrid players. The simulator has 12 65-inch high-definition 4K screens and a panoramic video wall, recreating the experience of Real Madrid players before reaching the stadium.
