Four Things to Do Beyond Football
VISIT THE ROYAL PALACE AND ALMUDENA CATHEDRAL
Visit the Royal Palace and Almudena Cathedral
Just a short journey from the Santiago Bernabéu, the Royal Palace of Madrid (Palacio Real) is one of the city's most spectacular landmarks and the largest functioning royal palace in Europe. Although the Spanish Royal Family no longer lives there, visitors can explore its magnificent State Rooms, armoury and beautifully landscaped Sabatini Gardens while enjoying panoramic views across the city. Standing alongside the palace is the impressive Almudena Cathedral, Madrid's principal cathedral, which blends neoclassical, neo-Gothic and contemporary architectural styles. Climb to the cathedral's dome for fantastic views over Plaza de la Armería and the historic heart of Madrid before enjoying a stroll through the surrounding streets filled with cafés and traditional tapas bars.
WATCH THE SUNSET AT THE TEMPLE OF DEDBOD
Watch the Sunset at the Temple of Debod
One of Madrid's most unique attractions is the Temple of Debod, a genuine ancient Egyptian temple dating back more than 2,000 years. Gifted to Spain by Egypt in 1968, the temple was carefully reconstructed in Parque del Oeste, where it has become one of the city's most popular viewpoints. As the sun begins to set, the temple is beautifully reflected in the surrounding pools while the Madrid skyline glows in the evening light, making it one of the best places in the city to take photographs. It's an ideal way to relax before or after your Real Madrid match and offers a completely different perspective of Spain's vibrant capital.
DISCOVER THE PRADO MUSEUM
Art lovers should make time for the world-renowned Museo Nacional del Prado, one of Europe's finest art museums. Home to masterpieces by Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, Rubens and Titian, the Prado showcases centuries of European art in an elegant setting close to the beautiful Retiro Park. Whether you're an experienced art enthusiast or simply looking to experience one of Madrid's cultural highlights, the Prado provides an unforgettable insight into Spain's artistic heritage.
RELAX IN RETIRO PARK
Escape the bustle of the city with a visit to El Retiro Park, Madrid's most famous green space and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Covering over 300 acres, the park is perfect for a leisurely walk, hiring a rowing boat on the picturesque lake or visiting the stunning Crystal Palace (Palacio de Cristal). With tree-lined avenues, elegant fountains and outdoor cafés, El Retiro offers the perfect opportunity to unwind before heading to the Santiago Bernabéu for an unforgettable Real Madrid matchday experience.
VISIT THE FAMOUS CIBELES
Visit Plaza de Cibeles
No trip to Madrid is complete without visiting the iconic Plaza de Cibeles, one of the city's most recognisable landmarks and an essential stop for every Real Madrid supporter. Dominated by the magnificent Cibeles Fountain and the striking Palacio de Cibeles, the square has become synonymous with the club's greatest triumphs. Whenever Real Madrid win La Liga, the UEFA Champions League or another major trophy, thousands of fans gather here to celebrate as the players traditionally pay tribute by placing a Real Madrid scarf around the statue of the Roman goddess Cybele. Whether you're visiting on a match weekend or simply exploring Madrid, Plaza de Cibeles offers a fantastic photo opportunity and a chance to experience one of the city's most treasured football landmarks.
Weather and Climate
Madrid Climate
Madrid enjoys a Mediterranean climate with continental influences, meaning visitors can expect hot, dry summers and mild winters with plenty of sunshine throughout the year. The Spanish capital experiences more than 300 days of sunshine annually, making it an excellent destination for a football city break at almost any time of year. Spring and autumn are particularly popular, with comfortable daytime temperatures that are ideal for sightseeing before heading to the Santiago Bernabéu for a Real Madrid match.
If you're travelling during the La Liga season, temperatures can vary depending on the time of year. Early-season fixtures in August and September are often warm, with daytime temperatures regularly exceeding 25°C, while winter matches between December and February are generally cool but pleasant, averaging between 6°C and 15°C. Rainfall is relatively low throughout the year, although a light waterproof jacket is worth packing during the spring or autumn months. Whatever the season, Madrid's sunny climate, outdoor cafés and vibrant atmosphere make it one of Europe's most enjoyable destinations for a football weekend away.
Getting around
Madrid is one of Europe's easiest capitals to explore, thanks to its excellent public transport network and walkable city centre. The Madrid Metro is fast, reliable and affordable, with more than 300 stations serving the city's most popular neighbourhoods and attractions. The Santiago Bernabéu Stadium has its own Metro station on Line 10, making it simple to travel to and from the stadium on matchday. If you're planning your journeys in advance, you can download the official Madrid Metro map here: Madrid Metro Map (PDF). The Metro is complemented by an extensive network of buses, Cercanías suburban trains, taxis and ride-hailing services such as Uber and Cabify, giving visitors plenty of convenient transport options.
Many of Madrid's most famous attractions, including the Royal Palace, Almudena Cathedral, Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Plaza de Cibeles and the Prado Museum, are all within comfortable walking distance of one another, making the city ideal for exploring on foot. If you're staying in central Madrid as part of your World Choice Sports package, you'll find it easy to combine sightseeing, authentic Spanish cuisine and an unforgettable Real Madrid matchday without ever needing a car. A comfortable pair of walking shoes and a Metro travel card are all you'll need to make the most of your time in the Spanish capital.
metropolitano Stadium
The Riyadh Air Metropolitano is one of Europe's most modern and impressive football stadiums, serving as the home of Atlético Madrid since 2017. Replacing the historic Vicente Calderón Stadium, the venue has a capacity of over 70,000 and is renowned for its striking wave-shaped roof, exceptional sightlines and superb facilities. Designed to provide an outstanding experience for supporters, the stadium regularly hosts major international fixtures, including the 2019 UEFA Champions League Final, and has established itself as one of Spain's premier sporting venues.
Despite its state-of-the-art design, the Metropolitano has quickly developed the passionate atmosphere for which Atlético Madrid is famous. On matchdays, the sea of red and white, the chants of the Atléti faithful and the club's never-say-die spirit create an unforgettable spectacle. Located just east of Madrid's city centre and easily reached by Metro Line 7, the stadium is the perfect place to experience one of European football's most passionate clubs in a world-class setting.
