A neighbourhood association is taking the owners of Real Madrids football stadium to court over noise pollution from concerts, according to a court document seen by AFP on Thursday.
The association is aiming to defend its quality of life from the negative impacts of the Santiago Bernabeus redevelopment and its subsequent use as a venue for concerts and other events, instead of just for hosting Real Madrids football matches.
High-profile concerts, including by American megastar Taylor Swift, held in 2024, upset local residents in the wealthy Chamartin neighbourhood in the north of the Spanish capital because they surpassed legal noise pollution levels.
