The Association of Neighbors Harmed by the Bernabéu filed a lawsuit against the authorization granted by the Madrid City Council to hold an NFL event at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in November. The association considers that the event was not covered by the assumptions provided for in noise legislation.
The neighbors question the legality of the municipal authorization, arguing that it omitted essential requirements that would allow the holding of the American sports event at the Madrid stadium. The complaint specifically points to failures in the approval process.
The conflict arises after the celebration of the NFL game at the Bernabéu, which attracted great attention but also generated complaints from local residents due to noise levels during the event. This is not the first time that neighbors have expressed concern about activities that could affect the quality of life in the area surrounding the stadium.
The judicial decision could have implications for future international events at the Bernabéu, including possible NFL games in Europe. The Madrid City Council has not yet publicly commented on the lawsuit filed by the neighborhood association.
