⚖️ Justice sides with Real Madrid over concerts at the Bernabéu | OneFootball

The Madrid Provincial Court has issued a key ruling that represents a complete legal victory for Real Madrid.

The court has fully upheld the appeals filed by José Ángel Sánchez, the club’s general director, and the company Real Madrid Estadio S.L., thus bringing the criminal proceedings to a definitive close.

The ruling is categorical in stating that neither the executives nor the entity are responsible for any criminal wrongdoing arising from the concerts held at the Bernabéu.

In this way, the courts have ordered the full dismissal of the case, putting an end to the legal uncertainty surrounding the stadium’s musical events.

Those responsible: the promoters

The ruling clarifies a fundamental point: responsibility for complying with decibel limits lies exclusively with the promoter companies.

According to the Court, these organizations, as holders of the venue rights, are responsible for ensuring compliance with noise pollution protection regulations during the shows.

Likewise, the court stresses that an administrative violation due to excessive noise does not, by itself, justify the intervention of Criminal Law. This legal nuance undermines the prosecution’s claims, which sought to elevate to the level of a crime what the court considers an administrative matter unrelated to the club.
