Quick answer: IKEA’s Madrid OOH campaign ahead of El Clásico encourages Real Madrid and FC Barcelona to resolve matters off the field with a message of unity and dialogue.

Frequently Asked Questions

IKEA launched a billboard near Santiago Bernabéu ahead of El Clásico, encouraging Real Madrid and FC Barcelona to ‘resolve matters off the field.’

Because it goes beyond product promotion, turning an intense sports rivalry into a message about conversation, respect, and togetherness through OOH creativity.

The banner was installed directly across from the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid for maximum visibility during the build-up to El Clásico.

It reintroduces the tradition of pre-match meals between the clubs’ boards, using humor and simplicity to promote harmony and human connection.

That outdoor advertising can deliver more than awareness — it can shape culture, inspire empathy, and spark dialogue in moments of high emotion.

Bottom line: Ahead of El Clásico, IKEA placed a large banner facing Santiago Bernabéu inviting Real Madrid and FC Barcelona to sit down and reconcile. The campaign uses outdoor advertising to promote dialogue, transforming football rivalry into a cultural statement of peace and togetherness.
