The Nou Mestalla is progressing in its configuration as a new-generation venue with the incorporation of Otis as a partner, which will equip the stadium with a vertical mobility system to enhance the fan experience.

The Nou Mestalla project continues to take shape with the integration of Otis, a leading company in mobility solutions, as a strategic partner. This collaboration aims to equip the future stadium with a state-of-the-art vertical transport system, designed to optimize the fan experience, improve internal operations, and ensure universal accessibility for all users.
The agreement includes the installation of 19 elevators, specially adapted for environments with high public traffic and intensive use, characteristic of large sports venues. Furthermore, Otis will be responsible for the maintenance of these systems for a period of five years, thus ensuring continuous and quality service.
Of these, ten elevators will be strategically distributed throughout the stadium, facilitating access to all levels of the stands—lower, middle, and upper—and reducing the need for walking. This infrastructure represents a significant advancement compared to the current Camp de Mestalla, which only has one elevator with access to the upper stand.
The project also includes six exclusive elevators for hospitality areas, offering more direct and comfortable access to executive boxes and premium areas. Additionally, three freight elevators will be added, essential for the internal logistics of the venue.
The equipment will incorporate Otis's Gen3 technology, which eliminates the need for a machine room and allows for more efficient integration into the stadium's architectural design. They will also feature advanced monitoring systems to supervise their operation in real-time and anticipate potential incidents. In terms of safety, the elevators will have automatic rescue systems in case of power failure, bidirectional communication for emergencies, and components designed to withstand intensive use. Sustainability is another pillar of the project, with solutions such as the ReGen system, which reuses part of the energy generated, reducing the stadium's overall electricity consumption.
