In the shape of the infamous soccer team's logo, the Real Madrid Resort Island will become another way for fans to become immersed in the brand. The resort is planned to be located in the United Arab Emirates. The country is already known for its expensive man-made islands in varying shapes and sizes. And in this case the project will be over a billion dollars for Real Madrid Football club.
This luxurious resort will hold a 10,000-seat capacity sports arena right by the sea, no doubt for possible matches. Housing 60 bungalows and 48 villas, along with a hotel, a Real Madrid Museum, marina and amusement park, this resort will have everything for a true soccer fan. And if that isn't enough, they are taking a note from Coachella with its hologram Tupac and having the first ever hologram soccer show.
However, soccer fans may have to wait as the resort's completion is expected to be done in January 2015.
