Free entry and reductions
Children under 11 and visitors with disabilities get free basic entry (proof at the door). Large/single-parent family and other special rates need advance requests via the official process. Street views of the façades are always free — that is not the same as entering the nave.
If the official checkout rejects your card
Try another card, PayPal if offered, or a travel companion’s foreign card. Resellers are usually pricier and weaker on cancellations. We do not sell official Sagrada tickets via affiliates. If payment still fails, shift the slot or lean on our Gaudí route with façades and other houses while you sort payment.
Stay online with an eSIM, compare flights via flight search, and cover the trip with travel insurance.
Getting there and visit logistics
Address: Carrer de Mallorca, 401. Metro Sagrada Família (L2 and L5). Budget 1.5 hours inside + 20–30 minutes for security + 30–40 minutes if you booked a tower. Best façade photo stop: Plaça de Gaudí park with the pond. During major ceremonies (such as the June 2026 Tower of Jesus Christ inauguration) the metro stop and streets can close — follow city and basilica notices.
Day plan: Sagrada Família and nearby

Visitor tips
- Tickets are nominative — bring matching photo ID.
- Download the audioguide app on hotel Wi‑Fi before you arrive.
- Towers need sensible shoes; lift + stairs are not for every visitor.
- Official tickets only from the basilica site — ignore street “ticket desks” without a sagradafamilia.org QR.
Sleeping in Eixample near L2/L5 saves the morning — compare via hotel search.
FAQ
Where do I buy official tickets?
Only on sagradafamilia.org (Tickets). Tickets are named and timed. AlpacaBag does not sell official Sagrada Família tickets as affiliate products — use the basilica site.
What do tickets cost in 2026?
Official price-page orientation: basic entry with app audioguide ~€26, with guide ~€30, with tower ~€36, guide + tower ~€40. Under 11s free for basic entry (extra services priced separately). Confirm at checkout.
What if I miss my time slot?
Entry is tied to the time on your ticket — arrive early and allow for security. You usually cannot switch date/time without a new booking. Major events can close the basilica; check the official status page before you travel.
Dress code and rules?
Cover shoulders and knees; large bags and aggressive tripods may be refused. Bring photo ID matching the ticket name. Photography without flash is generally fine; drones are not.
Which tower should I pick?
Nativity façade looks east toward the sea; Passion façade looks toward the city centre. Availability drives the choice. Towers involve lift + stairs and are not suitable for everyone — read the limits on the official site.
