Sagrada Familia Tickets

Reduce the long queues with a Fast Track ticket, skip the line as part of a small group tour, or combine your entrance and tour with tower access.

The guided tour will give you deeper insights from your guide. If you want to explore alone or at your own pace, go for just the entrance ticket - it includes the Sagrada Familia audio guide app.

You can also combine your Sagrada Familia tickets with a trip to Gaudí's iconic hilltop attraction, Park Guell. If you're looking to really explore Barcelona's top sights, Sagrada Familia access is included in the Tiqets-exclusive Gaudí Bundle and Barcelona Pass.

Once you've scanned your Sagrada Familia tickets to get in, you can stay inside for as long as you like, soaking up this gorgeous Gaudí masterpiece. If you're pushed for time however, it's best to leave at least an hour and a half for your visit. This will give you enough time to explore this iconic building without rushing. If you want to go up to the Gaudí towers to take in the views of Barcelona, add another 30 minutes.

The twisted edifice of Sagrada Familia is famous all over the world, but for something so well-loved it's not exactly finished. Its construction was stopped for decades following damage in the Spanish Civil War, but that's not the only reason for the delay.

Gaudí's designs for the Sagrada Familia were incredibly complex. His plans included a multitude of multi-faceted structures and mathematical equations, many of which were tough to conceptualize in his lifetime. It's only now, through advancements in construction technology, that his plans can be made a reality.

When it's finally finished in 2026, (which will mark the 100th anniversary of Gaudí’s death) your Sagrada Familia tickets will buy you entrance to the largest and most complete example of Catalan Modernisme. It will also be the tallest religious building in Europe.

The best time to visit the Sagrada Familia is in the morning, during the week. Try to arrive before 9 am and you might only have to wait a few minutes to get in. At other times it can take between 1 and 2 hours to reach the doors! It's a little less busy in the low season, from late October through March.

Want the best photos of the Sagrada Familia? The church's huge stained-glass windows throw shafts of sun across the naves, flooding them with colour. This effect is most beautiful mid-morning and mid to late-afternoon, when the sun is shining straight onto the magnificent windows.

With over 3 million visitors a year, this is one of Barcelona's most popular (and busiest) attractions – make sure to book your Sagrada Familia tickets online before you arrive.

You can bring most things into the Sagrada Familia but everyone will have their bags, rucksacks, luggage and personal items checked at the entrance. For safety, no hats are allowed inside the nave or the museum, except for religious, health or belief-related reasons. Professional photo equipment is not allowed inside the Basilica, but feel free to snap as many photos as you like with your regular cameras or smartphones.
