How to Buy Sagrada Familia Tickets

Where you can buy

You can buy Sagrada Familia tickets in three places: the basilica's own website and app, the direct-purchase QR codes around the building, or a reseller such as GetYourGuide. According to the official FAQs, tickets can only be purchased online, so there is no staffed ticket window to join.

The basilica's own channel is its website and official app. Our guide to Sagrada Familia official tickets vs resellers explains the differences in detail.

Resellers sell the same visit, often bundled with a guide or a second monument. I'll come back to them in the last section.

Sagrada Família tickets online

Sagrada Família tickets online are sold through the official ticket page, the official app and approved resellers. Everything else that looks like a ticket site deserves a second look, and our page on avoiding fake Sagrada Familia ticket sites shows what to check.

The basilica says tickets go on sale roughly two months before the visit, so you can't book a date further out than that. For timing advice, see how far in advance to book Sagrada Familia.

Can you buy on the day? Sometimes, through the QR codes, depending on occupancy, and the page on last-minute and same-day Sagrada Familia tickets covers it.

Choosing ticket type and time slot

Choose the basic ticket if you want the basilica and museum, and add towers or a guided tour only if you want them. At the time of writing in 2026, the official basic ticket is 26 €, and every ticket is tied to one time slot.

The general ticket covers the basilica and museum for as long as you like. The official page says it doesn't include the towers or the crypt. It comes with an audioguide you download through the official app.

Important Tips

The most important tip is to arrive inside your time slot, because tickets are only valid for the time you chose. Late arrivals can't enter, as the basilica's FAQs state, and our page on Sagrada Familia time slots and late arrival explains how slots work.

Tickets are nominative, so each one carries a visitor's name, and the details can't be changed after booking. Check spellings before you pay.

From 2 February 2026 the hour from 9:00 to 10:00 is a quiet hour. You need earphones for any audio, and visitors are asked to stay quiet. If you want a calmer visit, I'd book that first slot, but only if you're happy to keep your voice down.

Wondering about time inside? The audioguide on the basic ticket runs about an hour, and how long to visit Sagrada Familia gives the full answer.

Do you need tickets for Sagrada Familia?

Yes, you need a ticket to go inside the basilica, and a time slot comes with it. The FAQs say that with advance tickets you can enter without waiting.

You can admire the outside without one, which our page on visiting Sagrada Familia without a ticket covers.

Discounts, free entry and senior tickets

Reduced prices exist for seniors (21 €), under 30s (24 €) and students (24 €), and children under 11 go in free. You show proof at the entrance.

For ages and rules, see Sagrada Familia senior tickets. If you're hoping to pay nothing, read whether you can enter Sagrada Familia for free.

Step-by-step checkout

Checkout is the same on any site: choose the date, choose the ticket, choose the time, enter names, pay. Here is the order I'd follow.

• Open the site or app you've chosen and pick your date.
• Choose the ticket type from the table above, and add towers or a tour if you want them.
• Pick the time slot. Check it against your hotel, metro and breakfast plans before you click.
• Enter the name of every visitor exactly as it appears on their photo ID.
• Pay and wait for the confirmation email.

How do I buy Sagrada Familia tickets online?

Go to the official ticket shop or a reseller, choose your date, ticket and time slot, enter each visitor's name, and pay by card. Then save the e-ticket they send you.

I can't promise which payment methods each shop accepts, so look at the payment screen before you start. If you hit an error, the official FAQs list a Booking Management Centre on 931 980 705 and reserves@ext.sagradafamilia.org for purchase or app problems.

Do you need a passport for Sagrada Familia?

You need official photo ID at the entrance, and for visitors from abroad a passport is the simplest thing to carry. The basilica doesn't name the document, so bring whatever counts as official photo ID for you.

If you booked a discount ticket, you must also show the proof for it.

Receiving your e-ticket

Your e-ticket arrives by email after payment, and you can show it on the official app, print it or save it on your phone. You'll scan it at the entrance, so make sure the code is readable.

I'd save a copy offline before you leave the hotel, because signal near a crowded entrance can be patchy. That's my habit, not a rule. Our page on Sagrada Familia e-tickets explained goes through what's on the ticket.

If your plans change, the official rule is strict: as a general rule, no exchanges or returns. You must ask at least 48 hours before the visit, and only unused tickets qualify. Resellers set their own terms, and our guide to cancelling or changing Sagrada Familia tickets answers the refund question.

Best place to buy

For a plain entry ticket, the best place is the official shop or app, because you pay the face price of 26 € and get the audioguide through the basilica's own app. For a tour, a combined visit or a date that looks full, I'd use GetYourGuide. It's a commission link, and the sections below tell you what each option covers.

All of the sagrada familia tickets on offer differ in what's inside, so check before you pay. Sagrada Familia Entry Ticket with Audio Guide is from $38, with free cancellation up to 2 days ahead, and our review of the audio guide ticket has more.

How to book Sagrada Familia tickets with a guide or a combo

Book a guided or combined option on GetYourGuide if you'd like someone to lead the visit. All five below get you inside the basilica, and their listed prices are from, in US dollars.

Sagrada Familia Skip-the-Line Entry Ticket & Tour is from $66, with an official tour guide and a 4.81 rating from 15,486 reviews. Sagrada Familia Entry Ticket and Guided Tour is from $64, but only 13 reviews back it. Guided Tour and Skip-the-Line Ticket for the Sagrada Familia is from $95 and lists an Italian guide, so check the language.

To see Park Güell on the same trip, Park Güell & La Sagrada Familia Tickets and Tour is from $80 for about 4 hours, and our page on Sagrada Familia and Park Güell combo tickets compares the options.

None of these includes the towers unless the listing says so, and you should check availability for starting times. Our GetYourGuide vs Viator comparison covers other resellers, and Sagrada Familia tickets sold out: your options is the page to read if your date is full.
