The Sagrada Família is offering half-price tickets to Barcelona residents for a year

BarcelonaThe Sagrada Família hopes that Barcelona residents will participate in the commemoration of the centenary of Antoni Gaudí's death in 2026. To this end, the basilica has announced that tickets to visit the temple will be half price all year round for Barcelona residents. Currently, the cheapest ticket to the temple—which does not include a visit to any of the towers and includes an audio guide that can be downloaded to a mobile phone—costs 26 euros. These tickets will not be available through the Sagrada Família website, but must be purchased through the central reservations office. Those interested will have to "send an email and provide proof of residency," which can be a photocopy of their ID card or municipal registration certificate. It will also be necessary to bring the ID card or registration certificate to identify oneself at the basilica when entering with one of these tickets.

Discounted tickets are for the general admission of individual products. That is, the basic visit (€26), the guided tour (€30), the visit with access to the towers (€36), and the guided tour with access to the towers (€40). Barcelona residents can purchase them at half price.

During 2026, the centenary of Antoni Gaudí's death, the basilica will also complete the Tower of Jesus, which will become the Sagrada Familia, the tallest religious building in the worldAlthough the cross is still under construction, the basilica has already achieved this status, having surpassed 162 meters in height with the first pieces of the cross. In a statement, the basilica's construction board explained that the centenary of Gaudí's death and the completion of the Jesus Tower "make this year a significant occasion for the inhabitants of Barcelona" and wished "to involve them in the celebrations."
