Online Tickets For the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona

Q: Is it necessary to pre-book entry tickets to the Sagrada Familia online or can we just buy tickets at the door on the day? We only have one day in Barcelona.

A: We advise you to buy your tickets in advance for this Barcelona attraction. The Sagrada Familia is a giant Basilica designed by Antoni Gaudí. It is the no.1 most visited tourist attraction in Barcelona with 3,000,000 visitors per year.

There are often very long queues to get into the attraction with the entrances that deals with tickets purchases at the door.

If you don't want to be stuck in a long queue then it is advisable to pre-book your entrance tickets to the Sagrada Familia. The online advanced ticket purchase entrance either has considerably shorter queues or no queues at all.

The other issue is that if the Sagrada Familia reaches its capacity of visitors then you even may find you will not be permitted to enter at all until the number of visitors inside the Sagrada Familia reduces to that of a safe level.

If you choose not to purchase your Sagrada Familia tickets in advance then it's best to be prepared for standing in a queue. This can be uncomfortable if you are waiting out in the hot Spanish sun. It is highly recommended to bring a parasol, sun cream and a bottle of water with you if you have to endure an extended wait. It is not unusual for waiting times to be as much as one hour or more to get in if you intend to only purchase your ticket at the door. This is why we recommend you buy your tickets online before you go for this particular attraction.
