Sagrada Família free 'open doors' days return for Santa Eulàlia festivities

Barcelona's famous unfinished Sagrada Família basilica will hold open doors days on February 8 and 9 to celebrate Santa Eulàlia, coinciding with the Saint of the city's old patroness. 

To be able to visit Antoni Gaudí's famous basilica, visitors will need to participate in an 8,500 free ticket draw available on the building's website. 

Registrations for the draw run from January 28 to February 2, 9 pm. Winners will be announced on February 3. 

Lucky tickets will include visits to the inside of the basilica, the museum and the Escoles building.

For this edition, a new room in the museum dedicated to Antoni Gaudí called 'Antoni Gaudí: Humanism and spirituality' will also be accessible. The new area exhibits new photos and documents related to the architect.  

Free entrance will take place from 3 pm to 6.30 pm on Saturday and from 3 pm to 7 pm on Sunday. 

It is the fourth consecutive year that these open days at Sagrada Família are organized coinciding with the Santa Eulàlia celebrations across the Catalan capital. La Sagrada Família also organizes open days for La Mercè celebrations in late September.
