At Christmas, originality means returning to the origin
18 December 2026
Sagrada Família
The Sagrada Família ends the year with a solemn event full of music and light. This special celebration will extend Christmas greetings to the people of the city and will bring the Nativity Façade to the fore, recalling its symbolic richness and the legacy of Antoni Gaudí. The Escolania de Montserrat, together with the Orquestra Simfònica del Vallès, will open the evening with a musical performance capturing the deepest spirit of Catalan Christmas carols, full of emotion and spirituality. That same night, the façade will take centre stage to celebrate the mystery of the Nativity, nature and the origin of creation, sending out a message through the original light and spirit that Gaudí breathed into his work in the heart of the city. See all the information on the Sagrada Família website. This activity is part of the Gaudí Year commemoration. Last updated: 4/03/2026
