What is Open House Valencia?

The organizer describes it as part of Open House Worldwide and the European Open House project. The nonprofit, multidisciplinary project says donations help sustain the festival and its free activities. Open House Valencia visitor information · Open House Valencia
When is the 2026 festival?
The eighth Valencia edition is scheduled for October 23–25, 2026, according to the organizer and the regional tourism listing. The organizer also names Xàtiva, Cocentaina, Llíria and Manises as guest municipalities. Satellite activities extend from September into November, so check the date and location of each listing rather than assuming it falls on the main Valencia weekend. Official visitor information
How do visits and registration work?
Most festival activities are free and do not require advance registration, but that does not apply automatically to every event. Building visits use a personal OHV credential and are available during specified hours. Open Walk urban routes have limited capacity and require free registration. Talks, workshops and other activities may have their own conditions. Check the organizer’s visitor information and the individual activity listing for its timing, access requirements and registration details.

- Building visit: Check whether the personal OHV credential is needed and note the stated visiting hours.
- Open Walk: Check the route, date and start time, and register for free because capacity is limited.
- Talk, workshop or other event: Confirm its listing for any registration, capacity or access conditions.
- Guest municipality or satellite activity: Confirm its location and date separately from the October 23–25 Valencia festival.
For a practical plan, select an activity in the official program, confirm its access conditions and time window, then check its location before setting out. Official visitor information and program
What the previous edition tells you—and what it doesn’t
Open House Europe reported that the 2025 Valencia edition included more than 70 buildings and over 20 guided urban routes, alongside technical visits, exhibitions, talks, workshops, satellite events and other cultural activities.
