Open House Madrid is an architecture and city festival that, over the course of a weekend, offers free access to dozens of buildings that are usually closed to the public.

For 2020, Open House Madrid has designed a Special Edition that, under the theme "Rediscover Madrid," will focus on the city as a benchmark for architecture and design. The city's most unique spaces will open their doors through small-group in-person tours and virtual visits. The program ranges from classic and historic buildings to contemporary architecture and some of the most renowned architecture firms, where the public can learn firsthand about the latest developments and the design process behind the buildings that surround us.
