All You Need to Know About Alcazar Seville Opening Hours

Peak Season vs Low Season

Peak Season - March to October

Low Season - November to February

The spring and summer months offer pleasant weather, and the gardens are in full bloom, making it a popular time to visit Alcazar Seville. 

However, expect larger crowds and potentially higher ticket prices during this period. Booking tickets in advance is advisable to secure your preferred time slot.

The winter months constitute the low tourist season, providing a more tranquil atmosphere with fewer visitors exploring the palace complex. 

While some outdoor areas might not be as vibrant, the interiors remain captivating, and there are opportunities for discounted entry fees and accommodation.

Weekday vs Weekend

Weekdays: Weekdays, particularly from Monday to Friday, generally see fewer tourists compared to weekends. This leads to a more peaceful and relaxed visit, allowing you to explore the palace complex and its surroundings with greater ease and comfort. Alcazar Seville's gardens, such as the beautiful Parterre Garden and the tranquil Patio de la Montería, are often less crowded on weekdays. This creates a more tranquil setting, perfect for enjoying a leisurely stroll or finding a peaceful spot to relax.

Weekends: On weekends, especially Saturdays and Sundays, Alcazar Seville tends to attract a larger number of visitors, including both tourists and locals. This increased footfall can lead to longer queues at the entrance and a more crowded environment inside the palace complex. Due to the higher number of visitors, the wait times for entry and to access certain areas of the Alcazar, such as the rooms and gardens, may be longer on weekends.
