Tourist office Granada
The Ayuntamiento de Granada, the city council, runs the official tourist office of Granada through its tourism department, branded Granadatur, and it keeps 1 walk-in information office in the centre of the city. It offers tourist information on the city of Granada and the wider province, with machines for Alhambra tickets and Sierra Nevada ski passes and tablets to buy the Granada Card online. The card below is that municipal office, followed by the regional tourist office that the Junta de Andalucía runs a few steps from Plaza Nueva.

The Granada guide on Tourist Office is the place to start for anyone planning what to do in Granada. It sets out a one day itinerary from the Alhambra and the Generalife through the Albaicín to Granada Cathedral and the Royal Chapel, and it ranks the ten landmarks worth booking ahead, the Corral del Carbón and the Monastery of San Jerónimo among them.
It also gathers the free viewpoints such as the Mirador de San Nicolás, the caves of Sacromonte and the quieter corners that rarely make a first visit, together with the concerts coming up in the city and practical notes on how many days Granada needs and how to reach the centre from the airport.
Bank holidays and local festivities in Granada
Public holidays reshape a visit more than most travellers expect. Offices, banks and many shops close, museums move to holiday timetables and public transport runs a reduced service, so a day built around a museum or a market can fall flat. Granada keeps 14 paid holidays in 2026: the 8 that apply across the whole of Spain, 4 more that only Andalusia observes and 2 that the city adds for itself. The Andalusian and local days are the ones that catch visitors out, because they are ordinary working days elsewhere in the country.
