The International Passive House Open Days are your chance to discover the power of energy-efficient buildings firsthand. Whether you're interested in building your own Passive House or just curious about this sustainable living concept, this event is for you!
Meet Passive House Owners
Connect with current residents and hear about their experiences living in a Passive House building. Learn what it's really like to live in one and get insights into the building or retrofitting process.
Expert Guidance
Some open houses will feature professionals who can dive deep into the technical aspects of Passive House projects. From energy-saving systems to advanced insulation techniques, they're ready to answer all your questions.
This November, Passive House communities around the world came together to showcase the benefits of the Passive House standard. In the UK, over 20 projects opened their doors, while in the US, 16 projects were featured. Meanwhile, in Australia, 35 hosts welcomed more than 1,000 visitors with 80+ guided tours across multiple climate zones, highlighting the energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and occupant comfort that Passive House buildings provide.
These global events were a true celebration of how Passive House enhances sustainability and wellbeing. Huge thanks to all the hosts, visitors, and affiliates who made this year’s event such a success.
We’re already looking forward to next year—mark your calendars for November 13-15, 2026, for the next International Passive House Open Days!
