Napoli enter the competition at this stage as one of the seeded Serie A sides, while Fiorentina came through a Tuscan derby against Pisa in the opening round to earn the trip south. For the rest of the club's home dates, browse all Napoli tickets, though a midweek cup night against Fiorentina is one of the more accessible ways to see a full Maradona this season.
Below you will find what seats cost, where each set of supporters sits, how hospitality works, how tickets reach you and the full Coppa Italia home record against Fiorentina at the stadium. It is everything a buyer needs before committing to a seat in Naples.
Knockout football changes the mood of a fixture. There is no table to protect and no return leg to fall back on, and both clubs have recent cup history at this ground to settle. The prize is a quarter-final in early February against the winner of Atalanta vs Udinese, with the semi-finals and a final at the Stadio Olimpico on 19 May 2027 beyond that.
The visitors make it personal. Fiorentina won 5-2 after extra time on their last cup visit here in January 2022, one of the wildest nights the stadium has seen in the competition, and they reached the final again in 2023. Their supporters will travel believing they can repeat it, while Napoli fans have not forgotten that night either.
The league adds a second layer. The sides meet again in Serie A at the Maradona in January 2027, and many supporters treat Napoli vs Fiorentina in the league as part of the same story. A cup win in December would give either club an edge going into that meeting a month later.
Napoli's season runs on several fronts. Champions League nights such as Napoli vs Bodo/Glimt fill the autumn calendar, and how far the club wants to go in the Coppa Italia often shows in the line-up for ties like this. A strong team sheet from either side pushes demand up quickly once it is announced.
The pedigree on both sides is real. Napoli lifted the trophy most recently in 2020, while Fiorentina's last win came in 2001 and they have lost two finals since, including the 2014 final against Napoli in Rome. A club with that recent record of near misses tends to take the competition seriously, and their supporters do too.
The format raises the stakes further. The eight seeded Serie A sides join at this stage, every round up to the quarter-finals is a single match and only the semi-finals are played over two legs. For Fiorentina, that means one night at the Maradona stands between them and a quarter-final.
Cup pricing sits below league pricing, which brings in a different crowd. Families, younger supporters and visitors who could not get into a league fixture often choose a Coppa Italia night, so a fixture with this much history can sell more strongly than its midweek slot suggests.
Through the club, it can be difficult. Napoli's own sales run through the club's fidelity card scheme and open close to the match. Season tickets usually do not cover cup ties, so seats go on separate sale, with priority windows for card holders before any general release.
Every ticket for an Italian fixture is personalised. The name on the ticket must match a valid photo ID at the gate, with a passport for international visitors and a national identity card for European supporters. That rule shapes how resale works, because each seat has to be assigned to the person attending.
Fiorentina supporters buy through their own club for the away sector. Sales are normally restricted to registered supporters, and the authorities can impose extra limits on fixtures considered sensitive, including bans on sales to residents of certain regions. Any Fiorentina fan planning the trip should follow their club's guidance closely, and wearing violet in a home sector is not a workaround.
Timing is the other challenge. Cup tickets typically go on sale only a couple of weeks before the tie, once the league confirms the slot and the club announces its sales phases. That leaves overseas visitors very little time to arrange flights and hotels around a sale window that may sell through quickly.
The name rule matters for groups too. Each seat is assigned to one named person, so a group of four needs four sets of details that match four identity documents. Gather everyone's passport or identity card details before you buy, because changes close to the match can be slow or impossible.
The marketplace route sidesteps those queues. Seats listed on 1BoxOffice come from verified sellers, every listing shows the sector, the delivery method and any name-matching notes before you pay and you do not need a fidelity card, an Italian address or a purchase history to buy.
Five factors move the price for this tie: seat location, demand, fixture timing, competition context and hospitality tier. Cup prices at the Maradona usually sit below Serie A levels, but a knockout night against Fiorentina carries more weight than an early-round tie, and the 2026/27 cup run gives both clubs a direct path to a trophy.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upper tier / less central | £45 – £75 | Fans who want to be inside the ground at the lowest available price | Curve seats behind the goals, close to the atmosphere |
| Longside standard | £55 – £95 | Couples and small groups | Distinti, the long side opposite the main stand, with a good all-round view |
| Lower tier / central | £80 – £140+ | Fans who want to be near the touchline | Central lower rows with a strong view of both goals |
| Premium seating | £110 – £190+ | Buyers who want the main-stand view | Central Tribuna Posillipo or Tribuna Nisida, covered seating |
| Hospitality / VIP | £220 – £500+ | Corporate guests and special occasions | Premium seats with lounge access, limited capacity |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Timing matters in a particular way for cup ties. Prices often firm up once the line-ups for the round start to take shape, and again if either club comes into the tie on strong form. A midweek December evening also tends to keep the very top of the market lower than a weekend league fixture.
Resale prices are shown in pounds here, while the club prices in euros, so convert at the day's rate when comparing. Upper-tier and Distinti seats usually go first, since they are the most affordable way into the ground for a fixture of this profile. Central Tribuna seats hold their value best, because supply there is limited for every match at the stadium.
The stadium wraps around the pitch in a large open bowl. Curva A and Curva B sit behind the goals, the Distinti run along the long side opposite the main stand and the Tribuna sectors, including the Tribuna Posillipo and Tribuna Nisida, line the main side. The Diego Armando Maradona seating plan shows each sector before you choose.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva B | Fans who want the loudest atmosphere | Lower to mid | Home of Napoli's largest ultra groups; standing and singing throughout, home colours only |
| Curva A | Fans who want noise with a slightly calmer edge | Lower to mid | Passionate home end that fills for big cup nights |
| Tribuna Posillipo and Tribuna Nisida | First-time visitors and tactical viewers | Highest | Main-side sectors with covered seating and clear central views |
| Distinti | Couples and neutral fans | Mid | Good all-round view at a lower price than the central stands |
| Tribuna Family | Families with children | Mid | Designated quieter area in the main stand |
| Settore Ospiti (away sector) | Fiorentina supporters | Set by allocation | Segregated sector with its own entrance, sold through Fiorentina and subject to any travel restrictions; violet belongs here only |
Neutral buyers are better placed in the Distinti or the Tribuna, and violet scarves or loud celebrations in home sectors can lead to being moved, so neutral clothing is the sensible choice. For every other event at the ground this season, browse all Diego Armando Maradona tickets.
The bowl has a running track, so the curves feel further from the pitch than at newer grounds. Central seats in the Tribuna give the clearest view, while the curves give the full Neapolitan atmosphere at a lower price. Visitors who want to see the famous wall of blue should choose a Distinti or Tribuna seat facing one of the curves rather than sitting inside it.
December nights in Naples are mild by northern European standards but cool once the sun goes down, and only part of the bowl is covered. Bring a warm layer and a waterproof for the open sectors, especially if you are sitting in the curves or the upper rows of the Distinti.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Premium Tribuna seat | Couples and solo visitors | Padded central seat under cover with the clearest view of the pitch |
| Premium seat with lounge access | Fans marking a special trip | Food and drinks indoors before taking a central seat |
| Hospitality dining package | Small groups and celebrations | Dining, drinks and a premium seat combined in one booking |
| VIP package | Corporate guests | Dedicated entrance, lounge service and top-category seating |
Hospitality at the Maradona is concentrated in the Tribuna sectors along the main side. Capacity is limited compared with newer stadiums, and a cup night against Fiorentina in the run-up to Christmas tends to attract local businesses entertaining clients. Package names and inclusions can change between seasons, so read each listing carefully.
For a 21:00 kick-off, a covered Tribuna seat is worth considering on its own merits, since it keeps you out of the December wind. If the hospitality tiers are gone, a central Tribuna seat paired with dinner in the city gives you much of the experience for less.
Hospitality also solves the seats-together problem. With every ticket assigned to a named holder, keeping a group in one block through the general sale can be awkward, while a hospitality package seats the whole party together under one booking.
| Delivery Type | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Mobile e-ticket | The ticket shows your name and sector; screenshots may be refused |
| PDF e-ticket | The file opens on your phone and the barcode is clear; keep a copy offline |
| Name change | Allow time for the seller to transfer the holder name before the deadline |
| Hospitality booking | Lounge entrance, opening time and the name the package is under |
Read the listing notes before paying, since they state the delivery type and any name-change step. Bring valid photo ID that matches the name on the ticket and charge your phone fully for mobile entry, because signal around the stadium drops when a full crowd arrives.
Getting there is straightforward. Metro Line 6 and the Cumana railway both stop at Mostra, beside the stadium, while Line 2 to Napoli Campi Flegrei is around 15 minutes from Napoli Centrale and leaves a walk of roughly ten minutes. Bus 152 and park-and-ride shuttles from Bagnoli also serve the ground, and drivers should use the Fuorigrotta exit from the Tangenziale.
Arrive well before kick-off. Security screening at the outer perimeter can be slow on a big night, and large bags, flares and glass are refused at the gates. After a 21:00 start, the final whistle falls close to 23:00, or later if the tie goes to extra time and penalties, so plan the journey back to your hotel in advance.
The streets of Fuorigrotta come alive well before a big night at the stadium. Bars and pizzerias along Viale Augusto and around Piazzale Tecchio fill up from early evening, which makes it easy to eat near the ground before kick-off. Allow time to find your entrance, as the sectors are reached from different sides of the bowl and stewards will direct you by the sector printed on your ticket.

Naples Capodichino airport has direct flights from across Europe and the Middle East, with the Alibus shuttle linking it to Napoli Centrale. Mobile and PDF e-tickets suit overseas buyers, since the ticket travels with you, but Italian tickets carry the holder's name, so make sure each guest's details are correct before the seller transfers them. If you are travelling as a group, filter for listings that guarantee seats together.
Coppa Italia dates are set by the league well in advance, but broadcast choices can still move a tie by a day, and extra time and penalties can push the finish late into the night. Avoid booking a flight for the same night, and consider staying until the following day. Hotel prices in the city also tend to be lower in December than in the spring and summer peak, which offsets some of the cost of a midweek trip. Naples in mid-December is quieter than in summer, and the Christmas markets of Via San Gregorio Armeno make a midweek trip worthwhile in their own right.
Fiorentina supporters face a journey of around 470 kilometres, usually by high-speed train from Firenze Santa Maria Novella in around three hours. Staying in Chiaia, Mergellina or near Piazza Garibaldi keeps you close to Line 2 or Line 6, which makes the late journey back from Fuorigrotta far simpler than relying on taxis after a cup night.
Anyone following the Viola through the season can also look at Stadio Artemio Franchi dates for home matches in Florence.
Napoli and Fiorentina have met ten times in the Coppa Italia at this stadium, and the record captures both clubs' cup pedigree. The early meetings came in the final-round groups of the 1970s, when a 1-1 in May 1971 and another 1-1 in July 1972 set the tone. Napoli beat Fiorentina 1-0 here in May 1975 in a season when the Viola went on to lift the trophy, and the sides drew 0-0 in May 1976 on Napoli's way to winning the cup themselves.
The 1980s brought the Maradona era to the fixture. A 1-1 group draw in September 1984 came weeks after his arrival, a 2-1 win followed in September 1987 and, in January 1988, Fiorentina won 2-3 here in the first leg of the last 16, only for Napoli to go through after a 3-1 win in Florence. Napoli also won 2-1 in November 1990 on the way to winning that tie, then beat Fiorentina 1-0 in the January 2017 quarter-final.
The most recent meeting here is the one Fiorentina supporters remember. In January 2022 the round of 16 tie went to extra time before Fiorentina pulled clear to win 5-2, their heaviest cup win at the stadium. The sides also met in the 2014 final in Rome, which Napoli won 3-1, though that neutral-venue game sits outside the figures below. That 3 May 2014 final at the Stadio Olimpico gave Napoli the fifth of their six cup wins and still frames how both sets of supporters see this tie.
That balance is what makes the December tie distinctive. Across ten cup meetings at the stadium the goals are level at 13 apiece, Napoli have won four and lost only two, yet the last visit produced Fiorentina's most emphatic result. Add a single-leg format with extra time and penalties in reserve, and buyers can expect a tense, full stadium from the first whistle.
The figures below cover every Coppa Italia meeting at the stadium (San Paolo until 2020, now the Diego Armando Maradona) with Napoli as hosts. The 2014 final in Rome, ties played in Florence and Serie A meetings are excluded.

Read across the ten games and the margins are tight. Every Napoli win came by a single goal, four meetings ended level and only the 2022 tie produced a margin of more than one. Seven of the ten meetings came in the 1970s and 1980s, when the competition used group stages and two-legged rounds rather than today's single-leg ties.
