Buy Palermo tickets for the 2026/27 Season and you are joining one of the largest crowds in Italian football outside Serie A. The Rosanero play their Serie B home games at the 36,365-capacity Stadio Renzo Barbera, in the shadow of Monte Pellegrino at the northern edge of the city, and draw crowds of more than 30,000 for high-demand games, numbers that would sit comfortably in the top flight.
Thousands trust 1BoxOffice
This is a club with a long Serie A history, three Coppa Italia finals and five seasons of European football, now owned by City Football Group and pushing to return to the top division. This guide covers prices, the abbonamento, where to sit, how Italian ticketing rules work and the story behind the pink and black, so you can plan a trip to Sicily with confidence.
Palermo sell tickets through the club's online ticket office and the Vivaticket network, including the SiamoAquile store at the stadium. Since December 2025 buyers have had to register with the club's digital ticketing system, and every ticket is issued in the holder's name, as Italian law requires. For a supporter in Palermo that works smoothly, but for a visitor from abroad it adds steps before a ticket can be bought.
Demand adds another layer. Season ticket sales for 2026/27 were capped at 17,000, after more than 16,500 were sold the previous season, so close to half the stadium is committed before a single match ticket goes on sale. For high-demand fixtures, such as visits from Sampdoria or a promotion rival, the Curve and Gradinata can sell out before kick-off.
The secondary market fills that gap. Listings on 1BoxOffice give you a way to compare seats across the Tribuna, Gradinata and Curve in one place, pay in your own currency and know your tickets are secured before you book flights to Sicily. It suits travelling supporters, groups planning a weekend in Palermo and anyone who would rather not work through the club's registration process in Italian.
Club channels remain the first stop for many local fans, and for a routine league game there are often seats available close to kick-off. For the matches that move fastest, or when you need certainty before you travel, the marketplace gives you choice the box office cannot.
1BoxOffice has been connecting football supporters with verified sellers since 2006. Every listing goes through the same checks, and every order is backed by the same guarantee, whether it is a single seat in the Tribuna or a group booking for a big night at the Renzo Barbera.
For supporters travelling from the UK or further afield, that matters. You can compare seats in one place, pay in your own currency and follow your order from checkout to delivery without relying on a box office queue in Palermo.
Palermo's support is the foundation of the club. Even in Serie B the Rosanero have repeatedly drawn the highest average crowd in the division, and the play-off semi-final against Catanzaro in May 2026 was watched by 33,286 at the Barbera. For a city of Palermo's size and passion, the stadium is the natural meeting point every other weekend.
Demand still varies from game to game. A midweek league fixture against a smaller club can usually be bought close to kick-off, while a handful of games each season sell out or come very close.
The lesson for buyers is simple. For a standard league game you can usually wait, but for a visit from one of the big names, a cup tie against Serie A opposition or a promotion run-in, it pays to secure seats as soon as the date is confirmed.
Palermo price single-match tickets by sector. In 2025/26 a full-price adult ticket ranged from €22 in the Curve to €103 in the Centralissima section of the Tribuna, roughly £18 to £87, with reduced prices for women, over-65s and under-16s and a separate under-14 ticket. The club sets prices for each match, so the most attractive fixtures can cost more.
The sector makes the most difference. The Curve behind the goals are the most affordable and the loudest, the Gradinata opposite the main stand sits in the middle of the range, and the covered Tribuna, especially the central sections, carries the highest prices. The opponent and the competition then decide how quickly each sector sells.
The 2026/27 season runs from August 2026 to May 2027, and resale prices across that window follow demand. A quiet midweek game may trade close to face value, while the top league fixtures, a Coppa Italia tie against a Serie A club or a play-off game can command a significant premium.
| Type of Ticket | Typical Price Range (GBP) |
|---|---|
| Serie B (standard fixtures) | £20 – £55 |
| Serie B (high-demand fixtures) | £40 – £110+ |
| Coppa Italia | £20 – £60 |
| Serie B play-offs | £50 – £150+ |
| Hospitality and VIP | £120 – £300+ |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift.
Yes. Palermo do not require a club membership for home tickets, but you do need to register with the club's digital ticketing system, and every ticket is issued in your name and checked against original photo ID at the turnstiles. The SiamoAquile Card, the club's fidelity card, can hold your tickets, but it is not required for a home match.
The card matters more for away games. Palermo supporters who live in the province of Palermo have needed the SiamoAquile Card to buy tickets for the away sector, while fans living elsewhere have not. For high-risk fixtures, the authorities can also restrict sales to residents of particular areas or close the away sector altogether.
For visitors, the challenge is the process rather than eligibility. Registration, name-based tickets and sale windows announced in Italian can make it difficult to buy before you arrive, which is why it pays to compare Palermo tickets on the secondary market and check the listing notes for the name and ID requirements before you pay.
The season ticket, or abbonamento, is central to Palermo's support. The 2026/27 campaign, launched in July 2026 under the slogan "A chi appartieni" (who do you belong to), kept prices unchanged for a third consecutive season and was capped at 17,000 to leave room for single-match sales.
Existing holders renew at lower prices than new buyers in the open sale, so loyalty is rewarded. The Curve are the most affordable option and the most popular with the ultras, while the Centralissima section of the Tribuna offers the most central seats at the top of the range.
| Sector | 2026/27 Adult Renewal (EUR) | Approximate GBP |
|---|---|---|
| Curva Nord and Curva Sud | EUR 198 | £166 |
| Gradinata Superiore | EUR 275 | £231 |
| Gradinata Inferiore | EUR 350 | £294 |
| Tribuna Laterale | EUR 550 | £462 |
| Tribuna Centrale | EUR 770 | £647 |
| Centralissima | EUR 1,155 | £970 |
New buyers in the open sale pay more, from around EUR 255 in the Curve. Prices are set by the club each season and may change.
The Renzo Barbera has four sides: the covered Tribuna along one touchline, the open Gradinata facing it, also known as the Tribuna Montepellegrino after the mountain behind it, and the two Curve behind the goals. The Curva Nord is the heart of the organised support, while the Curva Sud houses home fans and the enclosed away section.
| Sector | Best For | Price Bracket | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tribuna Centralissima and Centrale | Central views and comfort | Highest | The only covered stand, with the most central seats in the ground |
| Tribuna Laterale | A covered side view at a lower price | Higher | Shelter from sun and rain towards either end of the main stand |
| Gradinata (Inferiore and Superiore) | A full side view facing the Tribuna | Mid-range | Uncovered, with Monte Pellegrino behind; the upper tier is the lower-priced option |
| Curva Nord | Atmosphere | Lower | Home of the organised ultras, with flags, choreography and constant singing |
| Curva Sud | Behind-the-goal views | Lower | Home supporters alongside the separated away section |
| Settore ospiti (Curva Sud) | Visiting supporters | Set per match | Around 2,200 seats across two tiers, separated from home fans |
The Curva Nord sets the tone for the whole ground. Its groups prepare choreographies for big occasions, and the pink and black flags that cover the stand at kick-off are one of the sights of Italian football below Serie A. Sitting there means standing, singing and following the lead of the ultras for the full 90 minutes.
For a first visit, the Gradinata Inferiore gives a good balance of view and price, while the Tribuna Laterale adds shelter from the sun on early-season afternoons. If you want the full Palermo experience, look for seats in the Curva Nord, but remember that the ultras stand and sing throughout.
Palermo's away trips are long by any standard. From Sicily, almost every league fixture means a flight or a long journey across the Strait of Messina, but the Rosanero still take sizeable followings to the mainland for the bigger games.
| Topic | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Away allocation | Set by the host club for each match; the Modena away sector in 2024/25, for example, offered 3,200 seats at EUR 20 |
| SiamoAquile Card | Required for away-sector tickets by supporters resident in the province of Palermo; not required for fans living elsewhere |
| Restrictions | The authorities can limit sales to residents of certain areas or close the away sector for high-risk fixtures |
| Travel | Flights from Palermo and Trapani airports to northern and central Italy; the Strait of Messina crossing for trips to Calabria and Campania by road |
| ID | Tickets are issued in the holder's name and checked against original photo ID at the turnstiles |
Tickets sold for home sectors at away grounds are not for travelling supporters, and Italian clubs can refuse entry to visiting fans found in home areas, so always buy in the designated away sector if you are following Palermo.
The right seat depends on what you want from the day. Use this as a quick guide before you compare listings.
| Priority | Best Option | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Best atmosphere | Curva Nord | The organised ultras, choreography and non-stop singing from kick-off to the final whistle |
| Best view | Tribuna Centrale or Centralissima | Covered central seats with a clear line along the whole pitch |
| Family-friendly | Gradinata Inferiore | A full side view in a calmer part of the ground, with reduced prices for younger fans |
| Premium experience | Centralissima and hospitality | The top-priced seats in the covered Tribuna, close to the halfway line |
| Lower-priced option | Curva Sud or Gradinata Superiore | The most affordable seats, with a raised view from the upper Gradinata |
The stadium opened on 24 January 1932, and Palermo marked the occasion with a 5-1 win over Atalanta. It has carried several names since, from the Littorio in the fascist era to the Michele Marrone and then, from 1945, La Favorita, after the park that surrounds it. In September 2002 it was renamed in honour of Renzo Barbera, the club's president through much of the 1970s, though many supporters still call it La Favorita.
The ground was renovated for the 1990 World Cup, when it staged three group matches: the Netherlands against Egypt, the Republic of Ireland against Egypt and the Republic of Ireland against the Netherlands. Today it holds 36,365, making it one of the larger club stadiums in southern Italy. Its setting is striking, with the limestone mass of Monte Pellegrino rising behind the Gradinata and the Parco della Favorita on its doorstep.
A major change is planned. In July 2026 the city council approved an agreement with Palermo FC to redevelop the stadium, a project valued at several hundred million euros and linked to the city's bid to host matches at Euro 2032. Details and timings still depend on the final business plan and signing, so expect the ground to keep its current shape for the time being.
The atmosphere is the reason to come. The Curva Nord produces choreographies, flags and non-stop singing, and on big nights, such as the 2022 Serie C play-off final against Padova, when more than 34,000 watched Palermo win promotion, the noise rolls around all four sides. The stadium's record crowd for a football match, 35,872, came for a Serie A game against Sampdoria in May 2010.
The stadium sits on Viale del Fante, north of the city centre. Bus 101 runs from Palermo Centrale railway station and the city centre towards the stadium, and other lines, including the 107, also serve the area. The Imperatore Federico stop on the city's rail link is around a kilometre away, though services are limited, and on matchdays it is usually easiest to take the bus or a taxi and allow plenty of time for traffic.
Palermo itself is one of Italy's most rewarding cities to visit. The Arab-Norman monuments, including the Cathedral and the Palatine Chapel, are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the markets of Ballarò and the Vucciria are famous for street food. Mondello beach is a short ride from the stadium for anyone visiting in the warmer months.
Many supporters meet in the city centre or around Piazza Vittorio Veneto, known locally as the Statua, before heading to the ground. Street food is part of the matchday routine, and the approach through the Favorita area builds the anticipation before kick-off.
Premium seating at the Renzo Barbera is concentrated in the covered Tribuna, with the Centralissima section at the top of the range. These are the most central seats in the ground, sheltered from the Sicilian sun, and they are popular with business guests and supporters marking a special occasion.
Hospitality options at the stadium are more limited than at many Serie A grounds, and availability for high-demand games can be tight. Listings on 1BoxOffice show exactly what each package includes before you pay.
| Package | What It Includes | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Centralissima seat | A covered central seat in the Tribuna | £80 – £150 |
| Tribuna Centrale | Covered seat near the halfway line | £50 – £110 |
| Hospitality package | Premium seat with matchday catering where available | £120 – £300+ |
| Group booking | Seats together for business or private groups | Priced on request |
Hospitality prices vary more than standard seats and may change between matches and seasons.
Palermo is one of the easier places in southern Italy to build a football weekend around. The city has good air links, a compact historic centre and plenty to do on the days either side of a match, and the Renzo Barbera is within easy reach of most places visitors stay.
Falcone Borsellino airport, at Punta Raisi on the coast west of the city, has flights from across Italy and Europe, including direct services from several UK airports, with more routes in the summer. From the airport, trains and airport buses run into the centre, and taxis are widely available. Visitors arriving by sea can take overnight ferries from Naples, Genoa and other mainland ports.
Serie B fixtures are scheduled across Friday, Saturday, Sunday and occasionally midweek, and exact dates and kick-off times are confirmed by the league a few weeks ahead. If you are flying in specifically for a game, it is safest to book flexible travel or wait until the round has been confirmed before buying anything you cannot change.
The historic centre, around Via Maqueda, Via Roma and the Quattro Canti, puts you close to restaurants, markets and the main sights, with buses and taxis to the stadium. The Libertà district, between the centre and the stadium, is a quieter option with good transport links, and Mondello offers a beach base a short ride from the ground.
Palermo is warm for much of the season, and early-autumn and late-spring afternoons can be very hot in the uncovered sectors. Bring water, sun protection and a hat if you are sitting in the Curve or the Gradinata, or choose the covered Tribuna for an afternoon kick-off.
Ordering through 1BoxOffice takes a few minutes once you know which match you want. The process is the same for a league game at the Renzo Barbera, a Coppa Italia tie or a trip to follow the Rosanero away from home.
Step1
Find your fixture
Search for the match you want or use the fixture list at the end of this guide. Each event shows the competition, venue and kick-off time once the league has confirmed it.
Step2
Create an account or log in
New buyers can create an account in a couple of minutes, which keeps your order, delivery updates and contact details in one place. Returning customers simply log in.
Step3
Compare the listings
Filter by stand, sector, quantity and price. Listings show where the seats are in the ground, so you can weigh a sideline view against a place behind the goal.
Step4
Read the listing notes
Check any notes on seating together, age restrictions, name or ID requirements and the expected delivery date. Italian tickets are personal, so these details matter for every sector.
Step5
Choose your quantity
Select how many seats you need. If you are buying for a group, pick a listing that confirms the seats are together rather than splitting the order across sellers.
Step6
Review your order
Confirm the match, date, sector, quantity, delivery method and total price, including fees, before you continue to payment.
Step7
Complete secure payment
Pay in your preferred currency through the encrypted checkout. A confirmation email follows straight away with your order reference.
Step8
Follow your delivery
Use your order reference to track order progress until the tickets arrive, and keep the confirmation email to hand on matchday.
Tickets for Italian fixtures are issued in the name of the holder and are often released close to matchday, so a delivery date in the final days before kick-off is normal rather than a warning sign. If the league moves a match for television, your order stays attached to the rescheduled game.
Most Palermo home games have seats available until close to kick-off. These are the exceptions, where waiting can mean missing out.
| Fixture Type | Why It Moves Fast |
|---|---|
| Sampdoria and former Serie A clubs | Big names such as Sampdoria, Hellas Verona and Empoli draw some of the largest crowds of the Serie B season |
| Promotion rivals | Games against the clubs competing for the top places carry extra weight in the second half of the season |
| Serie B play-offs | Home play-off ties have drawn more than 33,000, and tickets go on sale at very short notice |
| Coppa Italia ties against Serie A clubs | A home draw against top-flight opposition is a rare chance to see Palermo test themselves against Serie A |
| Season openers and the final home game | The first and last home games of the season bring out supporters who do not attend every week |
With 38 league rounds and 19 home games, each opponent visits the Renzo Barbera once in the league season, so the big-name visits are one-off chances rather than fixtures you can catch later.
The delivery method depends on how the seller holds the tickets, and it is always shown on the listing before you pay.
Always check the listing notes for the delivery method and expected date, and contact customer support straight away if anything on your confirmation does not match what you ordered.
A few minutes of checking before you pay saves problems on matchday. These are the questions worth answering for any Palermo game.
Check whether the kick-off on the listing has been fixed by the league. Your ticket stays valid if the match is moved within the same round, but your flights may not, so factor that in before booking non-refundable travel.
Italian tickets are personal and checked against photo ID. Read the listing notes carefully for how the ticket holder's details are handled, and carry the ID you need on matchday.
Look at the sector as well as the price. Home supporters should avoid the away section in the Curva Sud, and anyone who wants to sit rather than stand should think twice about the Curva Nord. If you are buying for a group, choose a listing that confirms the seats are together.
Check the delivery method and the expected delivery date on the listing. Delivery close to matchday is normal for Italian fixtures, and if anything on your confirmation looks wrong, contact customer support straight away rather than waiting until the day of the game.
Matchday entry in Italy is more formal than in many countries, because tickets are personal and checked against ID. A little preparation makes the process quick.
Aim to reach the stadium at least an hour before kick-off for a standard league game and earlier for a sell-out, as security checks and ID controls take time. Traffic around Viale del Fante builds in the final hour, so allow extra time if you are travelling by bus or taxi.
Carry original photo ID, such as a passport, which is required to enter and must match the name on the ticket. If your ticket is on your phone, keep the battery charged and the ticket saved for offline use, and keep any confirmation that shows the ticket holder's details to hand.
Travel light, as large bags may be refused and there is no guarantee of storage at the stadium. Pyrotechnics, glass, bottles with caps and dangerous items are prohibited under Italian stadium rules, and stewards and police carry out searches at the entrances. A small bag with essentials is the safest option.

Few Italian clubs have lived through as many ups and downs as Palermo. Founded with the help of Palermo's English community at the turn of the 20th century, the club has played in every division from Serie A to Serie D, been expelled from professional football twice and rebuilt itself each time on the strength of its support.
The club was founded in 1900 by Ignazio Majo Pagano, who had discovered football while studying in England, with the support of the English community in Palermo, hence the name Anglo-Palermitan. Pink and black, the colours that give the club its nickname, were adopted in 1907, and the name went through several changes in the decades that followed. The Serie B title in 1931/32 brought Palermo into Serie A for the first time, and the new stadium at the Favorita opened in the same season.
The post-war decades saw Palermo move between Serie A and Serie B, with second-tier titles in 1947/48 and 1967/68. The 1970s brought the club's first national finals: in 1974 Palermo drew 1-1 with Bologna in the Coppa Italia final in Rome before losing on penalties, and in 1979 they lost 2-1 to Juventus after extra time. Financial trouble then caught up with the club, and in September 1986 it was expelled by the Italian federation. A new club was formed in January 1987 and started again in Serie C2, winning the division at the first attempt.
The climb back took time, with a Serie C1 title in 1992/93 and another in 2000/01. Maurizio Zamparini bought the club in 2002, and in 2003/04 Palermo won Serie B with Luca Toni scoring 30 league goals, returning to Serie A for the first time in more than three decades. What followed was the club's golden era: fifth-place finishes in 2005/06, 2006/07 and 2009/10, five European campaigns, and four Palermo players, Andrea Barzagli, Simone Barone, Fabio Grosso and Cristian Zaccardo, lifting the 2006 World Cup with Italy.
The squads of those years featured some of the most gifted players in Italian football, among them Edinson Cavani, Javier Pastore, Fabrizio Miccoli and, later, Paulo Dybala. In 2011 Palermo reached a third Coppa Italia final, losing 3-1 to Inter at the Olimpico. Relegation came in 2013, but the club bounced straight back as Serie B champions in 2013/14 with 86 points, before going down again in 2017, the year Zamparini stepped down as chairman.
In July 2019 Palermo were excluded from Serie B because of financial problems, and a new club restarted in Serie D under president Dario Mirri. It won the division at the first attempt in a season cut short by the pandemic, took the name Palermo Football Club in 2020 and, in 2022, won promotion from Serie C through the play-offs, beating Padova 1-0 home and away in the final, with more than 34,000 at the Barbera for the second leg.
Weeks later, City Football Group, the owners of Manchester City, took majority control. Palermo have since established themselves in Serie B, reaching the play-offs in 2024, 2025 and 2026, when they finished fourth with 72 points before losing the semi-final to Catanzaro. With a new stadium deal approved and crowds among the largest in the division, the club's ambition is clear: a return to Serie A.
The cups have offered a different kind of test. In the 2026/27 Coppa Italia, Palermo beat Serie A side Lecce 2-0 and then Mantova at the Barbera in the opening rounds, setting up a round-of-16 tie away at Bologna, the club that beat them in the 1974 final. For supporters, a run against top-flight opposition is a reminder of where the club believes it belongs.
Palermo's history is full of players who arrived young, made their names in pink and black and went on to some of Europe's leading clubs, alongside the local heroes who stayed. These are the names supporters still sing about.
| Name | Role | Contribution | Milestones |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fabrizio Miccoli | Forward | The club's all-time leading scorer and one of the defining figures of the Zamparini era. His goals and flair made him a hero in the Curva Nord. | 81 goals in all competitions; Serie A club records for goals and appearances |
| Luca Toni | Forward | Fired Palermo back to Serie A with a remarkable season in Serie B. He went on to win the 2006 World Cup after leaving the club. | 30 league goals in 2003/04; 51 Palermo goals in total |
| Matteo Brunori | Forward | Led the line during the climb from Serie C, scoring in the 2022 play-off final against Padova. He sits second on the club's all-time scoring list. | 76 goals for the club |
| Edinson Cavani | Forward | Arrived from Uruguay as a teenager and developed into one of Europe's most feared strikers. He left for Napoli in 2010. | 37 goals for Palermo |
| Roberto Biffi | Defender | A long-serving defender whose appearance total remains a club record. Few players have matched his commitment to the Rosanero. | 373 appearances in all competitions |
| Fabio Grosso | Defender | One of four Palermo players in Italy's 2006 World Cup-winning squad. He scored in the semi-final and the decisive penalty in the final. | 2006 World Cup winner |
| Andrea Barzagli | Defender | A composed centre-back who won the 2006 World Cup while at Palermo. He later became a cornerstone of Juventus' defence. | 2006 World Cup winner |
Other names belong in the story too. Javier Pastore and Paulo Dybala both began their European careers in Palermo before moving to Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus, Simone Barone and Cristian Zaccardo completed the 2006 World Cup quartet, and Salvatore Sirigu and Franco Brienza are remembered from the Serie A years.
Palermo have never won a major national trophy, but they have reached three Coppa Italia finals and won the second tier five times. The list reflects a club that has rebuilt itself again and again.
| Competition | Titles or Best Result | Years |
|---|---|---|
| Serie B | 5 titles | 1931/32, 1947/48, 1967/68, 2003/04, 2013/14 |
| Serie C1 | 2 titles | 1992/93, 2000/01 |
| Serie C2 | 1 title | 1987/88 |
| Serie D | 1 title | 2019/20 |
| Coppa Italia Serie C | 1 title | 1992/93 |
| Coppa Italia | Runners-up three times | 1974, 1979, 2011 |
| Serie A | Fifth place (best finish) | 2005/06, 2006/07, 2009/10 |
The 2005/06 fifth place came after the Calciopoli verdicts reshuffled the table, while the 2006/07 and 2009/10 finishes were earned on the pitch.
Palermo's rivalries are rooted in Sicily. The island has produced several professional clubs, and the meetings between them carry a weight that goes well beyond the league table, alongside the fixtures against the clubs that have shared Palermo's journey through the divisions.
The Derby di Sicilia against Catania is Palermo's defining fixture. The clubs first met in a cup tie on Christmas Day 1935, and across more than 80 meetings Palermo have the better record. Palermo won 5-0 in Serie B in April 2004, before the Serie A derbies of 2006 to 2013 took the rivalry to its peak, but with Catania in Serie C for 2026/27 there is no league meeting this season, and the fixture returns only when the clubs share a division.
Messina, on the north-eastern tip of the island, are Palermo's oldest Sicilian opponents, with the first derby played in 1901 and won 3-2 by Palermo. The rivalry is less intense than the one with Catania, but it remains part of the island's football history.
In Serie B, meetings with southern clubs such as Catanzaro, Avellino, Benevento and Juve Stabia carry an extra edge. Catanzaro ended Palermo's promotion hopes in the 2026 play-off semi-final, and the authorities have at times restricted visiting supporters for these fixtures, which shows how seriously they are taken.
Palermo's first UEFA Cup campaign in 2005/06 ended against Schalke 04. After winning their group and knocking out Slavia Prague, the Rosanero lost 3-1 on aggregate to the German side, but the run showed Palermo could compete in Europe.
Slavia Prague were Palermo's first knockout victims in Europe, beaten in the 2005/06 UEFA Cup on the way to the meeting with Schalke. The tie remains one of the high points of the club's five European campaigns.
These are the campaigns that define the modern Rosanero, from the return to Serie A to the rebirth after 2019.
| Season | Summary |
|---|---|
| 2003/04 | Serie B champions under Francesco Guidolin, who replaced Silvio Baldini in January. Luca Toni scored 30 league goals. Palermo returned to Serie A for the first time in more than 30 years. |
| 2005/06 | A first European campaign, with Palermo winning their UEFA Cup group and beating Slavia Prague before losing to Schalke. Fifth place came after the Calciopoli verdicts. Four Palermo players won the World Cup that summer. |
| 2009/10 | Fifth in Serie A, with Edinson Cavani and Fabrizio Miccoli leading the attack. The club's record crowd of 35,872 watched the game against Sampdoria in May. It earned another European campaign. |
| 2010/11 | A third Coppa Italia final, lost 3-1 to Inter at the Olimpico. Javier Pastore was at the peak of his Palermo career. It remains the club's most recent major final. |
| 2013/14 | Serie B champions with 86 points, a year after relegation. The club returned to Serie A at the first attempt. It was the fifth second-tier title in the club's history. |
| 2019/20 | Serie D champions after the club was excluded from Serie B in 2019 and refounded. The season was cut short by the pandemic. It began the climb back through the divisions. |
| 2021/22 | Promotion from Serie C through the play-offs under Silvio Baldini, beating Padova 1-0 home and away in the final. More than 34,000 watched the second leg. City Football Group took over weeks later. |
| 2025/26 | Fourth in Serie B with 72 points under Filippo Inzaghi. Palermo lost the play-off semi-final 3-2 on aggregate to Catanzaro. The second leg drew 33,286 to the Barbera. |
Palermo's records reflect a club with a long top-flight history and a passionate support. These are the figures supporters quote most often.
