Buy AS Roma vs Lazio tickets for the 2026/27 Season, with the Serie A meeting scheduled for Sunday 18 April 2027 and kick-off listed for 20:00 local time at the Stadio Olimpico. The Derby della Capitale falls on matchday 32, deep into the run-in, when European places are on the line. Nothing in Rome divides the city like this fixture. For buyers, it is one of the most sought-after tickets in Italian football.

The Olimpico is home to both clubs. For this match AS Roma are the designated hosts. The stadium sits within the Foro Italico sports complex north of the city centre and holds around 70,600. On derby day it is split down the middle, with Roma's support in the Curva Sud and Lazio's in the Curva Nord.
Derby kick-off times are set with input from the local authorities, so the listed slot can change. Last season's meeting was moved to 12:00 on a Sunday after a dispute over scheduling, which shows how fluid the timing can be.
The derby is the one fixture both halves of the city plan their season around. The meeting in May 2026 was a complete sell-out, with more than 64,000 expected inside. Bragging rights last until the next derby. Supporters treat a ticket as a must rather than a maybe.
Lazio supporters fill the Curva Nord, which gives this fixture a visiting presence on a scale no other Roma home game can match. The choreography at both ends before kick-off is part of the spectacle. Many visitors say the pre-match display is worth the trip on its own.
Rome's status as a global destination adds another layer of demand. Visitors in the city for a long weekend often try to fit the derby into their plans. They compete for the same limited pool of seats as local supporters. That pressure is strongest for groups who want to sit together.
Roma are also back in the Champions League this season after qualifying through their 2025/26 league finish. That raises the profile of every home game at the Olimpico. A derby in April, with league places still at stake, sits at the very top of the calendar.
Supply is the problem. Season-ticket holders account for a large share of the home seats. A phased sale then gives members priority before general sale opens. By the time remaining tickets reach the public, the prime areas are usually gone.
Only if seats survive the presale. For recent home derbies, Roma ran a phased sale: first for certain season-ticket holders, then for subscribers and AS Roma Card holders at dedicated prices, then a general sale with a limit of four tickets per transaction. Each phase lasted only a few days.
Italian tickets are tied to the holder's details. Photo ID is needed to buy and to enter. For derby tickets bought by Serie A subscribers, name changes were not permitted in recent seasons. That makes the club route difficult for anyone outside the system.
Roma also operates a resale service for some subscribers, which opens a few days after the general sale starts. It helps regulars pass on seats they cannot use, but it sits inside the club's own ecosystem. Overseas buyers without an account cannot rely on it.
Lazio supporters face their own route, with the Curva Nord allocated through Lazio's channels. A Lazio fan without access to those channels has no straightforward way into the visiting end.
A verified resale marketplace is the practical alternative. Sellers list seats across the stadium, buyers see the sector before paying and there is no need for an AS Roma Card or Italian ticketing account. For international visitors, groups wanting seats together and fans who missed the presale, it is the realistic way in.
Resale also takes the guesswork out of timing. Instead of waiting for a short sale window, you can see live availability and choose the sector, row and quantity that suit your plans.
Five things drive the price of seats for this fixture. Location matters most, with central Tribuna Monte Mario seats carrying a clear premium over the ends. Demand is extreme for a derby. The phased sale also keeps supply on the open market tight.
Timing plays its part, as prices tend to firm up once the kick-off slot is confirmed. The 2026/27 Serie A run-in adds weight to any game with points at stake. Hospitality sits in its own bracket, with separate inclusions and pricing.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Sud / Distinti | £120 – £200 | Roma supporters on a tighter budget | Behind the goal or in the corners; Roma colours only |
| Tribuna Tevere standard | £160 – £260 | Couples, families and neutrals | Longside view opposite the main stand |
| Tribuna Monte Mario / central | £220 – £350+ | Buyers who want a classic halfway-line view | Main stand; limited supply in the central blocks |
| Premium seating | £300 – £480+ | Padded seats in the heart of the main stand | Often sold in pairs; look for any restricted-view note |
| Hospitality / VIP | £450 – £900+ | Corporate guests and special occasions | Price depends on lounge, catering format and seat location |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
For context, Roma's face values for an ordinary home game run from around €25 to €35 behind the goals and €45 to €100 in the main stands, with derby pricing set separately. The resale premium reflects how few derby tickets ever reach general sale, rather than any change in the seat itself.
Expect the market to move in phases. Early listings tend to be weighted towards hospitality and premium seats. Standard listings increase once club sale phases close and members know whether they can attend, then tighten again in the final fortnight.
The Olimpico is one continuous ring with four main sections: the Curva Sud, the Curva Nord, the Tribuna Monte Mario on the west side and the Tribuna Tevere opposite. The Distinti fill the corners between the ends and the stands. Study the Stadio Olimpico seating plan before you pick a listing, as sector choice decides both view and atmosphere.
An athletics track runs around the pitch, so the stands sit further from the action than at a purpose-built football ground. The trade-off is a clear, wide view from almost every seat.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Sud | Roma supporters who want to be in the thick of it | Lower to mid | Home of Roma's ultras; standing and singing all match; Roma colours only |
| Distinti Sud | Roma fans wanting atmosphere with a better angle | Mid | Corners next to the Curva Sud; close to the noise |
| Tribuna Tevere | Couples, families and neutrals | Mid to high | Longside view with family areas; a calmer setting |
| Tribuna Monte Mario | Buyers who want the main-stand view | High | Central blocks sell first; houses the premium and VIP areas |
| Distinti Nord | Buyers comfortable near the Lazio end | Mid | Close to the Curva Nord; check listing notes for derby restrictions |
| Curva Nord (Lazio sector) | Lazio supporters | Allocated through Lazio | Lazio colours belong here and nowhere else |
Neutral buyers and undecided fans are best placed in the Tribuna Tevere or the outer blocks of the Monte Mario. Wear neutral clothing, avoid both ends if you have no club connection and never wear Lazio colours in a Roma section. The full list of Stadio Olimpico tickets shows every event on sale at the ground this season.
Row choice matters as much as sector choice. Because of the athletics track, higher rows often give a better picture of the game than the front rows. Mid-to-upper rows near the halfway line are the sweet spot for many buyers.
The stands are covered by the roof added for the 1990 rebuild, which offers shelter whatever the weather. For a spring evening kick-off, that makes every sector comfortable, though the two ends remain the loudest and most intense parts of the ground.
Roma's hospitality is centred on the Tribuna Monte Mario, where premium seats, lounges and private spaces overlook the halfway line. On derby day, these packages offer a calmer way to experience one of Europe's most intense fixtures.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Premium Monte Mario seats | Pairs and small groups wanting comfort without a full package | Central main-stand seats with lounge access before kick-off and at half-time |
| Lounge with dining | Couples and celebration bookings | Seated dining and drinks before the match with a premium seat |
| Private boxes | Small corporate groups | A private space with catering and a direct view of the pitch |
| Bespoke corporate packages | Larger groups and client entertaining | Tailored catering and seating arrangements around the match |
Derby hospitality is among the first inventory to go each season, often well before standard seats appear on the open market. Smaller packages for two to four guests tend to sell first, so book early if you have a specific option in mind.
Hospitality also takes much of the stress out of the day. Separate entrances and a seat held for you mean less time in queues and more time to take in the pre-match displays.
The Monte Mario also gives hospitality guests a central view of both ends. From there you can watch the Curva Sud and Curva Nord choreography unfold at the same time, which is one of the great sights of Italian football.
How your tickets arrive depends on the seller and the listing. Read the delivery notes before you buy, as they tell you exactly what to expect and when.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | Whether the ticket arrives in an app or by email and whose name it carries |
| PDF e-ticket | That the barcode prints cleanly and the named holder matches the person attending |
| Ticket account transfer | Whether you need a club ticketing account to receive it and how far ahead it is sent |
| Paper ticket or collection | The courier or meeting point, the hand-over time and the contact name on the day |
Before setting off, read the listing notes again, bring valid photo ID and make sure your phone is fully charged if you are entering on a mobile ticket. Staff often check ID against the details registered to each ticket.
If a listing includes instructions about the name on the ticket, follow them closely. Derby tickets are tightly controlled. Getting the details right before matchday saves problems at the turnstile.
Plan to arrive well before kick-off. Derby security is heavy, with multiple checkpoints around the Foro Italico. The choreography starts before the teams come out. You will not want to miss it.
Glass, flares and large bags are not permitted. Stewards also search bags at the outer checkpoints. Travel light and keep your ID and ticket easy to reach, as checks can happen more than once on the way in.

Derby pricing rewards buyers who plan ahead and stay flexible. These habits consistently give buyers stronger value.
Start by deciding what kind of evening you want. A seat near the Curva Sud delivers noise and colour, while a raised Tevere or Monte Mario seat is better for following the game and watching both sets of choreography. Matching the ticket to the experience is the surest way to avoid overpaying.
Rome's two airports, Fiumicino and Ciampino, connect the city with most of Europe and beyond. From the centre, take Metro Line A to Flaminio and then the tram towards Piazza Mancini, crossing the Tiber on foot to the stadium. Alternatively, ride Line A to Ottaviano and take bus 32 or walk around 30 minutes.
From Roma Termini, the city's main station, Line A reaches Flaminio in a few stops. Allow at least an hour from the centre on derby day, as trams and buses fill up quickly.
The listed date and time can move once the league and local authorities confirm the slot, so book flexible travel where you can. Choose mobile or e-ticket listings if you are travelling so your tickets reach you wherever you are staying. Use the seats-together filter when booking for a group.
Planning a longer stay in Rome? This season's first derby, Lazio vs AS Roma, is scheduled for December 2026, with Lazio as the designated hosts at the same stadium.
Most visitors base themselves in the historic centre. Pubs and restaurants cluster around Ponte Milvio, the next bridge along from the stadium, though the area gets very busy on derby day. Many restaurants in the centre open late, which suits a post-match dinner.
The Foro Italico itself is worth a look before kick-off. The marble statues of the Stadio dei Marmi stand next door. The Tiber riverside path also makes a pleasant approach on foot. Leave enough time to enjoy it before the crowds build.
Rome has two clubs and one stadium. The derby is where that tension boils over, in a rivalry that dates back to Roma's founding in 1927. Both sides returned to a rebuilt Olimpico for the 1990/91 season after it was modernised for the 1990 World Cup. The first Roma home derby there, in April 1991, ended 1-1.
That draw set the tone for a cagey early decade, with the first four meetings in this period all drawn.
Lazio's strongest spell came in the mid to late 1990s, with away wins in 1995 and 1997. Roma answered with a run of 13 home derbies without defeat from April 1999 to March 2011, including a 4-1 win in November 1999 that still stands as one of their heaviest derby victories at home.
Lazio ended that run with a 2-1 win in March 2012. They won again in 2017 and 2022. Those three results are a reminder that home advantage counts for less in a derby where both sides call the stadium home.
The 2020s have belonged to Roma. A 3-0 win in March 2022 matched their biggest margin in the period. They have also won the last three home derbies without conceding.
What makes this fixture distinctive is the weight of every result. Thirty-six Roma home derbies at the Olimpico since 1991 have produced 17 home wins, 14 draws and five Lazio wins, but each one is remembered long after the table is settled.
For the April meeting, that history cuts both ways. Roma fans arrive confident after three straight home derby wins, while Lazio supporters know a single result can turn a season. Either way, the Olimpico will be full and loud from long before kick-off.
The figures below cover every Serie A derby at the Stadio Olimpico with AS Roma as designated hosts since the rebuilt stadium reopened for the 1990/91 season. Lazio home derbies at the same ground are a separate data set and are not included. Coppa Italia meetings, including cup finals at the Olimpico, are also excluded.
