Buy Fiorentina vs Genoa tickets for the 2026/27 Season and secure your seat at the Stadio Artemio Franchi on Sunday 21 March 2027, with kick-off currently listed at 16:00 UK time (17:00 in Florence). Lega Serie A confirms broadcast slots closer to the weekend, so the time can still move. Genoa have not won a Serie A match in Florence since March 1977. Their supporters arrive every year hoping this is the season that changes.

Seats at Fiorentina home matches are tighter than usual because the Franchi is midway through a major rebuild. With the Curva Fiesole closed for the 2026/27 season and capacity running at roughly 25,000 instead of the usual 43,000, every sale window is competitive.
This guide covers what seats cost, where to sit in a stadium under construction, how the club's card system works and every Serie A meeting between the sides at the Franchi since 1932. Use it to pick your seat, whether you are a Viola regular, a Genoa supporter or a visitor building a football weekend around Florence.
Capacity is the first driver. Works began in 2024, the Curva Fiesole has been closed since and its replacement is not expected to open until August 2027. With roughly half the stadium available, the season ticket base and the club's card holders take most of what remains before general sale.
The calendar adds pull. Fiorentina were founded in August 1926, and the 2026/27 season is the club's centenary campaign, which has lifted interest among supporters in Florence and abroad. A Sunday afternoon kick-off in late March, as the season starts to decide itself, suits visitors who want a long weekend in the city.
Genoa bring a following of their own. Italy's oldest club travel well, Genoa is a little over 200 kilometres away and the rossoblù support treats the trip to Florence as one of the closer away days of the season. Away allocations at the Franchi have been reduced or suspended for some matches during the works, which pushes many travelling fans towards the resale market.
Then there is the record. Fiorentina are unbeaten in their last 27 Serie A home meetings with Genoa, but eight of the last nine at the Franchi have produced a draw or a narrow result, including the goalless draw last May. Home fans expect three points. Genoa fans expect to make it difficult.
There is also a sense of timing about this season. With the new Curva Fiesole due to open in August 2027 and further phases planned after that, 2026/27 is one of the last campaigns played in a half-built Franchi. For visitors, that means a smaller, closer crowd and fewer seats to go round.
Partly. Fiorentina sell single-match tickets through the club's own channels and its ticketing partners, but the first window for most matches goes to holders of the club's InViola Premium Card. General sale follows, with matchday sales only if seats remain.
For most home sectors, the club has required the card during the early phases, with exceptions for the VIP and premium tribune areas. That means a casual buyer arriving at general sale is choosing from what card holders and season ticket holders have left, in a stadium already running at reduced capacity.
Season tickets for 2026/27 start at €290 in the Curva Ferrovia and rise to around €2,900 in the Tribuna VIP. In recent campaigns, renewals have had priority, followed by former holders and then new buyers, which leaves very little for anyone joining late.
Genoa supporters face their own restrictions. Sales in the away sector are set match by match with the authorities and can be limited by residence or not opened at all. For buyers without a card, overseas visitors and Genoa fans who miss out, the resale marketplace is the practical route, and the listing shows the sector before you pay.
If seats do remain, the club sells them through its website, the Fiorentina Point box office and partner outlets right up to matchday. In practice, a centenary season and a stadium at half capacity make that a gamble for anyone travelling from abroad.
Five factors shape the price. Seat location matters most, with central Tribuna seats well above the curve. Demand follows, driven by the reduced capacity and the centenary season. Fixture timing, competition context in the 2026/27 Season and the hospitality tier complete the picture.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Ferrovia and upper ends (less central) | £48 – £75 | Budget-conscious buyers | Behind the goal, close to the home support during the works |
| Maratona (longside standard) | £60 – £100 | Neutrals and first-time visitors | Side-on view from the stand under the Marathon Tower |
| Tribuna laterale (central side) | £80 – £130+ | Fans wanting a better angle | Main stand side sections with a strong view of the pitch |
| Tribuna VIP (premium seating) | £230 – £330+ | Buyers prioritising comfort and central views | Club face value for these seats ran from €272 to €368 for a top fixture in 2025/26 |
| Hospitality / VIP | £300 – £600+ | Corporate guests and special occasions | Lounge or box access with catering and premium seating |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
For context, club prices for a high-demand match in 2025/26 ran from about €28 to €115 in the standard sectors. The gap with resale reflects access rather than the seat itself, because those face-value tickets go to card holders first.
Expect two price moves. The first comes when Lega Serie A fixes the kick-off slot and travelling buyers commit. The second arrives in the final week, once the club's own sale closes and the remaining listings start to thin.
The Franchi is a listed 1930s concrete ground famous for its Marathon Tower and cantilevered main stand roof, now being rebuilt in phases with the club still playing at home. Which sectors are open matters as much as which stand you prefer. For block-level detail, the Franchi seating plan shows how the stadium is laid out.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Ferrovia | Committed home supporters | Lower, rarely on resale | The temporary home of the Fiesole's ultras while their curve is rebuilt; loud, standing and packed |
| Curva Fiesole | Not available this season | Closed | Being rebuilt as a covered curve, with opening expected in August 2027 |
| Maratona | Neutrals and families wanting a side-on view | Mid | The long stand opposite the main stand, with sections reopened during the works |
| Tribuna (main stand) | Premium buyers and hospitality guests | Upper to top | Under the famous roof, with the Tribuna Autorità and VIP seats at its heart |
| Tribuna laterale | Couples and small groups | Mid to upper | Side sections of the main stand; part of this area has been closed during the works |
| Away sector | Genoa supporters | Lower, sold through Genoa's routes | Location and size are set with the authorities and have changed during the rebuild. Red and blue belong here only; avoid Genoa colours elsewhere |
Neutral buyers and undecided fans should start with the Maratona. It gives the most balanced view for the price and keeps you away from the home curve. If you want the classic Franchi experience under the main stand roof, the Stadio Artemio Franchi Tribuna is worth the step up.
Genoa fans who end up in home sectors through resale should keep it low-key. Leave the shirt under a jacket, stay seated if Genoa score and let stewards see a calm supporter. Families are better placed in the Maratona or Tribuna laterale, well away from the Ferrovia.
Because the works move season by season, always match the sector name on your listing to the current layout. A seat described as "Fiesole" or "Maratona nord" may not exist in the form it did a few years ago.
Cover is limited at the Franchi. The main stand sits under its famous roof and parts of the Maratona are covered, but the curves are open to the weather until the rebuild is finished. For a March afternoon, the Tribuna is the most comfortable choice if rain is forecast.
Fiorentina's corporate hospitality is built around the main stand and its 1930s foyer, with a marble staircase that is part of the experience. Packages include a dedicated welcome service plus catering and drinks. Parking can be reserved with some products. The Vallepicciola Wine Club, opened in 2024, added a new lounge with a strong Tuscan identity.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Tribuna VIP seat | Couples and small groups | Premium central seating in the main stand without a full dining package |
| Vallepicciola Wine Club | Food and wine lovers | A 150-seat lounge opened in 2024, serving Tuscan wines before the match |
| Tribuna Autorità | Business guests | Gourmet catering in the historic foyer and seats at the heart of the main stand |
| Sky Box | Corporate parties and private groups | A private lounge for up to ten guests with panoramic windows and a direct view of the pitch |
Inclusions vary by listing, so confirm three details before booking: when the lounge opens, where the seat sits in the Tribuna and whether drinks run through the match. A 17:00 local kick-off leaves time for lunch in the centre first, which can make a Tribuna VIP seat plus a long Tuscan lunch stronger value than a full package.
Hospitality suits two kinds of buyer at this match: corporate groups hosting clients and visitors marking a special trip to Florence in the club's centenary season. For both, the appeal is certainty, a central seat and a relaxed afternoon in a stadium where general tickets are scarce.
Serie A tickets are named and increasingly digital, and resale listings vary in how and when they arrive. The delivery method decides when you can relax about the trip, so read it before you buy. Allow extra time if the listing needs a change of holder name.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | Which app the ticket arrives in, when it is transferred and whether the holder name is updated to yours |
| E-ticket (PDF) | Whether the barcode can be printed or must be shown on a phone, and the name printed on it |
| Paper ticket | The courier window, delivery address and tracking reference |
| Collection in Florence | The meeting point, handover time and the ID you need to bring |
Read the listing notes before you pay, especially anything about the holder's name or a change of user. Bring valid photo ID, because Italian tickets are named and stewards check documents at the turnstiles. If your ticket is on your phone, charge it fully, save it offline and carry a power bank.
The Franchi sits in the Campo di Marte district, a short walk from Firenze Campo di Marte station and roughly half an hour on foot from the historic centre. Aim to arrive at least 45 minutes before kick-off, as security checks and the works around the stadium slow entry in the final half hour.
After the match, trains from Campo di Marte back to the centre fill quickly, so walking towards the historic centre is often faster. Genoa fans travelling by road should follow police directions to the away parking and entrance, which can change during the works.

Florence's own airport is small, so many overseas visitors fly into Pisa or Bologna and continue by train, a journey of roughly an hour from Pisa and less from Bologna on the high-speed line, while Florence's own airport is linked to the city centre by tram. Choose a delivery method that suits international travel, such as a mobile ticket or a collection point in Florence, and request seats together at checkout if you are travelling as a group. Serie A kick-off times are set only a few weeks ahead, so book flexible flights and hotels until the slot is fixed. A Bologna arrival also opens up a second match, with Bologna a short high-speed train ride away.
Genoa supporters travelling from abroad should remember that away tickets come through their club, and that away sector sales at the Franchi have been restricted at times during the works. Resale is often the only realistic route for overseas fans. If you want to see the sides at the other end of the country too, the Genoa vs Fiorentina fixture at the Ferraris is listed separately.
Fiorentina and Genoa first met in Serie A at the Franchi in February 1932, a 2-2 draw in the stadium's first full season. The early decades belonged to the hosts: from 1932 to 1965 Fiorentina won 19 of 25 home meetings, including a 7-1 in December 1958 and two 5-0 wins in the early 1960s. Genoa won only twice in that period, both by 2-1 in the late 1930s.
The modern fixture is tighter. Genoa's last win in Florence came in March 1977, and since then Fiorentina have gone 27 Serie A home meetings unbeaten, yet 15 of the 29 meetings since 1974 have ended level. Nine have finished goalless, including the final day of 2018/19, when a draw kept both clubs in Serie A. Genoa, founded in 1893 and based at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, still bring that history with them to Florence.
What makes this fixture distinctive is the gap between the record and the feel of the matches. Fiorentina rarely lose it, but Genoa rarely make it easy, and draws have become the default lately: seven in the last nine meetings. For buyers, that means a home side chasing a win in front of a reduced, intense crowd. A Genoa win would end a run that stretches back to 1977.

Fiorentina have kept 26 clean sheets in those 54 meetings and failed to score only nine times, every one of them a goalless draw. Both sides have scored in 28 matches, so the fixture swings between open games and stalemates. Nine of those 54 meetings have finished 0-0, and all nine have come since 1974.

The record splits into two eras. Between 1932 and 1965 Fiorentina won 19 of 25 home meetings. Since 1974, they have won 13 of 29 with 15 draws, and Genoa have won just once. The visitors' problem is finding a way to win, and that has not happened in Florence for almost half a century.
Visiting supporters are placed in a segregated away sector agreed with the authorities, and its size and position have changed during the rebuild. Tickets for it are released through Genoa's own channels.
Early is safer for central and adjacent seats, because the reduced capacity and card-holder presales leave little for general sale. Waiting rarely pays off in a centenary season.
It is Fiorentina's supporter card, and holders get the first window to buy single-match tickets for most home sectors. A resale listing removes the need to apply for one.
No, it is closed for rebuilding during 2026/27 and is expected to reopen as a covered curve in August 2027. The home ultras have moved to the Curva Ferrovia in the meantime.
Choose a listing that states the seats are together, as those are sold as a block. Larger groups usually find the most choice in the Maratona.
