Buy Fiorentina vs Udinese tickets for the 2026/27 Season, with the Serie A fixture scheduled for Sunday 7 February 2027 at 16:00 local time (15:00 UK) at the Stadio Artemio Franchi. The league publishes confirmed kick-off times in blocks a few weeks ahead, so treat the slot as provisional until then. What will not change is the squeeze on seats: the Franchi is a working building site in the club's centenary season, and capacity is roughly half of what the stadium was built to hold.

That makes a winter Sunday against Udinese a harder ticket than it looks on paper. Fiorentina were founded in 1926 and are marking their hundredth year in a stadium where the nominal capacity of 43,147 has been cut to around 24,800 while the renovation runs. Season-ticket holders fill much of what remains, and single-match sales for a home game rarely last long.
There is also a score to carry into this one. The last league meeting in Florence, in December 2025, finished 5-1 to Fiorentina and gave a struggling side its first league win of that season. The visitors have beaten Fiorentina at the Franchi only four times since 1995, and home fans expect the pattern to hold.
The renovation is the main reason. Works began in 2024 to modernise Pier Luigi Nervi's 1931 stadium for the future, and for the 2024/25 season the prefecture set capacity at 24,786 gross, around 22,000 once buffer zones and restricted views are taken out. The new Curva Fiesole is expected to reopen early in 2027 once testing and approvals are complete, but capacity will stay reduced until the full project is finished later in the decade.
Demand has not dropped to match. Florence treats the club as part of the city, and attendances held up even through a difficult 2025/26 season that ended in 15th place. Udinese are not a marquee opponent in the way Juventus or Inter are, but at a ground running at half capacity even a mid-table date sells through, because there are simply fewer seats to go round.
Visiting supporters add little pressure on the home sectors. Udine is around four hours from Florence by road and the away allocation in Serie A has been small and often restricted during the works. The pressure comes almost entirely from local fans, visitors to Florence and neutral buyers who want to see the Franchi before the rebuild changes it for good.
The calendar helps too. An early February Sunday sits in the quieter part of the tourist year, when hotels are easier to book and a weekend in Florence costs less than in spring. That pulls in overseas buyers who combine the match with a city break, and they tend to buy early to secure central seats.
Finally, the centenary itself is a draw. Fiorentina are celebrating a hundred years throughout 2026/27, and supporters who drifted away during the difficult 2025/26 campaign have a clear reason to come back. Every home match this season carries a little of that anniversary feeling, and it keeps demand steady even for fixtures that would once have been easy to get into.
Yes, but through the club it takes timing and a fidelity card. Season-ticket holders have first claim on their seats, and during the renovation the club has had to reallocate many of them as stands closed and reopened. Holders of the club's InViola card get a presale window before general sale, and for a reduced-capacity ground that window is often where most single-match seats go.
General sale opens close to the fixture, which is a problem for anyone booking flights and hotels months ahead. Tickets in Italy are also personalised, with the holder's name printed on them and matched against photo ID at the turnstile, so buying informally from a friend is not straightforward.
The marketplace route solves both problems. Verified sellers list seats well in advance, and Fiorentina's own change-of-user process lets a ticket be reassigned to the buyer's name. You choose the sector, confirm the delivery method and complete the purchase in one go, with no presale window to watch.
Udinese supporters have their own channel: away tickets are sold through the visiting club, usually requiring the club's fidelity card and subject to any limits the authorities set for the specific match. If you follow Udinese and cannot access that allocation, avoid home sectors in club colours and look at the neutral seating described below.
For resale buyers, the practical point is that the name on the ticket must match the person using it. A reputable listing will explain whether the ticket is reissued through the club's change-of-user service or delivered already in your name, and you should not buy a seat where that step is unclear.
Five factors shape the price of this match in the 2026/27 season. Seat location comes first, with the covered central Tribuna at the top of the range. Demand comes next, and at a half-capacity Franchi it is higher than the opponent alone would suggest.
Timing matters, as listings usually firm up once the league confirms the kick-off slot. The competition context keeps prices below those for Juventus, Inter or Milan, since this is a standard Serie A fixture rather than a marquee date. Hospitality then sits in a separate bracket, with far fewer packages available than before the works began.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home curva | £45 – £80 | Atmosphere seekers | Organised home support, currently housed in the Curva Ferrovia. Uncovered. |
| Maratona | £55 – £100 | Value on the long side | Full view of the pitch beneath the 70-metre Marathon Tower. |
| Tribuna laterale | £75 – £140 | First-time visitors | Main stand away from the halfway line, largely under Nervi's roof. |
| Tribuna centrale | £110 – £200+ | Buyers who want the halfway line | Covered central seating with the strongest sightlines in the ground. |
| Hospitality / VIP | £280 – £950+ | Corporate guests and special occasions | Lounge packages in the central Tribuna, limited during the works. |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Weather is part of the value calculation in February. Much of the Franchi is still uncovered until the new Curva Fiesole opens, and a wet Tuscan Sunday makes a covered Tribuna seat worth more than its view alone. If you are travelling from abroad, paying the premium for cover is often the better decision.
Face value for a standard league match at the Franchi has been modest by the standards of the big clubs, which is why the gap between club prices and resale prices can look wide. The difference reflects how few seats reach open sale during the works rather than any change in the club's own pricing.
The renovation has redrawn the map of the stadium. The organised home support moved from the Curva Fiesole to the Curva Ferrovia in August 2024, parts of the Maratona have been relocated or closed and the visiting sector has changed position with the works. The Stadio Artemio Franchi seating plan shows the sectors as listed, so match your seat against it before you buy.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Ferrovia (home curva) | Home fans who want noise | Lower | Temporary home of the organised Viola support. Fiorentina colours only; uncovered. |
| Maratona | Value and a long-side view | Lower to mid | Opposite the main stand, beneath the tower. Parts have been reconfigured during the works. |
| Tribuna laterale | Covered seats on a budget | Mid | Main stand either side of centre, mostly beneath the cantilevered roof. |
| Tribuna centrale | Neutral buyers and first visits | Upper | Central, covered and furthest from both sets of supporters. |
| Curva Fiesole (new) | Home fans once reopened | Lower to mid | Rebuilt and roofed; expected back in use in early 2027 after testing and approvals. |
| Visitors' sector | Udinese supporters | Lower | Small segregated section whose size and position are set for each match during the works. Udinese colours only here. |
Neutral buyers and anyone undecided should aim for the Tribuna. It is covered, central and away from both the home curva and the visitors, and it puts you under one of the great pieces of engineering in world football. To compare every live listing across the open sectors, the Stadio Artemio Franchi tickets selection brings them together by area and price.
One point to watch closely: if the new Curva Fiesole reopens before this match, the works move to the other end of the ground, closing the Curva Ferrovia, half of the Maratona and the south side of the Tribuna laterale. That could relocate some seats between now and February, so choose listings whose notes confirm the sector will be in use.
Sightlines vary more here than at a modern stadium. The Franchi was built with a running track around the pitch, so the lower rows of the curve ends sit further from the action than their price suggests, while the upper rows of the Maratona give a clearer view of team shape. If you want to feel close to the players, the central Tribuna is still the strongest compromise between distance and angle.
Fiorentina's corporate hospitality is concentrated in and around the central Tribuna. The renovation has reduced the inventory, so availability is often a bigger constraint than price, even for a standard league fixture.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Viola Lounge | Supporters marking an occasion | Lounge access with catering and a covered central seat. |
| Lounge 100 | Corporate guests in the centenary year | Premium lounge experience with seating in the main stand. |
| Vallepicciola Wine Club | Food and wine lovers | A Tuscan wine-led hospitality space as part of the matchday. |
| Sky Box | Small private groups | A private box for client entertaining or a family celebration. |
The case for hospitality at the Franchi right now is shelter and certainty. With much of the stadium uncovered and capacity reduced, a lounge package guarantees a covered central seat and an indoor space before kick-off and at half-time. For a visitor planning a Florence weekend around the match, that removes most of the matchday variables.
Packages are priced per match and vary with the opponent, so a February Sunday against Udinese is one of the more affordable ways into the club's hospitality in the centenary season.
Plan to arrive early if you book a lounge. The approach to the Tribuna has been rerouted around the building works, and guests who arrive in good time avoid the final half hour before kick-off, when queues at every entrance are at their longest.
Italian tickets are personalised, so the delivery method and the name on the ticket matter more than at most grounds. Read both before you buy.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | Whether it arrives through the club's app or ticketing account and when the transfer will be made. |
| E-ticket (PDF) with change of user | That the ticket will be reissued in your name through the club's change-of-user process and that the sector matches your order. |
| Collection in Florence | The meeting point, time window and the photo ID you will need to show. |
| Paper ticket by courier | That the address can accept a tracked delivery in time, which matters for overseas buyers. |
Read the listing notes for sector, name requirements and any conditions. A valid photo ID is compared with the name on the ticket at the turnstile, so bring a passport or national identity card. If you are using mobile entry, charge your phone fully and load the ticket before you leave for the ground.
The Franchi sits in the Campo di Marte district, about two kilometres east of the historic centre. Firenze Campo di Marte station is a few minutes' walk away with frequent trains from Santa Maria Novella, buses run from the centre and the walk from the Duomo takes around half an hour. The works have changed the approach to some sectors, so allow extra time, and note that there is no left-luggage service at the ground.
After the final whistle, Campo di Marte station and the buses back to the centre fill quickly. Many regulars simply walk back towards the Duomo, which takes about as long as waiting for a crowded train and passes plenty of places to stop for a drink or a late lunch on a Sunday.

Overseas buyers should favour mobile or e-ticket listings with a clear change-of-user process, since the name on an Italian ticket must match your ID. Florence airport is linked to the centre by tram, and Pisa airport is around an hour away by train, with Bologna another option on the high-speed line. If you need seats together, set your group size at the start of your search and keep to listings that confirm adjacent seating.
The main travel risk is the date. Serie A confirms final kick-off times a few weeks before each round, and a Sunday afternoon slot can move to Saturday or Monday evening. Book flexible hotel rates, especially in the historic centre, and leave room in your plans for a changed kick-off or a weather delay on a wet February day.
Florence is also one of the easiest cities in Italy to build a football weekend around. A Sunday afternoon kick-off leaves Saturday free for the Uffizi, the Duomo and the Oltrarno, and the high-speed rail network puts Rome, Bologna and Milan within easy reach for anyone combining the trip with another match. Book central accommodation early, as the historic centre fills even in winter.
Udinese have been a Serie A fixture every season since 1995/96, and for most of that time the trip to Florence has been one of their hardest. Fiorentina won 21 of the 29 league meetings at the Franchi across that period, including 13 consecutive home league wins between November 2008 and October 2020.
The recent chapter has been more unpredictable. Udinese won 4-0 in Florence in April 2022, the heaviest defeat Fiorentina have suffered at home in the fixture in this era, and took a 2-1 win at the Franchi in December 2024. A year later, on 21 December 2025, a Fiorentina side that had gone 15 league matches without a win beat Udinese 5-1 after the visitors lost their goalkeeper to a red card in the eighth minute. It was Fiorentina's biggest win of that season.
What makes the fixture distinctive now is the setting as much as the record. This meeting falls in the centenary season, in a stadium half-built around its supporters, with the organised home support in the wrong end and the new Curva Fiesole close to reopening. Whoever is in the stands on 7 February will see the Franchi in its last months as a building site of this kind.

The balance is striking. Fiorentina have won 72% of these meetings and averaged more than two goals a game, yet two of Udinese's four wins have come in the last five visits. That recent unpredictability is part of why home fans still treat this as a match worth being at.
The goals tell a similar story. Fiorentina have scored at least twice in 20 of the 29 meetings, and Udinese have failed to score in 11 of them. For the hosts, a two-goal cushion has usually been enough; for the visitors, every one of their four wins in this run came in a match where they scored at least twice, which shows how rarely a single goal has been enough in Florence.
