Buy Parma vs Torino tickets for the 2026/27 season and you are looking at one of the more gettable fixtures in Serie A, at a ground where the visitors have historically struggled. Kickoff is 20:45 local time on Monday 19 October 2026, the closing match of matchday seven. Parma host. Torino have won three times in nineteen league visits to this stadium.

The Monday night slot is the single most useful thing to know before you shop. It is the least convenient kickoff in the Italian week for anyone travelling, which suppresses casual and overseas demand in a way that a Saturday evening fixture never does. Parma average around 18,700 in a ground holding 22,352, so there is genuine room here.
What is not straightforward is the buying process. Parma operate a fidelity card, the Tardini Card, and entry conditions at this stadium are stricter than most visitors expect. Understanding that before you pay is what separates a completed trip from a refusal at the gate.
Start with the honest position, because it is unusual for a Serie A page. Parma sold 337,715 tickets across last season for an average of 18,762, which in a 22,352-capacity ground is roughly 84% occupancy. This is not a club that sells out on reputation, and a mid-table Monday fixture is one of the more available dates on the calendar.
The season ticket base does most of the work, though. Parma recorded 13,330 season ticket holders last season, a club record and close to 60% of the ground committed before a single match ticket is sold. What circulates for an individual fixture is therefore the remaining 40% plus whatever holders release, which is a smaller pool than the occupancy figure alone suggests.
Torino add moderate rather than heavy pressure. They are a well-supported club with a loyal travelling following, but the visiting sector at the Tardini is compact and Torino do not generate the overflow that a Milan or Naples fixture would. The away allocation clears within its own closed pool and rarely spills into the general market.
The kickoff time then works in a buyer's favour. A 20:45 Monday broadcast slot is the hardest fixture in the Italian week to travel to, which keeps neutral and international demand low and holds prices closer to face value than a weekend equivalent would. If you can make a Monday work, this is one of the better-value Serie A trips available.
You can buy, but the card changes both what you pay and what you need at the turnstile, so it is worth understanding properly.
The Tardini Card is Parma's fidelity card. Holders get a reduced rate across most sectors of the ground, which is the club's main lever for rewarding regular attendance. Buyers without one pay the standard tariff, and for a fixture with this much availability that is usually still a straightforward purchase through club channels.
The entry requirement is the part that catches people out. Card holders are asked to present three things at the gate: the Tardini Card itself, a photo identity document and the seat receipt. Turning up with only one of the three is the most common reason a supporter is stopped, and it is not a rule most visitors from outside Italy will have encountered elsewhere.
The visiting sector is closed off entirely from general sale. Places in the settore ospiti go through the away club's own channels at a fixed low price, and Italian practice restricts them to holders of the visiting club's fidelity card. There is no route into that section for a neutral or for a Torino supporter without club standing.
Season tickets absorb the rest. Renewals for 2026/27 ran through the first three weeks of June with open sale opening afterwards, and single match tickets are released in that same second phase. Parma kept increases modest, in the region of £0.40 to £2.20 equivalent per match, and the Curva Nord remains among the least expensive popular sectors anywhere in the division. That pricing is a large part of why the season ticket base is at a record level and why the resale market matters more than the raw occupancy figure implies.
Five things set the number here. Availability comes first and it works in your favour: a ground running at 84% occupancy has slack that a San Siro or an Allianz Stadium does not. Seat location is second, and the Tardini spreads from an inexpensive curve place to a covered central seat in the Petitot stand.
The kickoff slot is the third driver and it pulls prices down rather than up, because a Monday night is genuinely awkward to reach. Competition context is fourth: a league fixture with no cup or European premium attached. Hospitality is the fifth, and at a ground this size the premium pool is small enough to hold its value regardless of the fixture.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva | £85 – £140 | Supporters who came for the atmosphere | The lowest-priced way in and among the most affordable popular sectors in Serie A. Standing and singing throughout |
| Tribuna Laterale Est | £110 – £180 | Value buyers who want a side-on view | Level with the play at a sensible price. The most common choice for a first visit |
| Tribuna Laterale Petitot | £160 – £260 | Buyers wanting cover and comfort | The main stand away from the centre. Sheltered, calm and close enough to follow everything |
| Tribuna Centrale Petitot | £230 – £400 | Supporters wanting the halfway line | The clearest sightlines in the ground and the first inventory to clear for any fixture |
| Hospitality and premium seating | £400 – £800 | Corporate guests and special occasions | A small pool at a stadium of this size. Includes catering, indoor access and a central covered seat |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
The Tardini opened in 1923 and remains an old-fashioned Italian city ground, sitting in a residential quarter a short walk from the centre of Parma rather than out beyond a ring road. Capacity for Serie A stands at 22,352. There is no running track, which puts the crowd closer to the pitch than at many Italian stadiums of the same vintage.
The sector naming takes a moment to learn because the club splits its stands finely. The Petitot side carries the Tribuna Centrale and Tribuna Laterale, the opposite side holds the Tribuna Centrale Est, Tribuna Laterale Est and a Tribuna Inferiore Est that includes a dedicated kids area, and the two ends are the Curva Nord and Curva Sud. The visiting sector is separate from all of it.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Nord | Supporters who want the noise | Lower | The organised home support gathers here and the pricing is among the friendliest in the division. Expect standing for the full match |
| Curva Sud | Value buyers at the quieter end | Lower | The opposite curve, calmer than the Nord with the same clean view down the length of the pitch |
| Tribuna Inferiore Est | Families with younger children | Lower to mid | Contains the club's dedicated kids area, which makes it the natural choice for anyone bringing children |
| Tribuna Laterale Est | Neutrals and first visits | Mid | Side-on and level with the action. The most reliable all-round pick at this ground |
| Tribuna Centrale Petitot | Buyers wanting the clearest view | Upper to premium | Covered central seating above the benches, with the shortest walk to facilities at the interval |
| Settore Ospiti | Torino supporters on the club allocation | Lower | The designated visiting section with segregated entry, priced at a flat low rate. Visiting colours belong here and nowhere else |
Neutrals should take the Tribuna Laterale Est or, if the weather looks poor, the Petitot side for cover. Both give a proper view without premium pricing and keep you clear of the segregation lines that matter on an Italian matchday. Anyone sitting in a home sector should leave visiting colours behind, since stewarding at Italian grounds applies this firmly and immediately.
Hospitality here is modest and honest about it. This is a 22,000-capacity ground built in the 1920s, so the premium provision sits within the Petitot stand rather than in a purpose-built corporate tier. What you are buying is a covered central seat, indoor space either side of the match and a short walk to everything.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Premium seating in the Petitot stand | Solo travellers and couples upgrading | A covered central seat with indoor access before kickoff and at half-time |
| Lounge packages with catering | Small groups marking a trip | Food and drink indoors either side of the match, then a reserved seat on the halfway line |
| Box and shared suite places | Corporate hosts and family groups | A self-contained space with catering brought to you and no queueing at any point |
| Full hosted packages | Buyers wanting the complete version | Looked after from arrival to departure, which suits anyone unfamiliar with Italian matchday procedure |
Two practical points. Hospitality asks you to arrive well before kickoff, which on a 20:45 Monday means committing the whole evening and almost certainly an overnight stay. And because the premium pool is genuinely small at this ground, these products move faster than the availability elsewhere in the stadium would suggest.
Parma is also one of the great food cities in Europe, which changes the calculation. A hospitality package here competes not with a stadium kiosk but with the city's own restaurants fifteen minutes away, so plenty of visitors are better served taking a good seat and eating properly in town beforehand.
This is the section that matters most for this fixture. Entry procedure at the Tardini is stricter than at most European grounds, and the requirements are documented by the club rather than being informal practice.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile transfer | Confirm which app or wallet the seat lands in, whose name it carries and how much notice you will get |
| Electronic ticket by email | Check whether it must be printed or scans from a phone, and save an offline copy before you travel |
| Collection in Parma | Note the collection point and its opening window. On a Monday fixture this means arriving during the working day |
| Named holder and card conditions | Check whether the listing carries a fidelity card condition, since holders are asked for the card, photo identification and the seat receipt at the gate |
Three habits prevent nearly every problem here. Read the listing notes in full, because card and naming conditions live there rather than in the headline price. Carry photo identification, since it is part of the documented entry requirement rather than a spot check. And allow time at the turnstiles, because a three-document check moves more slowly than a simple barcode scan.

Step1
Open the fixture listing
Start from the listing for this match rather than a general search. It shows only what is available for 19 October at the Tardini, which keeps every comparison like for like.
Step2
Set up your account first
You can create an account in under a minute. Doing it before you shortlist means you are not entering details while the listing you wanted is being checked out by somebody else.
Step3
Choose your stand before your price
The Tardini splits its stands finely and listings quote those sector names. Decide between a curve, the Est side and the Petitot side first, or the names will mean nothing when you compare them.
Step4
Filter by quantity
Set the exact number you need. Listings sell in fixed blocks, so a pair pulled from a group of four is often unavailable. This strips out everything that cannot work for your party.
Step5
Read the listing notes properly
The step most buyers skip and the one that matters most in Italy. Notes carry the sector, the delivery method and any fidelity card or named holder condition attached to the seat.
Step6
Check the total before confirming
Review the full amount including fees and any delivery charge. Comparing headline prices misleads when one listing carries a courier cost and another delivers to your phone for nothing.
Step7
Complete secure payment
Pay through the encrypted checkout and keep the confirmation email. It carries the order reference that any query between now and matchday will run on.
Step8
Follow the order through to delivery
Use track order to watch the status update as seats are confirmed and released. Italian clubs commonly release late, so a quiet tracker weeks out is normal rather than a warning.
Parma is an easy city to reach and an outstanding one to spend a night in. It sits on the main line between Milan and Bologna, putting both within about an hour by train, and Bologna Marconi is the nearest sizeable airport at roughly an hour away. The Tardini is a short walk from the centre, which removes the parking problem entirely and makes the walk back after a late finish straightforward. A 20:45 Monday kickoff realistically means staying over.
Overseas buyers should treat delivery and entry conditions as the first question rather than the last. Mobile and electronic delivery suit anyone arriving on matchday, while collection options need you in Parma during working hours. Check whether the listing carries a fidelity card or named holder condition, since that is the most common reason a visitor is refused at an Italian turnstile, and confirm seats-together status at purchase rather than assuming a listing for four is a row of four. Serie A kickoff times are confirmed a few weeks ahead and can still move for broadcast, so flexible travel is worth the small premium.
Torino's own supporters describe the Tardini as an awkward ground, and the record backs them. Across nineteen Serie A meetings here Parma have won eleven, drawn five and lost three, scoring thirty goals to sixteen. For a club that has spent the last decade rebuilding from the bottom of the Italian pyramid, holding that kind of home record against an established top-flight side is a genuine oddity.
The modern run tells a more balanced story. Since Parma returned to Serie A in 2018 the two clubs have met five times at this ground, producing two home wins, two draws and one defeat. The margins have been narrow throughout, with three of the five decided by a single goal and two finishing level. Whatever the long record says, this is not a fixture either side turns up expecting to control.
There is also a timing argument. A phased redevelopment of the Tardini has been planned for several years, funded by the club rather than the city and running to roughly 27 months once it begins in earnest. The finished ground is set to hold 20,986 seats, all of them covered, which is fewer places than the stadium offers today. Whatever the schedule ends up being, the version of this ground that visitors see now has a limited life.
What makes this one worth the trip is the combination of ground and city. The Tardini is a proper pre-war stadium with the crowd tight to the pitch, in a town that most visiting supporters bypass on the way to Milan or Bologna. Add a fixture with no comfortable favourite and prices well below the Italian average, and a Monday night in Parma stands up better than the fixture list suggests.

Every score above is verified against at least two independent sources. The table covers league fixtures only and begins with Parma's return to Serie A, since the club spent the intervening seasons in the lower divisions. The all-time figure quoted above covers the full Serie A record at this ground.
Not to buy, but it changes the price. The card gives holders a reduced rate across most sectors, and holders are asked to present it with photo identification and the seat receipt at the gate.
Unlikely in full. Parma averaged around 84% of capacity last season, and a Monday night kickoff is the least contested slot in the Italian week, so availability tends to hold later than at most Serie A grounds.
In the settore ospiti, the designated visiting sector with segregated entry and a flat low price. It is sold through the visiting club rather than on general release, and visiting colours belong there only.
A phased redevelopment is planned, but the approach was chosen specifically so the club can keep playing at the Tardini throughout rather than moving to a temporary ground elsewhere in the province.
The Tribuna Laterale Est for a side-on view at a sensible price, or the Petitot side if you want cover. Families should look at the Tribuna Inferiore Est, which contains the club's dedicated kids area.
