This fixture has turned in recent seasons. Torino were unbeaten at home against Bologna for years, yet the visitors have won the last two meetings here, 2-0 in December 2024 and 2-1 in February 2026. If you follow Torino, this is a home date with a score to settle, and the Curva Maratona will be in full voice.
Below you will find what drives the price, which part of the ground suits your day, how hospitality works, how named-ticket rules affect entry and the full Serie A record between the clubs at this stadium since Torino's return in 2006.
Torino vs Bologna is not one of Serie A's headline games, and that is good news for buyers. Prices start well below those for Torino's derby with Juventus or visits from the Milan clubs, and there is a wider choice of areas. The trade-off is timing: by May, season ticket holders and late-season neutrals take a bigger share of the better seats, so planning still matters.
The date carries a meaning for Torino supporters that goes beyond the table. Every year on 4 May, fans climb to the Basilica of Superga, the hill above the city where the Grande Torino side died in the 1949 air disaster, to remember the team. A home game a few days later always has an emotional edge, and the Curva Maratona tends to be at its fullest and loudest.
Bologna arrive as one of the clubs that have lifted their profile most in recent years, with Champions League football in 2024/25 and the Coppa Italia in 2025. They bring a committed travelling support from Emilia-Romagna, a little over three hours away by road, and a visiting end that has watched its team win at this ground twice in a row.
This is also a meeting of two of Italian football's historic names. Bologna are seven-time Italian champions, and Torino's own golden era produced the Grande Torino side of the 1940s. Neither club has the budget of the giants from Milan and Turin's other half, which gives the fixture a sense of balance that makes the outcome hard to predict.
The first meeting this season, at the Dall'Ara in September 2026, finished 1-1. That leaves the return at the Olimpico Grande Torino with plenty to play for, especially for a Torino side looking to end a two-match losing run at home against the Rossoblù. With only three rounds to follow, both teams may also have European places or survival to think about.
Bologna also have cup commitments on their schedule this season, with ties such as Bologna vs Palermo in the Coppa Italia. A crowded spring calendar for the visitors adds to the uncertainty around team selection and only makes the outcome harder to call.
Yes, more often than for the headline Serie A games. Torino sells season tickets first, then releases single-match tickets through its ticketing channels in the weeks before the game. For a fixture like this, seats in the Distinti and the curve are usually available for a time, though the central Tribuna sells faster.
Italian football's rules still apply. Tickets are personal and linked to a named holder, and the name must match photo identification at the gate. Away sales are restricted further, with visiting fans usually buying through their own club and sometimes facing residency limits set by the authorities. Bologna fans who miss their club's allocation should not expect to buy into a home sector instead.
For visitors from abroad, the challenge is timing rather than availability. Club single-match sales open only shortly before the game, while flights and hotels need booking earlier, especially for a weekend in May.
A verified marketplace closes that gap. 1BoxOffice lists seats from verified sellers with the sector and delivery method shown before checkout, so you can secure the match first and plan the trip around it. For a Sunday in May, buying a few weeks out also gives you the widest choice of sectors and seats together.
Five things set the price for this match. Seat location matters most, with central Tribuna Granata seats priced well above the curve. Demand comes next and is moderate for this fixture, which keeps the lower end of the range accessible.
Fixture timing adds a little pressure, as a Sunday in May brings more visitors to Turin. Competition context matters, since Matchday 35 points can decide European places or survival in the 2026/27 run-in. Finally, hospitality tier lifts the top of the range.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Primavera and corners | £35 – £55 | Budget-minded buyers and first-time visitors | The lowest entry point, with a view down the pitch |
| Curva Maratona | £40 – £65 | Supporters who want the full Torino atmosphere | The home ultras' end; expect to stand and sing throughout |
| Distinti Granata | £50 – £80 | Neutrals who want a side-on view | The long side opposite the main stand, calmer and well priced |
| Central Tribuna Granata | £70 – £120+ | Buyers who want a balanced, central view | Main stand seating near the halfway line |
| Hospitality and VIP | £150 – £300+ | Celebrations, corporate guests and special trips | Premium Tribuna seats with lounge access and dining |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Two patterns shape this market. Season ticket holders who cannot attend add supply through the spring, keeping the lower end steady. Central Tribuna seats move the other way, because demand from neutrals and visiting groups concentrates there. Expect the lower end of the range to stay accessible for longer than at Torino's headline fixtures, while central seats firm up in the final fortnight.
If you want a particular sector, buy early. Flexible buyers have more room to wait for this fixture than for Torino's biggest home games, which makes it a sensible choice for anyone new to Serie A. Group buyers in particular benefit, as blocks of four or more are far easier to find than for the Turin derby.
The Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino first opened in 1933 and was rebuilt for the 2006 Winter Olympics, when it hosted the opening and closing ceremonies. Its name honours the Grande Torino side lost in the Superga air disaster of 1949, and the ground holds around 28,177. Study the Olimpico Grande Torino seating plan before you buy, as the curve and the long sides offer quite different matchdays.
The Curva Maratona behind one goal is the home of Torino's ultras, while the Tribuna Granata and the Distinti Granata run along the sides. Anyone planning more than one trip to Turin this season can compare every upcoming fixture through tickets for the Olimpico Grande Torino.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Maratona | Full Torino atmosphere, flags and constant singing | Lower to mid | Named after the old Marathon Tower; home colours only and expect to stand |
| Curva Primavera | A view down the pitch at the lowest prices | Lower | The opposite end, calmer for home sections; the visitors' sector sits at this end |
| Tribuna Granata | A central view with the main facilities | Upper | Main stand with premium seating, media positions and the tunnel |
| Distinti Granata | A clear side-on view in a calmer setting | Mid | Good sightlines at a lower price than the Tribuna |
| Corners | Better-value seats with a full view | Lower to mid | An angled view, often the most affordable seated option |
| Away sector (Bologna supporters) | Travelling Bologna fans | Lower to mid | At the Curva Primavera end, separated from home areas; Bologna colours belong here only |
Neutral buyers and groups with fans of both clubs should avoid the Curva Maratona and the sectors next to the visitors. The Distinti Granata gives a full view of the match in a calmer setting. Neutral clothing is the safer choice anywhere outside the away sector. Families often prefer the corners of the Distinti, where prices are lower and the view of both goals is still clear.
The Curva Maratona is the reason many visitors come. Torino's supporters are known across Italy for their loyalty, and on matchday the end fills with maroon flags and banners. The name recalls the Marathon Tower of the old stadium, and the memory of the Grande Torino is woven into everything the curva does.
For a calmer view, the Tribuna Granata and the Distinti Granata offer two different angles on the same pitch. The Tribuna holds the central premium seats and the tunnel, while the Distinti opposite gives a full view at a lower price and is popular with families and visiting neutrals. Either is a good choice for a first visit if you would rather sit than stand.
Parts of the ground are covered, but some sections and the corners are more exposed. In May, Turin is usually warm, so for a 16:00 kick-off sun protection and water are more useful than a heavy coat. Supporters with access needs should contact the club before travelling to confirm wheelchair positions and step-free routes.
Premium seating at the Olimpico Grande Torino is concentrated in the Tribuna Granata, where VIP areas combine a central view with lounge access. For a Sunday afternoon in May, a hospitality ticket turns the trip into a relaxed occasion at a fraction of the cost of the headline Serie A games.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| VIP Tribuna seat | Buyers who want comfort without a full meal | A central padded seat with lounge access for drinks |
| Lounge with dining | Couples and small groups marking an occasion | A pre-match meal and a premium seat near the halfway line |
| Group hospitality | Company outings and celebrations | Seats together in the premium area with shared catering |
| Premium Tribuna seat | Supporters who want a better view and nothing more | A central seat that leaves the pre-match meal to the city |
Premium places are limited, and demand rises on spring weekends when visiting groups combine a match with a break in the city, so book early if hospitality is the plan. Inclusions vary between packages and fixtures, so check each listing for food, drinks and seat location before you commit.
Turin is one of Italy's great food cities, the home of the aperitivo and of chocolate and coffee traditions such as bicerin. Many visitors prefer to eat in the centre and buy a premium seat only. If the kick-off time moves for television, confirm that any package timings move with it. A hospitality seat also guarantees places together, which suits groups and families on a spring weekend.
Torino uses modern ticketing, with most tickets issued digitally or as named tickets scanned at the turnstile. Every listing states how the seat will reach you, so read that note before you buy, and check whether a change of holder name is involved.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| E-ticket (PDF) | The name, sector and gate on the ticket and that the barcode is clear enough to scan |
| Mobile transfer | The app or account the ticket will be sent to and that it is set up before matchday |
| Named ticket with holder change | The deadline for submitting the holder's details and the ID you will need at the gate |
| Collection in Turin | The meeting point, time window and what to bring, allowing time before kick-off |
Check the listing notes before you buy and again before you travel. Bring valid photo identification, since the name on the ticket can be checked against your ID. Charge your phone fully for mobile entry and download the ticket in advance. Large bags are refused, so travel light and arrive early to clear the search.
The ground sits in the Santa Rita district in the south of the city, around three and a half kilometres from Porta Nuova station. Tram line 4 is the simplest way in from the centre, and the trip is short. Parking around the stadium is limited on matchday, so public transport is the easier choice.
Tickets for Serie A matches are often released to holders only in the days before kick-off, so a ticket that has not arrived a week out is normal. Keep notifications on and check your order status as the date approaches.
Make time for the city. Turin's centre, with the Mole Antonelliana, Piazza San Carlo and its long arcades, is easy to walk around in a morning before heading south to the ground for the afternoon kick-off. Fans who want more of the club's story can visit the Museo del Grande Torino e della Leggenda Granata in nearby Grugliasco, and many combine it with a trip up to Superga.

Overseas buyers should favour e-ticket or mobile listings, which arrive before you travel and remove the need to meet anyone in Turin. Where a listing needs a holder change, submit your details early and make sure they match your passport. Groups who want seats together should filter for adjacent seats and choose the same sector if split across listings. Turin hotels are generally better value than those in Milan or Rome, which helps keep the cost of a weekend trip down.
Plan around the date moving. Serie A confirms kick-off slots a few weeks ahead, and a Sunday match can shift to Saturday or Monday for broadcast reasons, so flexible flights and refundable hotels are the safer choice. Turin has its own airport north of the city, and Milan is around an hour away by high-speed train. Bologna supporters planning their season can compare this trip with home dates at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.
Since Torino returned to the Olimpico in 2006, the ground has mostly been kind to them in this fixture. After a 1-1 draw in May 2009, Torino won 1-0 in November 2012, and from 2015 they put together a strong run that included a 2-0 win, a 5-1 thrashing in August 2016 and a 3-0 win in January 2018. Bologna's only success in that era came with a 2-1 win in February 2014.
The last few years have tilted towards the visitors. Bologna won a five-goal thriller 3-2 in March 2019, and after Torino won three of the next four meetings, the Rossoblù have taken over, drawing 0-0 in May 2024 and then winning 2-0 in December 2024 and 2-1 in February 2026. It is the first time Bologna have won consecutive Serie A visits to this ground since Torino moved back.
The fixture has also seen its share of unusual afternoons. The 1-1 draw in December 2020 was played behind closed doors during the pandemic, and crowds have varied widely since, from full spring Sundays to quieter winter fixtures. A May date this late in the season usually brings a healthy crowd, with Torino supporters keen to end the recent run against the Rossoblù.
What makes this fixture distinctive is the shift in fortunes. Torino's home record is still strong overall, with seven wins in fourteen, but Bologna's recent rise has turned a routine fixture into a genuine contest. For a buyer, that means a home crowd looking for a response and a visiting end that expects to compete.
The setting adds to the occasion. A ground named for one of the great sides in Italian football history, a curva known for its loyalty and a late-season date with real stakes make this one of the more rewarding Serie A trips for the price. Few Italian grounds tell their club's story as powerfully, and a late-season date gives the day a sense of purpose for both sets of supporters.
The figures below cover every Serie A meeting at the Olimpico Grande Torino with Torino as hosts since the club returned to the stadium in 2006. Meetings at the Stadio delle Alpi are not included. Torino have kept six clean sheets in the fourteen meetings and scored in twelve of them.

No, a verified marketplace listing does not require an abbonamento or a club account.
Several weeks out gives the widest choice of seats, particularly for central Tribuna seats, which sell faster than the curve.
Visiting supporters use the away sector at the Curva Primavera end, separated from home areas. Bologna colours should not be worn in home sectors.
