How To Buy Como Tickets: The Definitive Guide for Foreigners

The lake is the easy part. It does not ask for a supporter card, open a priority booking window or insist that you spell everybody’s name exactly as it appears on their passport.

Buying Como football tickets takes a little more preparation. Nothing unmanageable, but enough that “we’ll sort it out when we get there” is not the plan I would choose for a trip built around a match.

Buy Como 1907 home-match tickets through the official Como ticket sales website. Foreign visitors can buy when they meet the conditions for their chosen fixture and section. Check the match-specific sales notice, book in each attendee’s name and bring original identification. Away supporters should follow their own club’s instructions for the designated away allocation.

The important distinction is not simply Italian versus foreign. It is home supporter versus away supporter, eligible purchaser versus restricted purchaser, and a confirmed ticket versus an optimistic travel booking.

Last researched: 1 October 2026. Prices, sales phases, available sections and security restrictions can change. The official notice and checkout conditions for your match take precedence over this guide. ForzaComo is an independent fan site, not the club’s ticket office.

How to buy Como tickets: the short version

Choose a home fixture and verify its confirmed date, kick-off time and venue before committing to inflexible travel.
Read the club’s ticket announcement for that exact match—not an announcement for the same opponent last season.
Open the official ticket portal and register or sign in before the sale begins.
Check whether you qualify for the current sales phase, including any residency, purchase-history, payment or supporter-card requirements.
Select an appropriate section and adjacent seats if travelling together. Arrange special child or accessibility tickets through their dedicated procedures first.
Enter each attendee’s details accurately, complete payment and check that your actual admission tickets have been issued.
Save the tickets in the format instructed by the club and bring the required original ID for everyone attending.

If something is unclear before payment, contact [email protected]. Include the match, desired section, your country of residence and the specific problem. A precise question is easier to resolve than “Can tourists come?”

Can foreigners buy Como 1907 tickets?

Yes, subject to the fixture’s sales conditions. There is no sensible blanket rule saying either “foreigners cannot buy” or “a foreign passport gets you into any section”.

Nationality and residence are different things. A restriction on residents of a particular region or country can affect somebody who supports Como just as much as somebody supporting the opposition.

For example, Como’s October 2026 home ticket notice for Manchester United excluded UK residents from buying home-sector tickets and directed United supporters to their club’s away-ticket channel. That was a restriction for that fixture, not a permanent ban on British visitors.

Use your genuine address and personal details. A hotel address is not a workaround for a residency restriction. If the wording leaves your circumstances unclear, obtain clarification before booking.

Do you need a membership or a Tessera del Tifoso?

Do not confuse three different things:

A ticketing account: the login used to make purchases.
Como Passport: the club’s account and benefits programme, used to recognise your relationship and purchasing history with Como.
A fidelity card or Tessera del Tifoso: a supporter card that may be required for particular tickets, especially away allocations.

An account is not an automatic right to priority access, and Como Passport should not be assumed to replace a required fidelity card. Read the eligibility rules for your sale rather than buying a membership on the assumption that it guarantees a seat.

When do Como tickets go on sale?

There is no reliable universal answer such as “exactly two weeks before kick-off”. Como publishes fixture-specific arrangements, sometimes with several stages.

Those stages can include hospitality sales, priority for season-ticket holders or previous purchasers, and a later general sale. Different sections can open at different times.

Two Italian expressions are worth recognising:

Prelazione: a priority purchase opportunity for qualifying supporters.
Vendita libera: general sale, still subject to the stated restrictions and remaining availability.

If the website requests a sigillo fiscale, it is asking for a fiscal seal from a qualifying ticket or season ticket. This is not your passport number or Italian tax code. The announcement will explain which purchase qualifies and how to enter its code.

Watch the official club announcements before your travel dates. An unavailable match might not yet be on sale; it is not automatically sold out. Conversely, a visible event does not mean every visitor is currently entitled to buy.

Do I need Revolut to buy tickets?

Sometimes, during a particular sales phase. Como has used Revolut-only payment for the first two days of sales in several official match announcements.

Do not assume that means Revolut is permanently compulsory for every ticket, or that another card will work during a restricted window. Check the current notice and payment options before the sale opens. If you wait for another payment method, the seat you wanted may no longer be available.

Sale times are local Italian times unless stated otherwise. Convert them for your location rather than assuming the website means your own afternoon.

How much do Como match tickets cost?

There is no single price for a Como ticket. Your opponent, section, competition and ticket category matter, as does whether the offer includes hospitality.

For context—not as a current quote—official away allocations have included €35 excluding service fees for Lazio in August 2025 and €45 for Napoli in May 2026. Those figures are not promises about home seats or future away allocations.

Compare the live price for your actual match, then check the final total before paying. A premium package with pre-match dining is not directly comparable with a seat-only ticket.

If your dates are flexible, compare several fixtures. If your budget is fixed, decide your ceiling before the sale begins. It is remarkably easy to turn “we’re already going to the lake” into a much more expensive afternoon than intended.

What if ordinary tickets are unavailable?

Check whether further official sales phases have been announced. You can also enquire about the club’s official hospitality options, if they fit your budget.

Ask what is actually included: the match seat and section, where the hospitality takes place, when it begins and whether access extends to half-time. Some experiences take place outside the stadium before the game.

Hospitality is not a way around supporter or residency restrictions. Confirm your eligibility before purchasing a package.

Where to sit at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia

The Sinigaglia’s main areas are the Tribuna Coperta, Distinti, Curva Como Ovest and the eastern-end sections, including the designated away sector. Use the live map for your match: block labels, available areas and allocations can change between competitions.

Tribuna Coperta: my first choice for a first family visit

The covered main stand runs along the side of the pitch. For a visitor prioritising a comfortable view and shelter, this is where I would start looking.

Choose a central position if seeing the shape of the game matters more than being close to a particular goal. Do not assume that the lowest row offers the best view, especially for a child. Como has specifically warned that pitch works can affect sightlines in the lower Tribuna rows.

A roof is useful, but it is not a guarantee against wind-driven rain in every seat. Ask about your particular block if staying sheltered is essential.

Distinti: a side-on view from the lakeside stand

The Distinti run along the opposite touchline, on the lake side of the ground. They are worth comparing with the Tribuna if you want to follow the whole pitch rather than watch from behind a goal.

Plan for an exposed seat unless the booking information specifies otherwise. “Lakeside” describes the stand’s location; it does not promise an unobstructed lake panorama from your chair.

Look carefully at the distinction between central, side and parterre sections. Parterre generally refers to the lower seating area. Closer to the grass is not necessarily better for following play at the far end.

Curva Como Ovest: the home supporting end

The western end is the heart of Como’s vocal support. Choose it because you want that home-end experience, not simply because a seat happens to cost less.

For a new Como supporter who wants to participate, that atmosphere can be the point of the trip. For a small child who needs a clear, settled view, I would investigate the Tribuna first. That is a seating recommendation, not a claim that families are unwelcome in the Curva.

Away supporters should not buy here.

Curva Est and Curva Ospiti: read the label carefully

Do not treat every eastern-end seat as interchangeable. The stadium map distinguishes home-use eastern sections from the Curva Ospiti, the designated visiting-supporter area.

Buy the allocation appropriate to your team. Being near the away end does not make a home-section ticket an away ticket.

Como tickets for away fans

If you are travelling to support Como’s opponents, start with your own club’s official away-ticket announcement and cross-check Como’s notice.

For domestic fixtures, the authorised purchasing route may be Como’s portal, with a fidelity-card requirement. European allocations may instead be distributed through the visiting club. Being an overseas supporter does not automatically exempt you from the visiting club’s eligibility rules.

Check four things before making travel commitments:

Which supporters are eligible, including any residence restrictions.
Whether a particular club fidelity card or membership is required.
The sale deadline and whether name changes are permitted.
The match-specific arrival route, meeting point and departure arrangements.

Do not plan to buy an away ticket at the stadium on matchday. Official notices have explicitly ruled out matchday away-sector sales and closed bookings the previous evening.

Allow flexibility after full-time, too. Away supporters may be held back while other spectators disperse; previous match guidance has included a 30-minute hold. Treat that as an example, not a fixed release time.

Can I wear an away shirt in a home section?

Do not do so. Como has publicly set out restrictions on opposition clothing outside the away sector, and its home tickets are intended for home supporters.

Nor would I advise buying a home ticket and assuming that hiding a scarf makes everything acceptable. The right solution is the correct allocation, not hoping nobody asks.

For a mixed group supporting different teams, ask the club what arrangements, if any, are permitted before buying seats together.

Bringing children to a Como match

A football trip with children can be wonderful. It can also involve a tired six-year-old asking to leave during the best ten minutes of the match. Choose the fixture and seat for the child you are bringing, not the imaginary child who enjoys every adult plan.

My starting points would be an earlier kick-off, adjacent seats, manageable travel and a section where the child can actually see. Consider ear defenders for a child who finds crowds overwhelming, and leave room to depart early if necessary.

Are children’s tickets free?

Not automatically. Como operates an under-14 complimentary-ticket scheme for selected matches, in specified sections and subject to availability.

The published scheme allows one eligible child per paying adult parent or relative within the stated family relationship. The adult and child tickets must be issued together so they can sit alongside one another.

Read the official under-14 ticket information and follow its request process before buying the adult seat separately. Do not assume you can add a free child’s ticket afterwards. A discounted youth ticket is also different from this complimentary scheme.

Can one adult bring two children?

Check this directly before booking. The published Sinigaglia regulations available through official visiting-club guidance state a maximum of one under-14 per accompanying adult. That wording goes beyond the complimentary-ticket offer.

Because the accessible copy predates the latest season’s rule changes, ask Como to confirm the current arrangement for your group rather than assuming two paid child tickets resolve it.

What about babies and pushchairs?

Do not assume lap-held babies enter without a ticket. Obtain confirmation about infant admission and documentation before purchasing.

Pushchairs appear on the prohibited-items list in the published stadium rules. Ask about any authorised arrangement in advance; do not arrive expecting storage at the gate.

What ID do you need at the Sinigaglia?

Tickets are named. Bring original, valid identification for every attendee, including children, and ensure the ticket details match.

For visitors resident abroad, a passport is the safest document to plan around; Como has explicitly accepted passports for foreign citizens living outside Italy in a previous match notice. Check whether your fixture imposes any additional identification or residence-verification requirements. Do not rely on a photograph of your passport.

Use each person’s own details when buying a group, not the purchaser’s name on every ticket. Double-check spelling before payment.

What if the form asks for an Italian tax code?

Follow the portal’s instructions for your actual nationality and overseas residence. If a mandatory codice fiscale field leaves you unable to proceed, ask ticket support how to register as a foreign customer. Do not invent a code or enter somebody else’s information.

Keep the codice fiscale separate from the sigillo fiscale: the first is a tax identifier, the second a code associated with an issued ticket.

Can you change the name or get a refund?

Do not assume either is available. Check the conditions attached to your particular ticket before paying, especially if another person might replace you.

An authorised holder change—cambio utilizzatore or cambio nominativo—is not the same as forwarding a ticket PDF. Some match notices expressly prohibit it.

Likewise, do not assume a changed kick-off time, missed flight or inability to travel creates a refund entitlement. Read the applicable terms and ask the club about anything unclear. Flexible transport and accommodation are worth considering while the fixture remains unconfirmed.

What to bring and what to leave behind

Keep your matchday bag simple: admission ticket, original ID, payment method, charged phone and suitable clothing. Download what you need before leaving your accommodation, following the ticket’s instructions about display or printing.

Published ground rules restrict drinks containers, professional camera equipment and dangerous items; only small, non-pointed umbrellas fall within the stated umbrella exception. A rain jacket avoids that particular judgement call.

For medicines, essential equipment, child-feeding supplies or other special requirements, ask the club about approval before travelling. Leave luggage elsewhere and do not assume there is a stadium bag-storage service.

Check the current Sinigaglia regulations rather than importing the rules from another Italian ground.

Accessible tickets and disability arrangements

Start with Como’s official information for disabled supporters, not the ordinary seat map.

The club publishes dedicated application windows, limited allocations and documentation requirements. Its current discounted scheme requires certification of 100% disability; overseas applicants need documentation that meets the stated requirements. An adult companion is mandatory under that scheme, and the published ticket price includes the companion.

Wheelchair spaces and other accessible seating are not interchangeable. Locations also differ between domestic and European matches. Explain your mobility needs, ask about foreign documentation and wait for the club’s instructions before buying an unsuitable ordinary seat. Away supporters should also consult their own club’s accessibility team.

Will foreign visitors feel welcome?

You do not need fluent Italian or a childhood spent on the lake to care about Como. Arrive curious, respect the people around you and treat the match as more than a backdrop for photographs.

No guide can promise how every individual in a crowd will behave. My advice is to choose the appropriate section, avoid provocative opposition clothing in home areas and let the stewards help if there is a problem. You need not learn every chant to enjoy being part of the afternoon.

Expect ticket checks and security screening. Those are not evidence that you have been singled out for being foreign. Have your documents ready, use the gate shown on your ticket and follow staff directions.

A little Italian is useful: ingresso means entrance, settore section, fila row and posto seat. A “buongiorno” and a “grazie” help with the rest.

Getting to the stadium and planning your return

The stadium is at Viale Giuseppe Sinigaglia, 2, Como. Como San Giovanni and Como Lago are both useful stations for reaching the area on foot; your permitted matchday route may differ if you are an away supporter.

From Milan, check services to Como San Giovanni from Centrale or Porta Garibaldi, or to Como Lago from Cadorna. Use Trenord’s journey planner for your actual date rather than relying on an old screenshot of a timetable.

For a first visit, I would aim to be near the stadium roughly 90 minutes before kick-off, adjusting to the official gate-opening time. That is a planning recommendation, not an entry rule.

Check the journey home just as carefully. Allow for stoppage time, queues, walking to the station and any away-fan hold. A beautiful lakeside hotel in another town is not necessarily an easy destination after a late finish.

Frequently asked questions about Como tickets

Can tourists buy Como tickets without a season ticket?

Yes, where an eligible general-sale allocation is available. A season ticket is not the same thing as a ticketing account, and priority windows may exclude first-time buyers until a later phase.

Can I buy Como tickets at the stadium?

Do not build your trip around it. Check the specific match notice for any home-ticket office arrangements; do not expect walk-up away-ticket sales. Buying online through the official channel in advance is the practical starting point.

Which Como seats are best for children?

I would start with adjacent seats in the Tribuna Coperta, checking sightlines and shelter. The section offered under the complimentary under-14 scheme may be different, so compare the available family arrangement before buying.

Can away fans sit in the home end if they are foreign?

Being foreign does not override supporter segregation or ticket conditions. Follow your club’s away-allocation instructions rather than assuming a neutral outfit makes a home ticket suitable.

Does “sold out” mean my trip is impossible?

It means you should not assume you can attend. Check for any further official release or eligible hospitality availability. Until a ticket is confirmed, treat the match as uncertain when planning travel.

Before you leave for the match

Check the date and kick-off again. Confirm everyone has the correct named ticket and original ID. Know your gate, your section and your route home. Re-read any late club notices.

Then give yourself some time by the lake. The paperwork is preparation, not the experience itself. Once you are through the gate, there is a football match to fall in love with.
