Tickets

Usually available. Usually from £17. Per club page: 'dates for purchase will be available shortly' before each match, so sales open late.

1. Open the club ticket page (genoacfc.it/biglietteria (Vivaticket)) and register an account with your real name, date of birth, nationality and email.
2. Check the fixture list for the match; the status will read on sale / members only / sold out. Italian clubs usually open general sale several weeks ahead.
3. Choose a sector (Curva = ultras/standing-and-singing, Distinti = cheaper side/corner, Tribuna = best view) and pick seats.
4. Enter the name of each ticket holder. Italian tickets are nominative: the name on the ticket must match the person's ID.
5. Pay by card and download the e-ticket (PDF or wallet/app). Some clubs add a small fee per ticket.
