How can I get a match ticket for Hellas Verona?
This is one of the most frequent questions I get asked.
Tickets are generally released a week in advance, so getting them any earlier is not usually possible.
The Bentegodi hardly ever sells out, so it's usually always possible to get tickets on match day itself from official outlets (see below), except for the most in demand games (typically end of season play offs and games against Juventus are hardest to get tickets for).
About a week before each home game (usually on a Monday), full ticketing information is released on the Hellas Verona website: www.hellasverona.it/it/biglietteria.
Can I get tickets for the Curva Sud? How much do tickets cost?
Home fans can choose from three main areas of the stadium:
The Curva Sud is the cheapest option (approx. €18). It’s the liveliest part of the stadium with limited stewarding. It’s generally standing room only, so don’t expect to find your allocated seat.
The Poltrone Est is the stand opposite the dugout/tunnel. From here you can enjoy a decent atmosphere, easy access to bars and a decent view from your seat (even if it’s not the one indicated on your ticket). Ticket price is approx. €25.
The Poltrone Ovest is above the tunnel/dugout. It also houses the VIP and media seating. A ticket here will cost you around €30.
For under 14s, tickets usually cost between €2-€5.
Ticket prices vary depending on the fixture.
Where can I buy tickets for Hellas Verona?
There are basically four official outlets for purchasing tickets for Hellas Verona:
1. HELLAS WEBSITE If you have a Tessera del Tifoso (see below), you can buy your ticket from the Hellas Verona website (www.hellasverona.it/it/biglietteria). Each cardholder can purchase up to 4 tickets.
2. HELLAS STORE Tickets are available from the Hellas Store in the city centre (via Cattaneo 2, near Piazza Brà). The shop is open from 10.30-19.30. You don't a Tessera but you will need photographic ID.
3. VIVATICKET (www.vivaticket.it) is the ONLY official ticket agent for Hellas Verona. You don't need a Tessera to purchase tickets online from Vivaticket. You will be emailed a pdf version of your ticket. If possible, I’d advise printing your ticket out (rather than relying on your smartphone) to avoid any last minute problems at the turnstile.
4. STADIUM TICKET OFFICE On match day itself you can buy tickets from the ticket office at the stadium which generally opens 3 hours before kickoff. There are usually some queues on match day, so don’t leave it too late! You don't need the Tessera but you will need photographic ID.
Do I need ID to buy a ticket?
YES! You can’t buy a ticket or access the stadium without photographic ID (such as a passport or ID card). If you purchase online, the name on the ticket should match your ID. This will be checked by stewards as you enter the stadium.
What is the Tessera del Tifoso?
If you’re a regular visitor to the Bentegodi it might be worth investing in a Tessera di Fidelizzazione (loyalty card). The Tessera is basically a fan identification card. It is not mandatory but it is useful especially if you are a frequent visitor. The Tessera costs €10 and is valid for five years. It allows you to buy tickets from the Hellas website and simplifies access to the stadium, as your ticket purchases are uploaded onto your Tessera, which you then scan at the turnstiles to enter the stadium. Even if you have a Tessera, you will still need additional photo ID to enter the stadium.

Are there any other official ticket outlets for Hellas Verona?
Tickets are also available from other outlets in and around the city (including various licensed tobacco shops, newsagents and bars). A full list is available on the Hellas Verona website.
Is it okay for 'away' fans to sit in the 'home' end?
Segregation is in place for the safety and enjoyment of all fans. If you are an away fan and find yourself in the home section, please behave accordingly. The Bentegodi is generally an extremely safe place, but temperatures can flare when opposing sets of fans mix! The exception to this is games with ‘twinned’ clubs – Sampdoria and Fiorentina – when fans mix freely in an atmosphere of friendship!
