The 2026-27 season at a glance
Twenty clubs play 38 rounds from the weekend of 22–23 August 2026 to 30 May 2027. There is one more midweek round on Wednesday 6 January 2027, a short pause over Christmas and no league games on the international-break weekends (15 November 2026 and 28 March 2027 in the rest of the season). Inter are the defending champions.
Kick-off times and how they change
Typical slots are Friday 20:45, Saturday 15:00, 18:00 and 20:45, and Sunday 12:30, 15:00, 18:00 and 20:45, with occasional Monday games. Between late October and late March Italy is 8 hours behind Korea: 12:30 is 20:30, 15:00 is 23:00, 18:00 is 02:00 and 20:45 is 04:45 in Seoul. The gap is 7 hours for the rest of the season.
Serie A publishes exact times in blocks of several rounds, between two and fifteen weeks ahead, and times can still move afterwards — for example around European fixtures, or when local authorities move a high-risk derby for public-order reasons. Keep some flexibility in your plans.
Named tickets: why your passport matters
Tickets in Italy are issued in the holder's name (nominativo), and you must show an original ID that matches the name on the ticket at the turnstile — for visitors, that means your passport. Changing the name on a ticket is restricted by each club, and for some high-demand matches, such as the Milan derby, name changes are not allowed at all.
This is why Enttix asks for each ticket holder's details — name exactly as in the passport, date of birth and nationality — when you book a match in Italy. Enter them carefully, because a mismatch can mean being refused entry. Clubs also set their own conditions on transferring tickets, so read the listing notes before you book.
Away sectors are usually reserved for holders of the visiting club's fan card, so as a visitor you should sit in a home or neutral area.
The derbies
Derby della Madonnina (AC Milan v Inter) at San Siro: the second meeting of 2026-27, with Inter at home, is on the weekend of 13–14 February 2027. Derby d'Italia (Inter v Juventus): Sunday 10 January 2027 at 20:45 at San Siro, and Juventus v Inter in mid-May 2027 in Turin.
The Rome derby between Roma and Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico falls on the weekends of 12–13 December 2026 and 17–18 April 2027, and Turin's derby (Juventus v Torino) is on Wednesday 6 January 2027 at 12:30. All dates are as of October 2026 and can change.
Where to sit: avoid the curve
The curved ends behind the goals (curve) are home to the organised ultras groups — at San Siro, Inter's Curva Nord and Milan's Curva Sud. The atmosphere is spectacular but standing, flags and strict group rules are the norm, so first-time visitors are usually more comfortable in the side stands (tribuna) or the long sides of the upper rings.
Every bag is searched at the gate, bottles and cans are refused and storage is rare, so travel light. San Siro remains the home of both Milan clubs in 2026-27 while plans for a new stadium continue.
Korean players in Serie A
As of October 2026 there is no Korean player in a Serie A first team. Kim Min-jae, who won the league with Napoli in 2022-23, plays for Bayern Munich. To watch Korean players in Europe this season, see the Champions League and Bundesliga guides.
