If you go and attend an FC Milan match, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the many loyal Italian football fans congregating to worship their heroes; giving it its unique character. Booking a football trip to AC Milan is an experience included on many football fanatics’ bucket list!
AC Milan’s temple of football is located in the west of the city in the San Siro district, around six kilometres from the centre. Milan’s public transport is efficient, and is generally a well-integrated system. In this city, you’re easily able to explore your surroundings without much trouble. Various buses, taxis, metros and trams stop at the stadium.
San Siro is a stadium that’s easy to reach by car, although getting there by taxi is more economical. This is because of the paid parking at the stadium.
If you’re still determined to go by car (leased or otherwise), we recommend purchasing a car park ticket in advance. These can be bought at the Casa Milan ticket office, open daily from 10:00 to 20:00. You can reach the office at Via Aldo Rossi, 8, Piazza Gino Valle side.
Although it can get highly congested around the stadium on AC Milan match days, parking is extremely easy if you’ve bought your car park ticket beforehand.
The car park itself can be reached from Autostrada A4 – exit “Viale Certosa“. You can also reach the car park from Tangenziale Ovest – exit “Milano San Siro”.
Milan has one tram line that will take you to the San Siro Stadium.
Line 16, orange line from Monte Velino (Via del Turchino 13 Prima di Via Maspero).
With line 16, you can get off at various stops in the city. This is the line running from Monte Velino. Around 4.5 kilometres from the centre of Milan.
There are around 32 stops from the point of departure to the stop closest to the stadium. The stop where you’ll have to get off is called Rospigliosi Prima di Piazza Axum.
From here, the San Siro Stadium can be reached on foot in under a minute.

To give you an idea of which tickets you should purchase for the best seats in the San Siro Stadium for your football trip: AC Milan’s stadium is subdivided into four stands and three different levels. A skybox and a lounge are also provided at the first level. The sectors in the 100 series and the A-Z series are those closest to the pitch. Bear in mind that the away supporters sit in the blue section – Curva South in sectors 301 to 318.

No football trip to AC Milan is in fact complete without booking a tour of the stadium. During the “San Siro Experience”, you’re taken on a tour through this club’s history. Private tours can be booked, although this has to be by reservation. A whole range of languages are available for this tour, such as Italian, English, French, German, Portuguese, Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic and Russian.
You follow a predetermined route along which you can check out features: the Inter and AC Milan museum, hospitality rooms, the players’ changing rooms, the exclusive Mixed Zone and the pitch where you’ll walk through the impressive players’ tunnel. The San Siro Stadium takes around 30 to 40 minutes, and for the museum you should factor in around a further 50 minutes.
Please note: No tours, or only very few, are organised during match days. We therefore recommend doing the tour on a day other than match days. However, the museum is open seven days a week from 9:30 in the morning until 17:00 in the afternoon.
The price of a normal tour is €20. A reduced rate of €13 applies to children under the age of 13. Younger children (under 6) can enter free of charge.
Before attending an AC Milan match, it’s nice to go for a bite to eat and a drink in the San Siro Stadium area.
There are fortunately plenty of amazing stalls forming a ring around the stadium. Some of these offer a whole range of different beers, and there are also stalls providing the classic hamburger. You’ll also find hotdogs and typical Italian paninis.
Slightly further away from the stadium – around a five-minute walk – you’ll also easily find local restaurants in the surrounding streets. A classic among AC Milan supporters is Ristorante La Barchetta.
If it’s a football bar you’re looking for, make your way to the Offside Sports Pub, found in Milan’s centre.
Not to be missed during your stay in Milan! Here you’ll enjoy wonderful Italian food. Whether it’s a classic pasta bolognese or a quattro stagioni pizza: you’ve come to the right place here. The many reviews reveal that the service is quick and outstanding, with friendly staff who are happy to help and with big smiles. AC Milan’s stadium is only five minutes away from this restaurant: making it ideal. This place really gets you in the mood before your AC Milan match kicks off.
The restaurant opens its doors every day at 12:00 midday, closing at 14:30 in the afternoon. During the evening, the restaurant opens again at 19:00, up until 23:00.
A small pub where you can also watch football. They speak excellent English here, and visitors with a lower level of the language can also get by. The atmosphere here is relaxed, but bear in mind that a football pub such as this can get overcrowded at certain times. Nevertheless, there’s a wide selection of beers here, and there are screens everywhere in the rooms where you can watch football.
During the COVID-19, this pub is open every Wednesday and Friday, from 18:00 in the evening until 2:00 in the morning.
We will always try to seat you together, but this may not always be the case. If you buy more than one ticket, we will try to get all the seats as close together as possible, grouping you in pairs whenever we can. Different seating options can include: adjacent, diagonally, one behind the other or with a fan or stairway in between.

Once you have secured your AC Milan football trip and purchased your tickets, you will receive the following information with your ticket. Here’s a quick guide to how AC Milan football tickets work.
Side (grounds entrance): This is the point of entry to the San Siro. In this example, you enter the “Tribuna Laterale. Rosso.”
Set (section): This is the designated section within the stadium.
Fila (row): This indicates your row within the section.
Posto (seat): This is your designated seat where you will be enjoying the match.
AC Milan was founded on 16 December 1899 by Herbert Kilpin, an English professional footballer. He also came up with the world-famous slogan about the ‘team of devils’, and that’s certainly the case, because AC Milan became Italy’s national champions for the first time on 5 May 1901. That’s barely two years after the club was founded!
AC Milan is a truly legendary top club. They’re so legendary that they’d even had the most international titles of all clubs in the world from December 2007 to February 2014.
This was the club where legendary Dutch top player Marco van Basten became world famous, and clinched his Ballon d’Or. To this day, he still remains one of the most outstanding players AC Milan has ever had.
In short: if you want to enjoy a football match at one of the most successful Italian clubs of all time, AC Milan is the perfect choice. The highest level of football, guaranteed.
The AC Milan logo as we now know it has been in use since 1998, and hasn’t changed since then. This logo represents the club’s essence: the characteristic red colours, standing for fire, and black colours symbolising the opponent’s fear.
There are black and red stripes on the left. On the right you see a red cross on a white background, which is the city of Milan’s coat of arms. For decades, AC Milan’s logo was just this coat of arms, but that was eventually changed.
The most well-known nickname the AC Milan team has is “I Rossoneri”, which means “the red-blacks” The reason for this is simply because the logo and the shorts have these colours.
Milan is a metropolis, and what’s more the world’s design and fashion capital. Ticking every box for a football trip, but also fantastic for a city break or long weekend. The charming parks, typical Italian narrow streets, the many shops with luxury fashion brands, and the icing on the cake: the authentic Italian food that Italians are so proud of. That means if you’re visiting the city for an AC Milan match, there’s plenty of things to do for the rest of your stay. These are our favourite hangouts in Milan.
The Duomo cathedral is the city of Milan’s classic icon. Its construction took around five centuries. What’s more, the Duomo is easy for tourists to access, making this attraction something certainly not to be missed when visiting Milan.
Please note: Bear in mind that entry to the cathedral will be denied if you’re wearing shorts, a short skirt or clothing revealing the arms. Bags are also checked.
This world-famous shopping arcade, designed by Guiseppe Mengoni, is unique, and one of the most elegant places in Milan. Brimming with luxury stores and stylish cafés, this is an ideal spot for both tourists and locals to have a traditional Italian coffee.
Another must-see in Milan is the world-renowned mural painted by none other than Leonardo Da Vinci. This is local to the world famous and UNESCO-accredited Santa Maria delle Grazie museum.
Fun fact: the mural was created from 1495, and completed in 1498. Since then, the city of Milan has done its utmost to maintain the mural in a splendid condition.
For lovers of classical music: behold La Scala. This opera house is considered the most prestigious in all the world. For centuries now, this building has presented the music of the greatest opera composers, such as Arturo Toscanini and Antonio Votto.
The opera season starts around early December, and runs until May. However, tickets aren’t easy to get hold of. We therefore recommend contacting your hotel well in advance, so they can arrange the tickets.
We stayed in Milan but over the 4 days our trip went like this Fri- arrived in Milan, tour of San Siro and Museum. Evening in Milan City which was beaufitful Sat we travelled through to Turin to tour Juventus Stadium which was outstanding. Although getting to it was a trek once in Turin Sat night went to Ac Milan v Torino game. Which was a great experience, great seats and Torino fans were crazy..flares, smoke bombs etc..We loved it. Sunday- up early and travelled through to Venice for the day. Another beautiful place, even though the weather was awful it didnt spoil our day. Monday we travelled home
Tip: Milan was a beautiful place as was Venice but we disnt tour enough of Milan with exception of Duomo Square which qas amazing
All round it was one of the best experiences I have had. from booking it was easy an was updated when needed to know any think an the seat was excellent
Tip: I would book a extra day in any city as all ways some think more to do then watch the game i did an still needed more time.
Excellent customer service, quick responses to email queries.
Tip: Use the train to get to Milan from the airport, easy to use and only 12 euros each way.
Overall the trip went really well. The hotel was great, 3 days was the right amount of time to see the city and all the information given by football break.co.uk was usefull and efficient.
Tip: Yes, try to get information on the bus routes before you go as they are more difficult to navigate than the Metro!
The package was brilliant as it was everything we needed, meaning all we had to worry about was printing off boarding passes and match tickets. It was very easy and something that I will look to do again, without a doubt.
We didn't really need much service from FootballBreak reps, but whenever we got it, we always got polite emails full of all the information we needed and with contact numbers in case of a problem. It was a shame to see the San Siro half full due to AC Milan fan protests/decline, but the noise generated inside was still tremendous - especially from the Sampdoria fans sitting above us. As for Milan itself, it is a very pretty city full of friendly people, and is somewhere I'd like to return to.
Tip: Be careful directly by the cathedral (Duomo) as there are people who try to take advantage of tourists by forcing wristbands on you, then trying to charge you €10 per band - they will chase you too! Best bet is to keep your hands down and if anyone grabs you, pull away. Don't be fooled by their niceness. Also, go to the river (Naviglio) if you have time. It's full of bars and restaurants, plus the view at night is remarkable.
The booking process is extremely simple and straightforward with good communication and regular email updates. All documents required are sent well in time. The only tricky bit was the printing of the boarding passes on the Easyjet website. Why Easyjet insists on getting you to 'check in' online is a total mystery as you still have to check in at the airport. Long queues at the so called 'bag drop area' (check in desks really) so make sure you allow at least 45min for your 'bag drop'. Boarding is also the usual long queue and generally runs late. Flight with Easyjet need no further explanation...
We decided to use the train/metro from Malpensa Milan airport to out hotel. It is quite a long way where you have to get the (free) bus shuttle from Terminal 2 to T1 and catch the train there. The train goes via Saronno to Milan Central. From there we caught the Metro to our hotel metro station and a 10min walk. Clean and efficient trains and metro. A bit of a shock when we got to street level in the Financial District of Milan; grafiti on every building (yes really) gave the impression of a very rough neighbourhood. It wasn't until the end of the next day that we realised that every building in Milan has grafiti on some wall somewhere. Unbelievable but true. Once you get 'used' to that Milan is a truly beautiful city with friendly people and we felt pretty safe all the time.
Only in very busy places such as the Duomo Square you need to watch your purse/wallet. At those places there are also very intimidating street sellers trying to flip on wristbands with cable-ties(!). Keep your hands in your pocket and avoid them. Otherwise Milan is very enjoyable with some amazing sights, sites, shops and green spaces.
On Sunday night we watched AC Milan play at the San Ciro stadium. An amazing experience with some great Italian football. Very safe around the stadium, great atmosphere and amazing views. Instead of burger vans you get Panini vans with char-grilled peppers instead of onions. A few chip stands but very few fried food. How refreshing! Lots of AC Milan memorabilia stands of course. Hotel was superb and comfortable in a good area; some good little restaurants if you go off the beaten track. Good value too. A great experience overall and a very enjoyable weekend.
Tip: We decided to stay in a hotel as close to the San Ciro as possible and we were glad we did as the match did not finish until very late. We could walk back to the hotel and was safe to do so.
Really enjoyed our trip to Milan. It was great to visit one of the legendary stadiums of Europe and even half full the atmosphere in the San Siro was good.
Hotel Berlino was excellent. Clean, fairly quiet, friendly staff and superb breakfast. Being situated on the edge of Milan meant we had to use the trams which was easy and we enjoyed as we got to see more of the city and not just the centre.
We took a train up to lake Como where we also got to see a third division game between Como and Lumezzane in their stadium which is right on the Lake, awesome.
Overall we had a great time and the package from footballbreaks was well organized. Thanks.
The hotel near the canals in Milan was great. Good location for food and transport was close. At first like most location it was difficult to find but it was great. The seats was great and worth the price.
Being opposite the inter (away fans) was great. As a milan fan It was great to see the rivalry between the fans.
The service i received from footballbreak.co.uk was fantastic. They kept me updated with news regarding the hotel, match tickets and any possible changes to the game on that particular weekend.
This is the second time we have booked a football break with Football Break.Co.Uk and just as the last time, (watching Barcelona) everything went smoothly and we got to watch a great game at the San Siro.
We were kept up to date with information via e-mails before we left and received all the documentation in plenty of time. We were informed of a change of time to the game several weeks before which allowed us to also get to watch Juventus on the same day.
The atmosphere at both games was fantastic, with nearly full stadiums full of noisy, passionate and friendly supporters. We stayed near the San Siro so were able to walk to the game. We also had plenty of time on our break to take a stadium tour and explore the city.
We are already planning our next trip.
Tip: If you can afford it, it is worth paying a bit extra to get seats closer to the pitch.
The flights were easy and comfortable with good clear navigation to where our hotel was. Hotel was smart and tidy and in a great location. Stadium was amazing if a little empty but a great experience.
Tip: Do your research on the travel from the airport and also research the metro too! By easiest and cheapest method of travel!!!
