The Calcio Storico final takes place every year on 24 June, the feast of San Giovanni, Florence's patron saint, in Piazza Santa Croce. The semi-finals are played earlier in June, and the day ends with fireworks over the Arno.
What is Calcio Storico?
Calcio Storico is a historic form of football, mixing elements of rugby and wrestling, played in Renaissance costume. Four teams represent Florence's historic quarters, and the matches are preceded by a grand historical parade through the city. It is one of the most intense spectacles in Italy.
How do you get to Piazza Santa Croce by chauffeur?
Santa Croce is in the historic centre, inside the limited traffic zone. Your chauffeur will drop you at the nearest permitted point and meet you afterwards. In late June it is hot, and the stands are in full sun for part of the afternoon, so a cool car waiting is welcome.
Planning your day
- Buy tickets early for the final.
- Watch the historical parade before the match.
- Bring water and sun protection.
- Stay for the San Giovanni fireworks in the evening.
