The arena floor, underground and upper tier are separate tickets. How they work

What the standard ticket covers

The 24h ticket gives entry to the Colosseum at the time you book, plus the Roman Forum and Palatine archaeological area, and any exhibitions running in both. As the name says, it is valid for 24 hours.

The arena floor, the underground and the upper tier are not included. The box office sells them as separate Full Experience tickets with their own entry time.

Tickets carry your name

The box office issues every ticket in the visitor’s name. A name can be corrected only once, and no later than midnight seven days before the visit: for a typing error, a mix-up in ticket types, or a serious documented reason. That is why we ask for each visitor’s name in Latin letters, as in the passport.
