Football Trips to Como

Lake air, narrow old streets, seaplanes lifting from the water and blue-and-white colours drifting towards the ground: football trips to Como feel different from the first hour. With Football Travel, flights, carefully selected hotels and official match access come together in one package, backed by our ticket guarantee. After sending over 50,000 travelers since 2008, we know why Serie A by the lake has become so tempting.

Start in the old town

A football trip to Como should begin on foot, somewhere around Piazza San Fedele. The square still has that lived-in rhythm: shutters opening, locals crossing the cobbles, and Bar San Fedele serving its familiar crowd as it has done since 1989. From there, the old town pulls you gently towards the Lake Como waterfront.

Arrive in daylight if you can. The mountains sit close, the lake catches the sky, and the rationalist lines near the water make the walk towards Viale Puecher feel like part of the build-up. Life Electric, Diga Foranea and the promenade all lead naturally towards Stadio Comunale G. Sinigaglia at Viale Giuseppe Sinigaglia 2, close enough to reach from the centre without breaking the spell.

• Start with coffee near Piazza San Fedele, then let the lanes carry you towards the water.
• Pause at Life Electric, where the lake opens wide and the mountains frame the day.
• Follow the waterfront towards the ground as colours, scarves and chatter begin to gather.

Our packages for a Serie A trip to Como make that rhythm easy to enjoy, whether you choose a calm Saturday by the water or a sharp autumn fixture.

Stadio Comunale G. Sinigaglia by the water

Stadio Comunale G. Sinigaglia is the reason this journey stays in the memory. Built in 1926–1927 and opened on 30 July 1927, it was designed by Giovanni Greppi and named after Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Its capacity is 12,064, with 700 places in the away sector, which gives every big night a rare sense of scarcity.

Gianni Brera famously called it the world’s most beautiful football ground because of its setting, and it is easy to understand why. Tempio Voltiano, Monumento ai Caduti, Novocomum and Aero Club Como all sit close by. The Aero Club was founded in 1930, and the sight of seaplanes moving beside the football setting gives the place a character no arena inland can copy.

For sought-after dates, such as one of the season’s hardest-to-access evenings or a heavyweight home date, the small capacity makes official access especially important.

• The lake is not a backdrop here; it is part of the walk, the light and the mood before kick-off.
• The compact size keeps the noise close, so every song seems to bounce off concrete and water.
• The address, Viale Giuseppe Sinigaglia 2, places the game within walking distance of the old town.

Bar Pino before kick-off

Just before the turnstiles, the local ritual gathers at Bar Pino on Viale Massenzio Masia 48, by the north-west corner of the ground. It began as a kiosk in the 1970s, before Giuseppe “Pino” took over in 1989. Today Paolo Scanziani runs a place that feels stitched into the club’s weekly rhythm.

It sits beside the Aero Club and close to the home end, so the final hour before the game has a very Como flavour: football stickers, old shirts, scarves folded over arms, familiar faces nodding through local chatter. This is not a polished stop added for visitors. It is part of how the day breathes.

Afterwards, the town turns back to the lake. Lake fish, perch risotto, missoltini and polenta fit the evening better than anything rushed. Trips such as a night when the lakefront tightens with noise or a colourful weekend on the Lario leave space for both football and the table.

A club rising fast

The scenery would be enough on its own, but Como has also become one of Italy’s most fascinating football stories. After bankruptcy, the club restarted in Serie D in 2017/18. SENT Entertainment Ltd acquired it on 4 April 2019, then came the climb: Serie C glory in 2020/21 and a return to Serie A after the 2023/24 season.

The surge did not stop there. Como finished 4th in Serie A in 2025/26 with 71 points and qualified for the 2026/27 Champions League. With Cesc Fàbregas as head coach on a four-year contract, the project now carries a pull that reaches far beyond Lombardy.

That rise makes major home fixtures even more scarce. At Stadio Comunale G. Sinigaglia, demand meets a small capacity, and the lakefront turns electric long before the first whistle. With us, the package includes the key parts in one place, so you can focus on the walk, the colours and the football. For the biggest occasions, the kind of headline game that disappears quickly and a demanding Lombardy occasion show exactly why Como now belongs on every serious fan’s map.
