Frequently asked questions
Do I need to print my ticket, or is a mobile ticket accepted?
Your booking confirmation can be presented on a mobile device. There is no requirement to print, but having a screenshot saved offline is a sensible precaution in areas with poor signal.
Which parts of the Colosseum does this ticket cover?
Your ticket includes access to the 1st and 2nd tiers and the Colosseum Museum exhibitions. It does not include the Arena Floor, the Underground (Hypogeum), the Attic levels, or the S.U.P.E.R. Sites.
Can I visit all three sites on the same day, or split them?
The ticket is valid for 24 hours from the moment it is first scanned, so you can visit the Colosseum in the morning and return to the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill later in the day.
Is ID really required, and what counts as valid ID?
Yes — a valid passport or government-issued ID that matches the name on your booking must be presented at the Colosseum. Anyone unable to show matching ID will be denied entry, regardless of having a valid ticket.
Are children able to visit, and is there a reduced price for them?
Children under 18 are welcome but must be accompanied by a paying adult. Check the ticket options at checkout for any child pricing that may apply.
What is the difference between the three ticket options?
The standard option is a timed-entry slot with audio guide. The 'with Coffee' option adds a coffee experience and uses date-only (rather than timed-slot) booking. The 'Hosted' option includes a host to assist with entry logistics. All three include the audio guide and the same site access.
