Why go

San Siro, officially the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, is one of the great cathedrals of world football. Opened in 1926, it has been shared by AC Milan and Inter since 1947, and its spiralling concrete towers and red roof girders, added for the 1990 World Cup, make it instantly recognisable. It has staged European Cup finals and, in February 2026, the opening ceremony of the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics.

This is also a stadium with a limited future. The clubs bought it from the city in November 2025 and in October 2026 unveiled plans for a new 71,500-seat stadium alongside, targeted to open for the 2031/32 season. Most of the old ground is then due to be demolished, with one corner kept, so a tour now is a chance to see it in its original form.

What to see

  • The San Siro Museum. Shirts, trophies and memorabilia from both clubs and their legendary players.
  • The dressing rooms. The separate AC Milan and Inter changing rooms, normally closed to the public.
  • The players’ tunnel and pitch side. Walk out towards the pitch and sit on the team benches.
  • The stands. Views of the steep bowl and its three tiers.
  • The Skywalk. A guided walk on the stadium roof, about 55 metres up, sold as a separate ticket.

Plan your visit

The Museum and Tour runs every day on a published calendar, but opening times change around matches, concerts and events, when the tour may close early or not open at all. Check the official calendar and the club fixture lists before you choose a date.

Official tickets are sold online through the stadium’s ticket site. A Museum and Tour ticket costs €37 for adults and €27 for under 14s and over 65s, with children up to 5 free, and a family ticket for four costs €24.50 each. The rooftop Skywalk adds €11 to a tour ticket or can be booked on its own. Allow about an hour and a half for the tour and museum.

To watch a game, buy through the AC Milan or Inter official sites, which sell most Serie A tickets to registered fans first.

Getting there

San Siro Stadio station on Metro line M5 is beside the stadium, and tram 16 also terminates there. Allow about 30 minutes from the city centre.

Tips

Book a weekday that is not the day of or before a match, and wear comfortable shoes for the stairs and the Skywalk. Groups are led by guides, but on busy days the tour may run self-guided, so allow extra time to read the displays.

If you are in Milan for a game, arrive early: the ramps and towers fill quickly, and the atmosphere in the Curva Sud, home of AC Milan’s ultras, and the Curva Nord, Inter’s end, is part of the experience. Public transport is the only practical way to get there on match days.

Nearby

The San Siro horse-racing track and the Monte Stella park, built from war rubble, are close by. Back towards the centre, the CityLife district has striking towers by Zaha Hadid and Arata Isozaki and a large shopping centre.
