Calcio Storico Seats -- Any in the Shade?
Hello Lourdes,
Very excited to be visiting Florence during the Feast of San Giovanni, and to have to chance to witness the Calcio Storico in person. In fact, our apartment is just about 3 minutes walk from the Piazza de Sante Croce, so I don't think we could avoid it if we tried! <grin>
I'm hoping you can tell me a bit about how sunny/bright the piazza is during the match. My wife has low vision and if she sits in direct sunlight the glare makes it almost impossible for her to see. Are any of the seating areas in the shade or out of the direct sunlight at that time of day? Also, how quickly do the seats tend to sell out? I am planning to get up at 4:00AM local time this Monday (I'm in Texas, USA) to log on and buy tickets -- does it tend to sell out immediately? Just wondering how difficult it is to get seats.
Thank you,
