“No more green passes to show to enter stadiums and halls, as well as to do sports or use the changing rooms.”
On the use of face masks, Gazzetta added that the latest changes may still affect other sporting facilities.

“They will no longer be needed in outdoor venues, such as stadiums, while the government is likely to decide to keep them for sports halls, as well as cinemas and theatres.”

This means that fans will no longer need to show up at stadiums with their face masks and green passes before gaining access.
Italy lifts restrictions on stadium capacity
Earlier this month, the football authority in Italy took a first step towards relaxing COVID-19 regulations as they border on fans.
Capacity restrictions in stadiums were lifted at the start of April, with more fans allowed into the venues to cheer their teams.
However, despite the relaxation, they were still expected to come with their face masks and green passes to verify their COVID-19 status.
