Hi,
Anyone else having trouble loading the Colosseo.it website to purchase the tickets to the Colosseum? I want to buy tickets for the 3rd week of May. Coopculture is selling tickets only for April. For May, there is a message asking to visit Colosseo.it which doesn't load.

Hi —
I recently purchased tickets for May. Take a look at this thread:

For sure, read thru Ruth's experience.
Make sure you're using the ticketing site and not https://colosseo.it/en/. That is official but only for information, and it only loads during hours, Rome time, the attractions it covers are open. You can purchase tickets 24/7 on the official ticketing part of the website, although you may have wait time to access it. I just got in in a minute or so but it can be longer.

Your problem is likely that tickets are not available for your dates in May yet: they go on sale 30 days in advance (and will sell out in minutes depending on the type of ticket you want to purchase). Checking general-entry tickets. I see they're on sale through May 16.
