Looking for any advice on how far out to purchase tickets. Will be there Oct 23. I see official site is just selling to July as of today. The site did say they post up tickets 6 months in advance.
If you are sure of your date purchase as soon as they are available
I went to my account and shows tickets only available June and July.
Visited Scrovengi Chapel in October and had a problem with the website not letting me buy tickets. (This was a common complaint at the time.) I came into town and went straight there and got tickets for 1 hour later so I wandered the grounds and then and visited the chapel. So while I always advocate buying "must see" tickets in advance the demand in October was pretty low when I was there.
SO very worth seeing and the grounds and additional sculptures are also worth visiting.
Assuming you arrive by train take the bus to Ponti Romani-Garibaldi or the trolley to Tram Eremitani if you're going straight to the chapel. The walk is short - just a couple of transit stops - but is uninteresting.
Enjoy!
