In the season 2010–11 from Lega Pro Seconda Divisione group B, Carrarese was promoted in the play-off to Lega Pro Prima Divisione.

On 9 June 2024, Carrarese secure promotion to Serie B from 2024–25 season due to it winning Serie C promotion play-offs finals after defeat LR Vicenza with narrowly 1-0 aggregate 1-0 by a goal Mattia Finotto in 6th Minute and return to second tier after 76 years of absence.
