Circati, 20, played the entire game as Parma secured promotion with two rounds to spare with a 1-1 draw at Bari, ending a run of three seasons in Italy's second division.
Parma lead Serie B, three points ahead of Como and seven points ahead of Venezia.
French striker Ange-Yoan Bonny put Parma ahead in the 50th minute and then 40-year-old Valerio Di Cesare equalised for Bari to become the oldest-ever scorer in Serie B.
As a top-two finisher, Parma are promoted automatically.
SERIE A BOUND! �🇮🇹🙌— Subway Socceroos (@Socceroos) Alessandro Circati and @1913parmacalcio will be playing in Italy's top flight next season, securing promotion with two matches two spare after a 1-1 draw at Bari.#Socceroos #AussiesAbroad pic.twitter.com/omfo5dRMDcMay 1, 2024
Circati will hope to win Serie B then continue his career in Italy's top flight, though he will have no shortage of suitors on the transfer market.
The rising centre-back, christened "il muro" (the wall) by Parma's social media team earlier in the season, should also return to the Socceroos fold off the back of his club success.
He has one Socceroos cap after playing in Italy's U20s, but was left out of the Asian Cup squad earlier this year as coach Graham Arnold hoped to convince Parma to let him play for the Olyroos.
Parma ultimately wouldn't let him join the Olyroos in their unsuccessful U23 Asian Cup tilt, as he was such a crucial part of their promotion bid.
The Socceroos have a long history of players in Serie A.
