Top 5 Nightlife:

How and where to have a great time in Venice?

Top 5 Agenda:

On a land and on the water, there’s a lot to celebrate in Venice:

1. Carnevale

The world’s largest and most famous masked ball. Venice’s pre-Lenten Carnevale had existed since the Middle Ages, but it came into its own in the 18th century. As the Venetian Republic slipped into terminal decline, the city’s pagan side began to emerge. Carnevale became an outlet for all that had been prohibited for centuries by the strong and sober arm of the doge. Elaborate structures would be set up in piazza San Marco as stages for acrobats, tumblers, wrestlers and other performers. Masks served not only as an escape from the drabness of everyday life but to conceal the wearer’s identity – a useful ploy for nuns on the lam or slumming patricians.

"Best Design Guides Venice - Carnevale"

Where: Piazza San Marco.

When: 10 days ending on Shrove Tuesday.

2. Arena di Campo San Polo

A huge outdoor theatre is set up in campo San Polo to show current films, usually dubbed into Italian, occasionally with English subtitles.

"Best Design Guides Venice - Arena di Campo San Polo"

Where: Campo San Polo.

When: Late July-early Sept.

3. Biennale d’Arte Contemporanea & Architettura

The Biennale d’Arte, established in 1895, is the Jeux sans Frontières of the contemporary art world; its architectural counterpart draws a strong crowd.

"Best Design Guides Venice - Biennale d'Arte Contemporanea & Architettura"

Where: Giardini di Castello.

When: Art (odd years) June-Nov. Architecture (even years) Sept-Nov.

4. Festa del Redentore

The Redentore is the oldest continuously celebrated date on the Venetian calendar. At the end of a plague epidemic in 1576, the city commissioned Andrea Palladio to build a church on the Giudecca – Il Redentore (the Redeemer). Every July, a pontoon bridge is built across the canal that separates the Giudecca from Venice proper, so people can make the pilgrimage to the church. But, while the religious part of the festival falls on Sunday, what makes this weekend so special are the festivities on Saturday night. Boats of every shape and size gather in the lagoon between St Mark’s, San Giorgio, the Punta della Dogana and the Giudecca, each holding merry-makers supplied with food and drink. This party culminates in an amazing fireworks display.

Where: Bacino di San Marco, Canale della Giudecca.

When: 3rd weekend of July.

5. Venezia Suona

The name means ‘Venice plays’… and that it does, with hundreds of bands playing anything from rock to folk to reggae to jazz. Music can be heard from about 4pm onwards in campi all over the city.

"Best Design Guides Venice - Venezia Suona"

Where: All over Venice.
