Venice Carnival 2027

Date: 2027-02-06

Venue: Piazza San Marco and historic city, Venice, Venecia

The Venice Carnival is the oldest masquerade in the Western world: 18th-century costumes, commedia dell'arte masks and a city that becomes a theatre for ten days. The costume competition in San Marco, masked balls in private palaces and the angel's flight over the square are the most photographed moments. Book accommodation at least six months ahead — prices triple.
