Ca’ di Fiore and the Venice Carnival 2025

The Venice Carnival, one of the most anticipated events of the year, celebrates this year the 300 years of Giacomo Casanova with a special edition entitled “IL TIME OF CASANOVA”, dedicated to the timeless figure of the Venetian.
The carnival will open with the special evening of “St. Valentine’s Day”, Friday 14 February in Piazza S. Marco, to celebrate love and lovers. As per tradition, however, the first weekend will be dedicated to water, with the usual water procession of traditional boats on Sunday 16 February.
For the entire duration of the event, the celebrations will cross the entire city, with outdoor shows in the various fields and squares thanks to the “Venice Carnival Street Show”, which offers a rich lineup of events in Venice, Mestre, the islands of the lagoon and the Municipality.
On Sunday 16 February the long-awaited water procession of traditional boats returns along the Grand Canal, created in collaboration with the Coordination of Rowing Associations of Voga alla Veneta and led by the legendary papier-mâché “Pantegana”.
The Venice Carnival 2025 begins from the water, with the Venetian Festival. Among colored smoke, balloons and confetti, around a hundred decorated and colorful rowing boats are driven by masked rowers who gather at Punta della Dogana around 11:00 to reach the Rialto area. After having sailed the most beautiful waterway in the world, a colorful choreography will envelop the Rialto bridge before the big party in Erbaria.

Ca’ di Fiore is ready to host those who want to reach Venice with joy and ease.
