The Festa del Redentore (Feast of the Redeemer) is an iconic summer event in Venice, combining religious traditions and spectacular performances. It takes place every third Saturday in July, and in 2025 it will be on July 19.

The culmination of the festival is a spectacular fireworks display in front of St. Mark’s Square, visible far beyond Venice. Step by step, walk along the unique pontoon bridge, which, in honor of the festival, has been connecting the banks of the Giudecca Canal for just two days every year since 1577, and feel the grandeur of the tradition. At night, the sky will light up with fireworks reflected in the waters of the canals; it’s a magic that is worth seeing at least once in a lifetime!

Our Italy experts can help you organise a festive aperitif on a yacht, a dinner and concert at the Teatro San Gallo or an evening on the Venifornication ship.
