Venice Carnival 1999

The next edition of the Carnival will be characterized by the commemoration of the most celebrated festival in the last millennium from working class festivals to grand balls in palaces for the noble.

During the Carnival, city streets will be filled with street artists such as jugglers, mimes, acrobats, fire eaters, and many more. The streets will also be open to anyone who would like to put on any kind of performance.

The Grand Canal will be lit up by torches during this period just as there will be many dances in the most beautiful Venetian palaces.

In Campo S. Margherita, there will be a variety of entertainment everyday especially for youth, while children gather together at Campo San Polo.

If you would like to have a taste of the authentic folk spririt, "Vecio Carneval di Via Garibaldi" awaits you…
