Every February, Venice, known as the floating city of gondolas, pulls another trick off its hat with the Venice Carnival. This 10-day festival is the opportunity to discover Venice from a totally different angle. From masquerades to shows and parades, the whole city wakes up to new magic. If you haven\u2019t yet been to Venice, you just found the perfect excuse to visit.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

The first day of the Venice Carnival starts with a big bang with the Festa Veneziana. You want to be there early (the crowd gets huge) to grab the best spot to watch a show like nothing you\u2019ve ever seen before. The annual water parade starts as a flock of colorful gondolas sails on the Grand Canal towards Rio di Cannaregio. They carry Venetians who are all dressed up in traditional garbs and marks. Festive Italian music and the cheers of the excited spectators add to the joyful atmosphere that engulfs everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Festa Delle Marie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Date: <\/strong>As from 23rd February<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time: <\/strong>2:30pm<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

Venice recreates the magic of a traditional beauty contest that features 12 beautiful women, all dressed in the finest Venetian gowns, who are presented to the Doge of Venice (during ancient times the Doge was the leader of the city). The parade starts from San Pietro di Castello and the 12 women are carried by palanquin bearers to San Marco where they\u2019re officially presented to the public. This event is repeated for 10 days, which gives everyone a chance to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Masquerade Balls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ever dreamed of attending a masquerade ball with all the glitz and glamor of ancient times? Turn that dream into a reality at the Baglioni Hotel Luna<\/a>, which is hosting two masquerade balls during the carnival: the Moon Masquerade Party on the 23rd of February and the Great Baglioni Party on the 2nd of March. Dress up to the nines, wear a Venetian mask and you\u2019re up for one of the best nights of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

Flight of the Angel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Time:<\/strong> 11:00<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

From the moment you reach San Marco, the sight of locals dressed in Venetian costumes and masks may confuse you. Like you, they\u2019re here to attend the Flight of the Angel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Flight of the Angel is an age-old tradition that honoured the Doge of Venice. The winner of last year\u2019s Festa delle Marie will be dressed as an angel with wings clipped to her back and will jump from St. Mark\u2019s Basilica\u2019s clock tower, attached to a zipline, and will fly 100 metres down to embrace the Doge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the angel is about to leap, the tower suddenly seems even taller and it\u2019s as if time slows down as you watch each move. Will she make it safely? That\u2019s the question on everyone\u2019s mind. Once she jumps, the crowd erupts in cheers and you\u2019ll find yourself joining in. This successful jump marks the beginning of the festivities of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Mask Contest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Date:<\/strong> 24th February to 3rd March<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time:<\/strong> 15:30<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

\r\n
\r\n \n \n \n \n \n \"\"\n <\/picture> <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\n\n\n

When you see everyone donning stunning Venetian costumes and masks, you want to be a part of it too. That\u2019s exactly what you can do during the Best Mask Contest. This event is open to anyone. You just need to fill out an application form to enter and wear a mask that stands out. Who knows? You may even win one of the daily contests and it\u2019s also the perfect excuse to buy carnival masks that are sold all over Venice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atma Inaugural Event: Carnevale Del Futuro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Date:<\/strong> 1st March<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

Aman Resorts is launching its new concept Atma during the Venice Carnival. Atma will be a series of events derived from the culture of Aman\u2019s various destinations. Keeping in line with the Venice Carnival events, this launching event is called Carnevale Del Futuro, meaning the carnival of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The night will start with dinner and a live Jazz-inspired performance by the popular British pianist and vocalist Jamie Cullum at the Aman Venice<\/a>. The guests will then board a boat to the Arsenale di Venezia for the Carnevale Del Futuro, which promises to be a night full of surprises. Whether to wear a mask or not for this sensational night is all up to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flight of the Eagle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Date:<\/strong> 3rd March<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time: <\/strong>11 am<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you happen to miss the Flight of the Angel, you can catch the Flight of the Eagle, which takes place during the last few days of the carnival. This is a recent addition to the festival of Venice and is inspired by the Flight of the Angel. In the same fashion, someone jumps from the St. Mark\u2019s and flies down by zip-line to the ground. The Eagle is usually someone well-known in Italy<\/a> and previous Eagles include Italian paralympian Giusy Versace and Diesel\u2019s CEO, Renzo Rosso. The event also includes a series of parades and acrobatic performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
