Introduction

For tourists who want to find out the magic of the Venetian night, you cannot miss the Spritz, called spriss in the region, the Veneto aperitif par excellence based on white wine, heavily carbonated water (seltz), Aperol or Campari and a slice of orange. Certainly on an empty stomach, there is not much road, so why not get delighted with one of the typical Venetian specialties? There is, to try, Venetian street food: the ‘scartosso’, that is, a fried food served in a cone-folded sheet of paper, to be eaten while strolling the street. Where to eat well and spend little in Venice? Two-day itinerary in Venice? and How to get to the islands of Venice?

1) What to do in Venice at night? TO STROLL ON THE RIALTO BRIDGE

Once fed, we can only be enchanted by the wonderful Venice. Returning to your tour, go to the Rialto Bridge, a great vantage point, where you can admire the Venetian life that flows punctuated before your eyes. Fascinating are the boats of every shape and size, the gondolas and the ferries, each of which follows its own route. Many of these sound the siren, others pass with the music in high volume, involving in an imaginary reality, in a world that seems made of water.

2) What to do in Venice at night? ENJOY ST MARK’S SQUARE

After the Rialto Bridge, go to one of the most photographed places in Italy, St Mark’s Square. Populated by day, St. Mark’s Square changes at night, when there are few people; its light shines, with its porticoes, the campanile and the winged lion (symbol of Venice), which seems to be placed there, as protector of the square itself.

3) What to do in Venice at night? ADMIRING THE DOGE’S PALACE

Walk two steps further and, at the angle of the Doge’s Palace there is the Bridge of Sighs, one of the most photographed places in Venice. If you can also take a photo close to the sunset time your photos will be amazing too. The bridge is much appreciated and photographed, but it hides a somewhat unhappy route: the convicts who took a last breath of freedom before being accompanied and contained in the Serenissima prisons.

4) What to do in Venice at night? TO CONTEMPLATE THE GRAND CANAL

As a last step, before falling “into the arms of Orpheus”, get another glimpse of the Grand Canal, possibly from the Accademia Bridge, one of the most deserved remaining times in Venice. The advice I allow myself to give you is to take lots of pictures. The magic of these places deserves to be immortalized in memories, so that they will never be forgotten.

5) What to do in Venice at night? LIVING NIGHTLIFE

For the youngest or for those who want to fully enjoy their own Venetian holidays, after having immersed a surreally peaceful Venice, just pass the Accademia Bridge to immerse yourself in the Venetian nightlife.

Campo Santa Margherita (Santa Margherita Square)

It is the meeting point for young Venetian university students or one of the many small squares scattered throughout Venice, further away from St Mark’s Square where it reigns the typical atmosphere of the people who live in Venice and not of the normal tourists looking only for places to take photographs. It remains therefore to choose the place that attracts you most among so many in the region.

6) What to do in Venice at night? TO GET INVOLVED IN THE ANCIENT ATMOSPHERE

If instead you want to immerse yourself in the atmospheres of an ancient Venice, you must absolutely go to St. Mark’s Square and sit at the historic coffee tables of Venice, where accompanied by the sweet music of the orchestra, you can enjoy an evening in the most elegant lounge from Europe as the illustrious characters who have frequented these places throughout the centuries were used to.

7) What to do in Venice at night? TO GO TO THE THEATER

For lovers of Venice Theater, the theater offers a rich calendar of events organized in the city’s three theaters: the historic La Fenice theater, the Goldoni theater and the Malibran theater.

8) What to do in Venice at night? TO LISTEN TO MUSIC

Music also has its place in the city: there are many Baroque music concerts organized in churches or on the noble floors of palaces.

Hotels I recommend in the San Marco area

San Marco is the most famous neighborhoods of Venice and, at some times of the year, it is difficult to walk around, because the city is crowded.

Hotels I recommend in Castello Area

Castello is the largest of all the “sestieri” (neighborhoods) and has an incredible waterside for good walks, in addition to being full of cafes, bars and shops. They are not cheap places to stay, but it facilitates access to the most famous tourist spots and, with that, saves on transportation, as it is possible to do everything on foot!

Hotels I recommend in the Santa Croce Area

Santa Croce is home to the important bus station in Piazzale Roma, which makes it very easy to get off the beaten track, including going to Santa Lucia if you want to make a stopover.

Don’t want to stay on the island? No problems! Search for Mestre, Campalto or Favaro Veneto, which are the mainland cities of Venice and offer excellent accommodation options. A little further from Piazzale Roma, about 20 minutes by water transport, they do not have magnificent views from the bedroom windows, but it is ideal for those who want to save on accommodation.

Tips

The tip to save A LOT is to book your hotel in advance.
As we also mentioned: beware of excess baggage! It is very complicated to get around with large volumes in Venice because of the bridges, stairs and narrow streets.
