    Venice Carnival attracts every year hundreds of people wearing stunning costumes and happy to celebrate carnival

    Every year hundreds of thousands visit Venice during the Venice Carnival, to admire the incredible Venetian costumes that can be seen walking around in Venice.

    People come to Venice from all over the world, and a special mention here goes to France, to celebrate Carnival the way it is meant to be, with masks, costumes, balls, and parties.

    This way of celebrating gives the sensation of being part of a movie, or to be sent back to the time of the Serenissima.

    In the past, Carnival was synonymous with excesses.

    Today, it is a moment during which some Venice and Carnival lovers gather to celebrate the most known Venice festivals wearing exceptional handmade costumes and masks.

    Words cannot describe the beauty or fun of Venice Carnival costumes, so we created a vast gallery portraying some of the most spectacular costumes we captured on our walks in the Saint Mark’s area.

    And here, as promised, are our photos of the many costumes we encountered and enjoyed the most over the past years.
