What is the best month to go to Venice, Italy?

Some visitors are happiest in the cooler months; others would rather have longer days. Have a look at the official Venice events calendar too, since a major event can change the feel and pace of the city. Weather always has its own plans.

Once you have a month in mind, check the dates for that year, then look up attraction opening times and local travel notices. That’s especially helpful around festivals and other large events, when transport and accommodation can be busier.

Tour schedules can change with the season, so check what is running on your dates on our Venice tour guide. Choose the time of year that suits you, and leave a little breathing room in the plan in case the weather changes.
