The sparkling and exciting Carnival appointments are waiting for you in the elegant ambience of Luna Hotel Baglioni to celebrate in the most unforgettable way the Carnival of Venice!

The Redentore is one of the Venetians’ most treasured festivities, and is a tourist attraction thanks to the spectacular fireworks display in the evening. It falls on the third Sunday in July, when Holy Mass is held in the presence of the Patriarch, followed by a religious procession. But the special moment of the festivity takes place on Saturday night: with the unbeatable backdrop of Saint Mark’s Basin, a play of lights and reflections produce a kaleidoscope of colors with the silhouetted spires, domes and bell towers of the city behind.

Enjoy Easter visiting the Museum of Fabric and Costumes in Venice, where a selection of costumes and particulary rare fabrics will leave you breathless. There is also a library specialising in the history of fabric and costumes, counting more than six thousand volumes and including a collection of more than 13,000 figurines from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries.
