The Feast of the Redeemer 2021
16th- 18th July
The Redentore (Redeemer) Feast is a deeply felt celebration in Venice as it combines religion with entertainment, thanks to the Saturday night phantasmagorical fireworks’ display attracting thousands of visitors: a kaleidoscope of shades, from a game of light and colours on the inimitable setting in St. Mark’s Basin, lights up the spires, domes and bell towers of the city.
This year's Redeemer Feast stands within #Venezia1600 celebrations, becoming a heartfelt moment of belonging for the City and its guests, and a moment to remember the end of the terrible plague that hit Venice between 1575 and 1577. The Redeemer, informally nicknamed "the Acclaimed Night", is part and parcel of the venetian customs: Venice residents keep on renewing culinary traditions, lores and ancestral celebrations that made this "venetian" festivity globally beloved.
