The Grand Theatre at Piazza San Marco hosts major program events of Venice Carnival: from the Angel's Flight to the big carnival parades, the Festa delle Marie shows on Mardi Gras. You can watch the shows from the ground floor, for a full interaction with actors, masks and characters, or from the exclusive heated side boxes.
Every day, at the time of lunch (13:00 to 15:00) and dinner (19:00), the side boxes of the Grand Theatre are transformed in the most exclusive temporary restaurant in Venice.
The menu, run from the restaurants "Ai do campanili" and " Locanda Zanella" (two cult venues in Venice), interprets traditional Venetian dishes in a modern style. The ingredients are typical local vegetables, meat and especially selected fresh fish from the Adriatic see.
Five menus that interpret five characters, five masks of the carnival tradition recognized in Italy and in the World. A real gourmet experience at Venice Carnival!
