In Venice, the last night of the year is lit up by the firework show that, reflected in the Lagoon, illuminates the city with colours and lights, in an enchantment that has no equal in the world.
The amazing skyline of Venice shines bright under the midnight moon, its shapes standing out in the night and going through all shades and hues for a few instants. Burned in our eyes and our hearts, these are images we will cherish for a lifetime. Venice never disappoints us, and how could that even be possible?
The fireworks show will accompany us to the end of the year and the beginning of a new one while standing in a place of magic, the priceless feeling of being in the right place and the right time to live the moment of all moments in the place of all places. A collective rite, heads upwards, with the long embankment of Riva degli Schiavoni, Riva Ca’ di Dio, Riva San Biagio, Riva Sette Martiri as the stage of the city admiring itself in the mirror of the lagoon waters. An image that cannot be replicated anywhere else in the world. May this midnight of December 31 be a moment to leave it all behind or to bring on to the new year however many good things last year gave you, starting with the myriad colours Venice dons tonight, just for you.
