Venice's foremost rowing race, this traditional occurrence featuring rowers standing
Venice's foremost rowing race, this traditional occurrence featuring rowers standing on the lagoon's typical gondolas is held annually on the first Sunday of September with a festival that involves the whole city. The historic water parade in costume with its arrival on the Grand Canal in front of the "Machina," a floating stage for the local authorities and unbridled cheering by a multitude of enthusiasts make this occasion one of the most beautiful and exciting events in Venice.
