International Film Festival

The Venice Biennale and the Venice
International Film Festival are among
the most prestigious arts festivals in
the world. The former brings with it
more than 120 exhibitions of modern and
contemporary art staged in Venice’s
historic spaces, while the latter
attracts world premieres by leading
directors from around the globe as well
as arthouse productions. The combination
is truly a feast for the eye and the
mind, all set in the festive ambience of
Venice. |
 |
The Venice Biennale has for over a
century been one of the most prestigious
cultural institutions in the world. Ever
since its foundation in 1895, it has
been in the avant-garde, promoting new
artistic trends and organising
international events in the contemporary
arts in accordance with a
multi-disciplinary model which
characterises its unique nature.
|
It is world-beating for the
International Film Festival, for the
International Art Exhibition and for the
International Architecture Exhibition,
and continues the great tradition of the
Festival of Contemporary Music and
Theatre , now flanked by the Festival of
Contemporary Dance .
 
|
The Biennale promotes numerous
publishing initiatives in the same
sectors. Its visibility is high in all
the media. Through the ASAC (Historic
Archives of Contemporary Arts), the
Biennale conserves the documentation of
its history. |
About Venice: Venice, the capital
of northern Italy’s Veneto region, is built on
more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the
Adriatic Sea. It has no roads, just canals –
including the Grand Canal thoroughfare – lined
with Renaissance and Gothic palaces. The
central square, Piazza San Marco, contains St.
Mark’s Basilica, which is tiled with Byzantine
mosaics, and the Campanile bell tower.

Transportation - Directions: How
to reach Venice
By plane:
Venice’s main international airport Marco
Polo is
one of the busiest in Italy. It is also
possible to get to the “Queen of the Adriatic”
from Treviso
Airport, which is situated to the north of
Venice, approximately an hour away.
Traveling from the U.S.
There are several airlines that fly directly to
Venice’s Marco Polo Airport from the United
States, but most of these just fly during the high
season (spring, summer and autumn) like Delta
Airlines and US
Airways:
- Alitalia:
offers connecting flights from New
York, Boston and Miami.
Marco Polo Airport
The Venice Marco Polo Airport is located 4.3
miles (8 km) to the north of Venice. It is
Venice’s busiest international airport.
By train
Another way of getting to the “Serenissima” is
by train. Venice’s central train station, Venezia
Santa Lucia railway station, connects the
city with numerous countries and other Italian
towns. It
is an interesting option since you can take a
low-cost flight to Milan and
from there, take the train to Venice.
The train is also the easiest and most
comfortable way of getting to Rome or Florence,
and thus a great option for travelers
exploring the country.
By car
Venice isn’t the best place to drive to, since only
a small part of the island is accessible to
motor vehicles. Thus, you will have
to leave your car in one of the following parking
lots:
