20 Great Things to do in Venice 5/20 - Fireworks
Watch the New Year's Eve Fireworks from S Giorgio
Experience New Year's Eve Fireworks from a Unique Vantage Point at San Giorgio Island: This is a fresh recommendation that I stumbled upon just recently. While the traditional spot for watching the New Year's Eve fireworks is St. Mark's Square, it can get incredibly crowded, with over 70,000 people gathering there last night alone. Why not opt for a less congested yet equally mesmerizing location? Consider viewing the fireworks from San Giorgio Island, which offers a stunning backdrop of the beautifully illuminated St. Mark's Basilica and the Doge's Palace (Palazzo Ducale). This alternative location allows you to escape the crowds while still enjoying a spectacular view.
