Venezianische Tage

In the organizer's words:

The Venetian Days in Schwerin are a visual feast à la Venice - only with the fairytale Schwerin Castle in the background! From September 19-21, 2025, the city center and the castle garden will become a stage for almost 300 costume and mask wearers from all over Europe, who will stroll, pose and be photographed in pompous robes and elaborately decorated masks. The highlight is the large costume parade through the old town and market, accompanied by Italian music and opportunities for gondola rides through the castle lake - an (almost) authentic Venice feeling in the middle of Schwerin!

Particularly charming: the Marienplatz-Galerie will host a colorful supporting program with mask-making, a photo exhibition and a reading with Annett Renneberg (Signorina Elettra). For you, this means: grab a mask, stroll through the market, listen to Italian sounds with a glass of wine - and feel like you're part of an elegant parade for a weekend. The museums, cafés and restaurants all around invite you to stroll and unwind.

The whole thing is free of charge, by the way, and for the third time in Schwerin - the perfect mix of art, crafts, theater and social event. So get your calendars out, pack your friends and make sure you come here on these September days - for the touch of Venice adventure here in the north!
