CARNIVAL EXTRAVAGANZA
THE FULL CARNIVAL EXTRAVAGANZA IN A SINGLE MASKED EVENT
There is a place in Venice that Giacomo Casanova knew well. A frescoed ballroom, frequented by nobles, adventurers, and seducers, where the 18th-century carnival burned in its most unbridled and sumptuous form. It is called the Salone del Ridotto, now part of the Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal, and every year during the Venice Carnival it comes back to life exactly as it once was. The full extravaganza of carnival in a single evening — because carnival in Venice means stepping into another era, witnessing breathtaking performances, and becoming an accomplished dancer for one night.
A lavish cocktail hour will welcome guests, followed by a seated four-course dinner in the main hall, paired with regional wines. The main courses feature fish, though vegetarian and meat options are available upon request. Please notify us of any dietary restrictions or allergies at the time of booking.
The entire evening will be accompanied by live music from the orchestra, dressed in period costumes, setting the rhythm of the festivities with arias and duets, dance performances, and imaginative spectacles. Guests will have a front-row seat to moments of musical and theatrical entertainment, where performers in the magnificent costumes of Atelier Tiepolo will be joined by a baroque ensemble.
The highlight of the evening will be the period dances, where guests become the true stars of the celebration. Under the expert guidance of Dance Masters, every participant will have the chance to learn the basic steps of the European court dances of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Doors open at 8:00 PM, and wearing a period costume is required — available for rental at Atelier Tiepolo. A coat check service will be provided, and an elevator is available for guests with mobility needs.

Hotel Monaco

Dandolo Palace, Ridotto Main Hall


The palace of the noble Dandolo was the first place to accomodate the "Ridotto", public gaming rooms from 1638 till 1774. It used to be open during Carnival, which lasted several months, and during that time Giacomo Casanova considered the Ridotto as the stage setting and backdrop for his conquests.
