A plunge into the past, between nobility and rural life, but also a journey to discover a territory. These are the main ingredients of Riviera Fiorita, the historical reenactment now in its 48th edition, scheduled this year from Wednesday 9 to Sunday 13 September.
The great festival of Riviera del Brenta is one of the most anticipated events for both guests and residents, who unite for four days driven by a passion for culture and traditions of this splendid area of the Metropolitan City of Venice.
A plunge into the past, between nobility and rural life, but also a journey to discover a territory rich in excellence and traditions that are passed down and continue to be preserved and safeguarded as a precious asset.
These traditions are fundamental for maintaining the sense of identity, community and belonging. Riviera Fiorita is not just a historical reenactment but a grand festival, aiming to enhance the artistic heritage of la Brenta, the ancient waterway that winds through a unique natural context.
The calendar of initiatives for the 2026 edition, in addition to the most beloved traditional events such as mini-tours in gondola, walks side by side with nobility, visits to historic centers and historic villas, will be enriched with new encounters, parties, and unmissable news.
To experience the festival in serenity in what is considered an authentic "bucolic paradise" as defined by the British newspaper "The Guardian".
As always, the water parade, along the Naviglio Brenta from Stra to Malcontenta, will represent the highlight event on Sunday 13 September and will be made possible thanks to the always precious and indispensable availability of the rowing societies of Voga alla Veneta.
