July 2024…// Every third week of July since the 16th century the iconic city of Venice plays host to La Festa del Redentore – with the main hub of celebrations surrounding the Church of Redentore on Giudecca Island. One of the most popular and highly-anticipated local celebrations featuring decadent feasts, traditional regatta and a phenomenal display of fireworks, this was once an occasion commemorating the end of the devasting plague of 1575 – 1577.
Taking place on Saturday July 20th 2024, Hilton Molino Stucky Venice’s prime location on Giudecca boasts panoramic views overlooking the city and the Giudecca Canal – offering the ultimate setting to enjoy the lively celebrations for a truly Venetian Festa del Redentore experience. Guests are encouraged to soak up the special local atmosphere on this historic day by strolling around the banks of the Giudecca Canal and to cross the temporarily built bridge that connects the Redentore Church to Zattere before the evening celebrations commence.
To celebrate the special day, Hilton Molino Stucky Venice is delighted to host their annual and hugely popular evening culinary experiences. The two dinner options to book include:
Aromi Restaurant Dinner Experience by the Lagoon
(380 Euros / £321* per person with wine pairing. Also includes access to the rooftop pool terrace to watch the firework display.)
Savour the elegant atmosphere of the lagoon-side Aromi Restaurant and indulge in a special five-course menu with wine pairing, created by talented Executive Chef Ivan Fargnoli.
