Venice

The countdown has begun. From January 16, 2023, visitors to Venice, Italy will have to pay to enter the city. In this way, Venczia becomes the first city in the world to require an entrance fee. Such a decision was announced by Venice's tourism advisor, Simone Venturini, in a press conference today.

Venturini called the new measure a major revolution and a solution to the overcrowding problem the city has struggled with for decades.

The cost of the ticket will vary from a minimum of 3 euros to 10 euros. The price will not be fixed, but will vary according to the number of visitors: The more requests for entry, the higher the cost.

Venturini explained that the goal is not to close the city, but to make people reserve their presence in this city to reduce overcrowding.

"Venice is a living city and it should stay that way," he said.

The ticket reservation system and its online platform will be unveiled this fall.

Budget Advisor Michele Zuin said there are many exceptions to the ticket purchase.

Residents and children under the age of 6 will be excluded, as well as disabled people, homeowners, those coming to the city for health reasons or to visit relatives and those coming to participate in a sporting event or cultural.

"It is not a system to make money, but to manage tourist flows," Zuin emphasized.

The revenue from the entrance fee will go towards reducing the taxes of the Venetians, which are already too high due to the large volume of tourists that need to be accommodated.

The entrance fee will apply to the historic center of Venice and the following islands:

Lido di Venezia, Pellestrina, Murano, Burano, Torcello, Sant'Erasmo, Mazzorbo, Mazzorbetto, Vignole, S. Andrea, La Certosa, S. Servolo, S. Clemente and Poveglia.
