  • Planning on visiting Italy in the weeks before Lent begins (usually late February, early March)? Hit the streets of Venice to partake in Carnevale, the most ornate Mardi Gras celebration in Italy. Bring cash, too, because mask vendors don't take credit cards!

    Carnival: Fizzy Goodness
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • The drink of Carnevale is "Bellini", a peach flavored sorbet. Tents are set up in San Marco which sell Bellini, and spiced wine, by the cup or bottle. (We chose bottle!).
