The 2022 edition of the Venice Carnival will run from February 12 to March 1, and is entitled “Remember the future”—a homage to Salvador Dali’s quote “And most of all, I remember the future.”
This edition of the Carnival will be both on-line and on-site. The (reduced) traditional on-site events will be completed by the on-line virtual show, in order to involve all kinds of audience from all over the world, including those who wish to participate remotely.
