Festa della Sensa 2026
Sunday May 17th 2026
The ancestral link between Venezia and the sea.
Festa della Sensa’s origins came about at the conclusion of a Venice peace treaty that ended the centuries-old dispute between the Papacy and the Empire.
Initially it involved a simple ceremony with the Doge of Venice visiting the sea and blessing the waters of the Adriatic. Then later, the marriage to the sea was added, showing Venice’s domination over the waters was shown by throwing a golden ring into the sea.
There’s a rowing parade composed of traditional rowing boats, with a lead boat with the mayor and other city dignitaries.
