Festa Del Redentore

The Festa del Redentore is a celebration of the end of a plague in 1577. The Redentore Church on Giudecca was built to give thanks and this festa is centred on the Church. A bridge of boats is built between Venice and Giudecca every year to allow worshippers to walk to the Redentore Church and take part in the religious ceremonies. On the Saturday night the whole of Venice takes to the water in thousands of small boats or take their places at tables along the banks of the canals to eat Venetian food and celebrate with friends and family. The climax of the night is a huge firework display on the water.
