La Mostra del Cinema

The Definitive Venice Film Festival Experience

Since 1932, the Venice Film Festival has drawn the world's most celebrated filmmakers, actors, and cultural luminaries to the Lido. VIPMAKKI transforms your attendance into an immersive experience that extends far beyond the screenings — from the moment your private water taxi arrives at the Palazzo del Cinema, to the final toast at a candlelit palazzo overlooking the Grand Canal.

Red Carpet Premieres

Walk the red carpet of the world's oldest film festival. VIPMAKKI secures the most coveted premiere invitations — the competition entries that define a generation of cinema. Your arrival at the Palazzo del Cinema is choreographed with the precision of a film itself: private water taxi to the Lido, VIP credentials waiting dockside, and a prime seat inside the Sala Grande as the director and cast take their bows.

Yacht & Palazzo After-Parties

The true Venice Film Festival happens after the credits roll. VIPMAKKI arranges your private table at the most exclusive after-parties — aboard superyachts moored at the Lido, within candlelit palazzi along the Grand Canal, and at the invitation-only gatherings where directors, producers, and stars continue conversations begun on the red carpet. A private water taxi waits to transport you between venues throughout the night.

Beyond the Festival

Venice during the Biennale is the most captivating city on earth. Private tours of the Doge's Palace after hours, a private concert in a 16th-century church, a Michelin-starred dinner at Ristorante Quadri overlooking Piazza San Marco, a dawn gondola serenade through empty canals. VIPMAKKI ensures your Venice experience extends far beyond the cinema screen, into the very soul of La Serenissima.
