Visit to Biennale Exhibition and Biennale Pass

Banner Biennale 500x500VIU students have the opportunity to buy a special 3-day pass for visiting the two seats of the Venice Biennale Exhibition. The pass costs 20 euro per person and allows 3 entrances (even on non-consecutive days) to Giardini and Arsenale venues.

The cost of the pass is sponsored by VIU for the students of the course S2201 History of Venice, since the visit to Biennale is a co-curricular activity of their course. 

All VIU students and faculty can buy a pass, just signing the list at the Front Office and bringing the ticket amount by Friday, April 15 at noon.

The pass is nominal and will be available to pick up after the midterm break.

 

A guided visit to the Giardini venue is organized on Friday, April 29, at 4 pm, for the students of the S2201 History of Venice course, as a compulsory co-curricular activity. Places are available for other students and professors. The visit will be at the Giardini Pavillions.

 

 

 

N.B. The tickets are nominal. Please remember to bring your ID/Passport during the visit, otherwise you may be denied access to the Biennale at the ID check.

For info: come to the VIU Front Office or write to frontoffice@univiu.org
