Venice has debuted the booking platform ahead of the launch of its €5 entry fee, which is scheduled to come into effect in the spring.

Action on overtourism

Venice will introduce the €5 entry fee on 25 April, which will apply for 29 designated days of the year

Day visitors will be required to use the platform to book their visit to the historic lagoon city and pay a €5 (£4.30) fee, which will be payable on certain days of the year.

 

The €5 tariff will be trialled on 29 designated days this year – 25 April to 5 May; 11-12, 18-19 and 25-26 May; 8-9,15-16, 22-23, 29-30 June; and 6-7 and 13-14 July. It will apply to visits between 8.30am and 4pm. 

 

Upon payment, the platform will generate a QR code, which will serve as proof of payment and allow authorities to streamline visitor flows.
