50° Vogalonga

VENICE, MAY 24th 2026

THE 50TH EDITION
Vogalonga is an act of love for Venice and the waters that surround it, for its lagoon and its islands, for rowing and its boats, and it maintains over time the purpose for which it was created: to spread knowledge and conscious respect for the nature and culture of our city.
A 30-kilometer route between the lagoon, its small islands, and the magnificent Grand Canal: a non-competitive journey that celebrates the beauty and tradition of Venice.
8000 ROWERS
Each year, rowers from every corner of the world gather in Venice to follow the historic route of Vogalonga. Men and women, boys and girls enjoy and get excited, with effort and great satisfaction.
