Venice is the capital of the Veneto region, and once commanded a vast maritime empire. It rose to great prominence under the rule of its Doges when the arts flourished. Their legacy can be seen at every turn in this extraordinary city of canals, bridges and alleys. Venice is easily explored on foot, but perhaps the most exciting introduction is to take to the water on a vaporetto (“water bus”) down the Grand Canal or across the lagoon from Punta Sabbione. The main shopping is in the Mercerie, linking two focal points of the city, the Rialto Bridge and St Mark’s Square. Here the Doge’s Palace, St Mark’s Basilica and the campanile never fail to impress.
View mapBands will love the lively squares of Lido di Jesolo, where concerts take place from 9pm most nights in summer. Similar resorts along the coast offer comparable venues, while the historic inland towns of Treviso, Vicenza and Bassano del Grappa also present regular outdoor appearances by visiting groups. Choirs and orchestras will be thrilled to perform in one of Venice’s glorious churches such as Il Redentore and Saint George’s Church. For choirs seeking an exciting Mass performance, the Basilica di Sant'Antonio offers an impressive chapel, large, welcoming congregations, and a momentous atmosphere.

Our groups stay in the nearby seaside resort of Lido di Jesolo. Coach access is easy and the hotels are more spacious and much better value. All our hotels are within a few metres of the sandy beach as well as being close to shops, cafés and pizzerias. We use a variety of 2 and 3 star hotels in Lido di Jesolo, which provide very good group accommodation.
We accept any group as long as they are used to performing together as an ensemble, even if only to their fellow students and parents. We always ask for a recent recording of your group and we have range of venues on offer that will welcome beginner groups as well as experienced ensembles.
As there is sometimes a significant time difference between us and you, email may be the best way to keep in touch with us. Alternatively, our office opening hours are 0800-1730 (GMT) should you wish to talk to us. Our phone number is +44 20 8772 6446.
We can send you mini-brochures to hand out at your rehearsals and a PowerPoint presentation for assemblies and parent’s meetings you may wish to hold. We also have a promotional poster to put up around your school, which you can download here. This will make it easier for you to get your students excited about your plans.
