It takes place on the second Sunday in July and is the only race which decides the running for the following year’s races. The venue for the Palio is the open sea, opposite the Terrazza Mascagni.


Effetto Venezia

It is hard to sum up what Effetto Venezia is all about.  Over the years it has developed into a complex and highly diversified combination of music, art, theatre, poetry, cabaret and crafts, with something to appeal to all ages and all tastes.

People come to Livorno from all over the region during the festival, to a highly atmospheric setting – the historic Venezia  district with its web of canals that glisten in the streetlight after dark. From 9pm each evening the area buzzes with life as visitors stroll around, taking in the spectacle, browsing around craft stalls, stopping to watch an itinerant show, or enjoying the cooler evening air from one of the many restaurant tables.
