Venice expands tourist entry fee to 60 days in 2026

Venice will charge tourists an entry fee to its historic center on 60 days in 2026, costing 10 euros per day. The fee applies to day-trippers between April 3 and July 26, with a reduced rate for early bookings. This marks the third year of the fee, which aims to manage visitor numbers. Hotel guests are exempt but pay a city tax. The fee's effectiveness in deterring tourists is debated due to Venice's already high costs.
