2In Venice, the REGATA STORICA is the main attraction of the annual Voga alla Veneta rowing event. A series of races in different categories delights the crowds, with teams of young people, women, men, and assorted boat types. There is a spectacular parade to kick off the celebrations in flamboyant style with a procession of 16th-century-style boats which make their way along the Grand Canal – even the gondoliers are dressed in period costume to add to the excitement. 2 September.www.regatastoricavenezia.it
