Easter egg hunts
For a fantastic Easter egg hunt The Chateau Vaux Le Vicomte is an ideal spot for the whole family. Located just outside Paris, it holds Easter egg hunts throughout Easter Sunday and Easter Monday, and also offers free workshops in chocolate making, origami, face painting and more. Another option is Paris’ Galeries Lafayette’s Big Easter Hunt where your little Easter bunnies have one hour to scour the store for every last shiny wrapped egg and delicious chocolate bean before the Grande Chase aux Oeufs is over.

From the 11th to 21st of February, and with a colourful preview on February 4th and 5th, we are going to celebrate and remember Venice as the ancient capital of modern theater - with over 25 active theaters throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth century. Furthermore we are going to recall the sense of disguising: the discovery of a new “character” of our personality through the wearing of a costume. We want the festival to turn into a major event of performing arts, in which each visitor of the city becomes a protagonist of this famous Festival that is a fundamental part of our country’s cultural heritage.
