About Chioggia-Venice Regatta
Vela al Terzo Returns to Chioggia
The Chioggia-Venice Regatta is a traditional sailing race dedicated to Vela al Terzo, the ancient sail rig typical of Venetian lagoon boats. The regatta connects Chioggia, in the province of Venice, to the lagoon capital, reviving a centuries-old nautical heritage.
Historic Vessels and Lagoon Culture
The event is organized by the Vela al Terzo Venezia Association in collaboration with Vento di Venezia, and is part of the Vela al Terzo Championship calendar. The protagonists are the characteristic Vela al Terzo sailboats, true living witnesses of the Venetian maritime tradition.
