This celebration has a bit of folklore, a little bit of religious tradition and, quite frankly, some cross dressing, but all in good fun. The annual Regatta of Epiphany Witches usually takes place on the day of the Epiphany, January 6. All of Italy celebrates this 12th day of Christmas, but Venice is unique with its kitschy take on historic tradition. Witched-up men race their boats across Canal Grande until reaching the giant stocking hanging from Rialto Bridge. Admission is free.
