The travel year in Venedig, month by month
The year as a table to read and to cite: crowd level for every month, plus weather comfort and temperature from the climate normals.
| Month | Crowd level0–100, season-relative | Weather comfort0–100, profile “mild” | Avg temperature |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | 1 | 24 | 5 °C |
| February | 4 | 30 | 8 °C |
| March | 6 | 43 | 11 °C |
| April | 23 | 61 | 15 °C |
| May | 37 | 64 | 19 °C |
| June | 69 | 72 | 25 °C |
| July | 90 | 64 | 27 °C |
| August | 95 | 61 | 27 °C |
| September | 54 | 65 | 22 °C |
| October | 21 | 63 | 17 °C |
| November | 5 | 46 | 10 °C |
| December | 3 | 28 | 6 °C |
The crowd level is season-relative: 100 is the annual peak of Venedig itself, not the busiest destination in Europe. The figures say when it is quiet here — not where it is quieter than elsewhere.
Weather comfort 0–100 from the climate normals, profile “mild” – the same profile as the recommendation above, not the selection in the calendar. A “–” means the data for that month is missing.
