Celebrate New Year’s Eve in Murano with Hoperà!

For your New Year’s Eve 2026 party in Venice, come and celebrate with Hoperà: dancing, music, dinner with live shows and lots of excitement are waiting for you, for an unforgettable night!

Experience a truly unique New Year’s Eve in one of the most fascinating places in the Venetian Lagoon: the Glass Cathedral. For one night only, this deconsecrated church in the heart of Murano transforms into the extraordinary stage of the Hoperà format—an event that blends elegance, taste, and fun.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll be immersed in an exclusive atmosphere where the magic of glass meets the warmth of a refined celebration. You can choose between a seated gala dinner or an elegant and convivial buffet. And when the clock strikes midnight… let yourself be swept away by the music, the toast, and the joy of welcoming the New Year at this extraordinary event with unlimited open bar.

The Grand Gala Dinner

The Grand New Year’s Eve Dinner in Venice 2026 awaits you at the Glass Cathedral. This charming Gothic building offers an intimate and theatrical atmosphere, perfect for a truly special evening.

To make everything even simpler and more convenient, you can add a shuttle service during the booking process. It includes a overnight car parking and will take you directly to the event location and bring you back at the end of the evening.

Starting from 7:00 PM, you can take your reserved seat for a complete gastronomic experience, featuring a traditional Venetian menu paired with unlimited DOC wines. If you prefer a more dynamic experience, you can opt for the Gala Buffet, also showcasing classic Venetian dishes and a fine selection of wines.

The Open Bar Party

What would New Year’s Eve be without the chance to dance the night away? At 11:00 PM, the main nave of the Glass Cathedral comes alive with the Hoperà DJ set — an explosive mix of international hits, reggaeton rhythms, and elegant vibes to welcome the new year in the most festive way possible.

The Hoperà party is designed for you to dance, mingle, and toast freely, with an unlimited open bar until 3:00 AM. You’ll be able to move between the two floors of the church, enjoy a drink by the historic glass windows, or hit the dance floor with your friends.
