AGENDA 2026 – Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia

The 2026 programme of the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia, provides a snapshot of a cultural system in excellent health, growing in terms of the quality of its offerings, the breadth of its proposals and structural investments and its ability to attract increasingly numerous and diverse audiences. With its 13 venues, together with storage facilities, libraries, spaces, new projects and construction sites, MUVE is increasingly playing a leading role as an encyclopaedic multi-site museum, offering a calendar of exhibitions, permanent installations and initiatives for the city throughout the year and beyond.

The year 2026 consolidates MUVE’s role as an integrated cultural system, ranging from archaeological research – with the major exhibition at the Doge’s Palace dedicated to Etruscans and Veneti. Acque, culti e santuari – to the history of the Serenissima, Venetian cultures and the Venetian lagoon, with the renovation of the Museo Correr, the enhancement of the Museo di Torcello and the research undertaken by the Museo di Storia Naturale. Nor should we overlook music and the theatre, the art of the ‘civilisations of the eighteenth century’ with the museums of Ca’ Rezzonico, the Museo di Palazzo Mocenigo and the Casa di Carlo Goldoni, and the investigations into the modern, contemporary and current worlds, with Jenny Saville at Ca’ Pesaro and Erwin Wurm at the Museo Fortuny. And, last but not least, the know-how and new artistic productions, responding to the needs of culture, people, visitors – everyone.
