Venice Cabaret 💃
The show was very interesting except the overall cost which dampened it. The cost for the show with food is fine. Food was ok ok. Can be better. But a disclaimer needs to be added while booking that the cost of transport from Venice may be more than the show. Specially, since the show ends at midnight.

Must experience when in Venice!
I was very apprehensive at first from reading some reviews. But we were very very pleasantly surprised! Everything was amazing . It was quieter than we expected but since it was the first day after the carnival it was understandable. They were more than made up for it with free flieing Presseco on arrival. Amazing artist with a wide range of acts. The food was ok as it was different to the menu we thought we were getting but that did not hinder our evening . We had a beyond expectation experience and amazing value. Thank you.

Avoid: Poor Food and Unauthentic Experience
The venue is located in the middle of nowhere. My sister and I traveled alone from Venice, which felt a bit unsafe, and on top of that we had to spend around €70 on taxis. I am honestly shocked by the positive reviews, especially regarding the food. This was the worst dinner I’ve ever had. The food was completely inedible — poor flavor, terrible presentation — and we sent almost everything back. A huge disappointment and a bad representation of Italian cuisine. The performers were talented and had good energy, but when attending a cabaret show in Venice, you expect something authentically Italian. Instead, we got English covers and even a Michael Jackson tribute, which felt completely out of place. The seating arrangement also makes it uncomfortable to enjoy the show, especially if you’re seated with your back to the runway. Overall, this experience is not worth the money — not for the food, not for the show, and not for the comfort. I do not recommend this event at all.

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Avanspettacolo: Cabaret Dinner Show in Venice start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
