The data used to draft the report were collected by the website www.agendavenezia.org

The presentation of the annual report on cultural production in Venice has become quite a significant event. Professionals use the information as a valuable tool, allowing them to evaluate their activity in relation to the city’s cultural landscape. The rest of the community relies on the report as well.
The cultural industry in fact has a strong influence on the entrepreneurial and occupational aspects of public life, and on the possibility to experience the city, as well as its various spaces.
The report was drafted following a specific procedure as in the previous editions. It is meant to provide a detailed image of the cultural events organized in Venice and in its provinces, the questions asked are: who is producing and promoting cultural enterprises? What are the spaces designed to host them? The significant information emerging from the report is easily readable: 2.036 events, 1790 of which held in the actual city; 12.116 days events, 11.462 of which held in Venice; 150 producers and 250 sites.
Looking closer at the results, we are able to see that an important role in the life of the community is played by more occasional and independent cultural events. These affairs are organized besides the permanent structure of museums or other cultural institutions. The capability of independent promoters to work through a collaborative system is also a new and relevant reality.
