Welcome to the Event Home Page for
the 18th edition of the Jesolo International Sand Sculpture Festival.
Combined with our sister show the Sand Nativity, which is the second show
we produce here each year, it marks the 30th major sand exhibition we have
featured here in this fine city, that has become known as one of the oldest
and finest such shows in the European theater, and indeed, all the world.
From here you can see up to date images, and get info about
this fine sand sculpture show featuring some of the worlds best sand sculptors.

The theme of the show
this year is " La Grande Guerra:" The Great War- World War One"
There will be ten different sculpture scenes created by a top notch team of
professional master sand sculptors, assisted by eight art students from Venice.
Five of whom are returning veteran interns, continuing course study. The
artists will be working daytime hours (08:30 - 18:30), finishing the sculpting
on 10 July. But you can see the sculptures under the lights after dark, anytime,
until August 03, 2015.

There is no admission fee, and for
just the second time in over a decade, the works will be on display while
they are being created, from July 01, 2015. They will then be on display
after completion, until August 03. All for entertainment of the thousands
of visitors to Jesolo. The quaint and charismatic coastal community situated
along the north western Adriatic shore. (at Piazza Brescia, located on Via
Bafile, near La Casa Bianca, on the Jesolo Lido in regione Venice, Italy)
|
We hope you can come out to see the
works being created, in person. But if not, check the progress and see the
finished works here online. You can also "Like" Sultans Of Sand Worldwide
on Facebook, and keep up with past, present and future projects.
Thank you, and see you in the sand!
