About Venezia FC
Venezia FC is a professional football club and a cultural enterprise based in Venice. Founded in 1907, it embodies the spirit of the lagoon through identity-driven football, sporting integrity, and a bold aesthetic.
The first team plays its home matches at Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo, Italy’s second-oldest stadium, located on the island of Sant’Elena, adjacent to the Venice Biennale.
Throughout its history, the club has competed primarily between Serie A and Serie B, where it currently plays. The organization strives for sporting excellence at all levels, with men’s, women’s, and youth teams driven by the same ambition, discipline, and aesthetic sensibility.
Owned by Venezia FC SpA, the club follows a long-term strategy focused on sustainable growth, enhancing its sporting heritage and brand value, and maintaining solid corporate governance.
The management team, composed of Italian professionals with international experience, works to deliver concrete results on the pitch while also promoting civic engagement and cultural innovation.
Venezia FC is more than a football club: it serves as a platform for partners, investors, and supporters seeking a deeper connection to sport, culture, and shared values. The club’s proposition combines tangible assets – infrastructure, merchandising, media rights – with intangible ones: emotional identity, symbolic capital, and the global magnetism of the city of Venice.
