The Grand Canal Shoppes 
Luxury Shopping Venue Brings Venice To Vegas At The Venetian

Serenading gondoliers and Venetian glassblowers are just some of the authentic Venetian details that redefine shopping in the Grand Canal Shoppes at the Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino. The luxurious 500,000-square-foot indoor mall combines the beauty of Venetian cobblestone walkways, arched bridges and winding canals, with an unparalleled mix of exclusive shops - some of them not just exclusive to the area, but also to the country.

A one-quarter mile Venetian streetscape filled with authentically designed neighborhoods will transport shoppers to the festival-like atmosphere of old world Venice. Featuring an intimate piazza-style setting, The Grand Canal Shoppes includes a 1,200-foot "Grand Canal," complete with a fleet of functional gondolas and singing gondoliers. Shoppers can enjoy a cappuccino at one of the waterside cafes while being entertained by Venetian performing artists, bringing to life legendary Italian characters. Shoppers will be enchanted by the tales of world-explorer Marco Polo, succumb to the charms of beguiling Marianne and fall in love with irresistible Casanova. The vibrant sense of an open-air experience culminates at St. Mark's Square, the centerpiece of the mall, set beneath a cathedral-style ceiling painted the beautiful colors of the Venetian sky.

"The Grand Canal Shoppes bring every detail of Venice to life," said Robert Goldstein, president of The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino. "Shoppers will be amazed by not just the overwhelming physical detail of The Grand Canal Shoppes, but also the ambience created by the entire Italian Renaissance experience."
