Bezos and Sanchez Relocate Venice Reception to Arsenale After Protests

  • Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are holding a multi-day wedding celebration in Venice this weekend, with the reception moved to the Arsenale due to protests.

  • The wedding will host about 200-250 guests transported by at least 30 booked water taxis to the isolated venue, which also hosts Venice Biennale exhibitions.

  • The event reportedly costs £40-48 million and may boost local businesses, but protesters argue it exploits Venice and demand fairer tax rules for billionaires.
