Among the most interesting sea-going events are the rowing races held in livorno, particularly the traditional "Palio marinaro", "Barontini cup" and the "Coppa risi'atori".
Yachts from all over the world take part in the naval academy sailing trophy, held every year in spring.
"Effetto venezia" enlivens livorno's historic venice quarter every summer with cultural, gastronomic and folkloristic events.
