Inspired by Venice’s timeless ombra tradition — the “little shadow” where friends meet after work for a glass of wine — Ombreta is Vancouver’s most anticipated Italian networking event.
Each month, members, entrepreneurs, executives, and diplomats come together in an elegant yet informal setting to connect, share ideas, and celebrate the spirit of Italian hospitality.
Ombreta is where meaningful relationships grow over great conversation, a complimentary drink, and Italian-style stuzzichini — now with the magic of Venetian Carnival. It’s an opportunity to meet the people shaping Vancouver’s Italian business and cultural community and to experience la dolce vita, one glass at a time.
