LEGO announces Venetian Neighbourhood, a new Icons set celebrating Venice

Hello again, dear LEGO friends!
The LEGO Group has announced the new LEGO Icons Venetian Neighbourhood (11388), a 5,682-piece set inspired by the architecture and culture of Venice, Italy. Designed for adults aged 18 and over, the model recreates a canal-side neighbourhood featuring a luxury villa, an artisan glassblowing workshop, an astronomical clock tower, an arched bridge and a gondola.
The set includes 17 minifigures, representing gondoliers, musicians, tourists and carnival-goers wearing elaborate costumes and masks. Builders can also explore the detailed interiors by removing the roofs and floors, while the model can be separated into two sections for different display options. Interactive features include a street piano that plays real notes when its flower vase is turned and a clock tower with a movable astronomical calendar.
The finished model measures over 48 cm high, 64 cm wide and 33 cm deep.
LEGO Insiders will have Early Access from November 1, 2026, before the set becomes available to everyone on November 4. The recommended retail price is €499.99, £449.99 or $549.99.
Customers purchasing the set between November 1 and November 8 will also receive the LEGO Icons Venetian Water Taxi (40898), a 322-piece set featuring a water taxi, a dock, two minifigures and two pigeon figures. The gift is available while stocks last.
Happy building everyone!
