Aspire Executive Lounge
★4.8(44 reviews)VCE · Main Terminal · landside
Venice's landside lounge — settle in before security on DragonPass, Priority Pass or a pay-in pass.
The Aspire Executive Lounge opened at Venice Marco Polo in October 2025 and sits landside on level 2, above check-in desks 1–56 and before the security checkpoint, reachable by lift. Being outside security makes it unusual: it welcomes both departing travellers and non-travelling visitors on a pay-in basis, so it works for seeing someone off as well as for settling in early. Inside it's a bright, airy seating area with complimentary refreshments, and the lounge's own description highlights artisanal charcuterie, regional cheeses and freshly baked pastries alongside a bar pouring wine, beer and spirits. DragonPass and Priority Pass both get you in, and the lounge adds practical touches for working visits — computer access, a conference room, telephone facilities, charging points, flight monitors and Wi-Fi. Open daily from 08:00 to 20:00, it allows stays of up to three hours.

A capable spot to work before security, with computer access, a conference room, telephone facilities, charging points and Wi-Fi. Better suited to working visits than the airside lounge.
The Aspire Executive Lounge serves complimentary refreshments in a bright, airy setting, and its own description calls out artisanal charcuterie, regional cheeses and freshly baked pastries. The bar pours house wine, beer and spirits alongside hot and cold soft drinks — a lighter, deli-style spread that fits a pre-security visit.

Both DragonPass and Priority Pass work here, and you can also pay in at the door.
