May 25 (UPI) -- Veneto Gov. Luca Zaia said plans are still in place to hold the 2020 edition of the famed Venice Film Festival in September.
The confirmation came after other prestigious live events and festivals around the world -- including South by the Southwest, Tribeca, Cannes and Burning Man -- were either canceled or moved online due to the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 345,000 people globally.
