Advance tickets for St Mark’s Basilica - Venice

Does anyone know how far in advance the skip-the-line entry tickets for St. Mark’s go on sale? I was able to get a ticket for the campanile. The form showed times for entry tickets, but I couldn’t click on them.
Thanks!

For reference, I bought tickets for the Campanile on 8/17/23 for our visit on 10/16/23 and tickets to St. Mark's on 8/24/23 for our visit on 10/17/23. If I remember correctly, "reservations" go on sale up to 60 days in advance. I just looked and tickets are on sale through 4/26. I hope this helps. The Campanile was truly awesome, especially since we there at dusk, just as the lights in and around Venice were coming on.

It appears from your other posts you are going during Holy Week, the last week in March. Is that correct?

Did you use the official site for skip-the-line tickets? This one:

I suggest you get the Basilica + Museum ticket so you can take your grandson upstairs to see the famous horses. My grandsons (age 11) absolutely loved seeing them—-both the original bronze hours and the replicas outside on the balcony (which is a must-do in my mind).

I found tickets available for March 27 and March 30, but none for March 28, 29, or 31.
