Monte Carlo

Arriving off a long-haul flight, dressed in jeans, polo, a jumper and sneakers, I immediately feel somewhat out of place walking into the enormous anteroom of the fabled Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo.

Monaco is gearing up for a spectacular 2025, filled with unforgettable events. From world-class sporting competitions to captivating cultural performances and new restaurant openings, Monaco promises an exceptional calendar of activities. The Principality continues to reinvent itself while staying true to its DNA.

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is promoting an “exclusive experience” for the 2024 Formula One Grand Prix in Monaco later this month.

There are more than 500 events of all kinds in Monaco organised all year round. From local art events to exciting shows and festivals, Monaco can introduce you to a world of glamorous year-round amusements.

Thought Monaco was all about racing events and luxury hotels? Think again. With a remarkable historical heritage dating back to 1297 and the beginning of the Grimaldi Family dynasty, Monaco is a destination rich in historical traditions which have endured throughout the centuries.

With no shortage of thrilling restaurant, bar and lounge openings in the Principality over the last two years, 2023 is proving no exception! Monaco’s restaurant and bar scene is thriving more than ever.

A stay in the Principality is the promise of unforgettable moments. Whether you’d like to stay in a luxury suite with views over the F1 track or prefer the charms of a luxury “Belle Époque” establishment, the options are endless.

Monaco is not just a destination; it is the experience of a lifetime. For more than a century, it has been an aspirational symbol of luxury and glamour. What the country lacks in size, it makes up for in history, culture, entertainment and character. The ideal destination to add into any European itinerary, Monaco is just 30minutes by car to Nice International Airport, 7 minutes by helicopter. An idyllic climate with 300 days of sunshine makes it even more alluring.

The Monaco Government Tourist & Convention Authority has set the scene for a bright future of tourism with the launch of a white paper, designed to lay the foundations for a strong, sustainable tourism strategy.

Monaco has long been known for its exclusive luxury offerings and the destination keeps reinventing itself to make sure travellers get the unique, unforgettable experience they deserve when visiting the Principality.

The Monaco Government Tourist and Convention Authority has launched a new website dedicated to travel trade professionals in the leisure and MICE markets.

Monaco is a dynamic Principality that constantly reinvents itself whilst staying loyal to the elements that make up its DNA. During this worldwide hiatus, Monaco has striven to continue developing its high-quality offerings so that when the visitors returned, not only would they reconnect with their favourite aspects of the Principality but they would find themselves enjoying new features in the Monaco travel world.
