The Convention Center of the Third Millennium
The Grimaldi Forum Monaco (family name of Monaco’s ruling Prince Albert II) opened for meetings, in September 2000. The daylight-filled building on the sea has a stunning glass entrance and 2 convention restaurants, each seating 500. It is an engineering miracle, built on land reclaimed from the sea, 500 cubic meters of water are pumped out per hour, generating energy to heat and cool the bulding, but not damaging sea life in any way.
Its 1,800-seat auditorium with a 10,925 sq. ft. stage and a balcony for 500 is used for ballet and opera performances, as well as meetings, and has become a new center of culture for the Principality. Two other auditoriums seat 800 and 400. There are 23 breakout rooms for 10 to 400 and 2 large exhibition halls with various stage possibilities. The larger one (45,200 sq. ft.) includes a pillar-free area of 26,911 sq.ft., with a 23-ft. ceiling and space for up to 200 trade show booths; the other, designed for art exhibitions and galas, can hold 155 booths (and they can be joined). Advanced technology provides external networking access through relay satellite, Internet or interactive terminal.
With over 2,500 first-class and deluxe hotel rooms, central location and temperate climate, Monaco is an ideal destination all year round. Monaco’s easy accessibility from many international airports (14 miles from Nice International) makes global gatherings a cinch and its privacy and security give it preference over other potential sites.
Most of its hotel rooms are within walking distance and shuttles are rarely needed.
