An exceptional location on the borders of France and Italy, Nice international airport just 7 minutes away by helicopter and 30 minutes by car, excellent security, sunshine all year round and a glamorous image make Monaco a very special place for events.
Sporting and cultural meetings, trade fairs and festivals – every year, the Principality hosts more than 400 events in its numerous indoor and outdoor venues, such as the Grimaldi Forum, the Football Stadium and Port Hercule … Palaces, hotels, Michelin-starred and other excellent restaurants, exceptional places for entertainment – all those involved in hospitality in Monaco draw on their skills to welcome visitors in optimum conditions.
Among the international-level events that take place in the Principality are the prestigious annual Monte-Carlo F1 Grand Prix, and the Electric Grand Prix, which is held every two years.
