The Monte-Carlo Summer Festival is a music event that transforms Monaco into a global live-music destination every summer. According to the official promotion, the iconic Salle des Étoiles hosts stages where superstar artists from around the world gather. Amid the glamorous atmosphere unique to a sparkling Mediterranean resort, a series of one-night-only summer experiences unfolds. In 2026, it will be held from July 3 to August 15.

This is a classical music event held on summer nights in the Cour d’Honneur of the Prince’s Palace of Monaco. Officially positioned as an event that carries on the Grimaldi family’s tradition of supporting the arts and music, it features the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra performing with guest conductors and soloists in the palace courtyard, which is usually closed to the public. In 2026, a six-evening program is scheduled from July 9 to August 6.

SUNSET Monaco is an open-air festival held on the private beach of the Le Méridien Beach Plaza, facing the Mediterranean, to coincide with the Monaco Grand Prix weekend. Officially billed as “the most anticipated musical celebration of race weekend,” it brings together international DJs like BLOND:ISH and HONEY DIJON for three days and nights. The dining experience Casa SUNSET, curated by chef Mauro Colagreco, is also hosted alongside the event. In 2026, it will take place from June 5 to 7.
