With so many things to see and do packed into its two square kilometres, Monaco is a year round destination!  Here are five great reasons to visit Monaco this autumn.

1 - Enjoy the finest dining courtesy of Monaco’s culinary stars

Monaco is of course home to the iconic Salle des Etoiles, the “Room of Stars”, and its unparalleled shows featuring some of the world’s best-known artists. And there are also many other quite unique star-laden rooms with their own spectacular offerings. Scattered across the Principality, you’ll find an astonishing eleven Michelin stars shared between seven of the world’s top restaurants, for the ultimate lunch or dinner experience.
Monaco’s collection of quite exceptional fine-dining venues includes: The Louis XV-Alain Ducasse at the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo with three Michelin stars, Le Blue Bay Marcel Ravin which earned a second star in 2022 at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort, Les Ambassadeurs by Christophe Cussac, opened in 2023 and already boasting two stars, La Table d’Antonio Salvatore at Le Rampoldi, the one-starred Le Grill tucked away on the roof of the Hôtel de Paris, Pavyllon Monte-Carlo, a Yannick Alléno restaurant at the Hôtel Hermitage, and Yoshi with its outstanding Japanese fare at the Hôtel Métropole.

2 - Experience the ultimate in relaxation

Monaco has been synonymous with wellness for a very long time. Société des Bains de Mer was founded all the way back in 1863, and with the spa was born a Monegasque tradition of well-being.
Ever since, the Principality has continued to evolve and reinvent itself, while always remaining true to its core DNA, which sets great store by wellness. Today, Monaco is home to several spas dedicated to complete relaxation.
Each has its own unique identity: There is the Spa Cinq Mondes at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort with its respect for long-standing tradition and ceremony, the spa at the Fairmont Monte-Carlo and its nature-inspired oasis, the Spa Métropole by Givenchy at the Hôtel Métropole with its sensory-focused treatments, and Les Thermes Marins, a veritable temple of wellness and a haven of peace and tranquillity overlooking the sea.

3 - Celebrate culture...the culture of excellence

Monaco is home to a vibrant cultural scene with unforgettable events all year round. Its prestigious cultural institutions offer inspirational experiences in unique venues.
From Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo and its eclectic programme, to the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra for music-lovers, the Opéra with performances for neophytes and connoisseurs alike, the Théâtre Princesse Grace with a diverse range of plays, and the Grimaldi Forum providing the stage for world-class events, the Principality is the pinnacle of cultural life.

4 - Party the night away by the Mediterranean

The Principality is home to some of the most exclusive venues in the world, ensuring a unique nightlife experience with music, dancing, and much more.
The prestige events on the calendar include the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival, one of the highlights of the year for music fans. The Festival illuminates the magnifient Opéra Garnier, honouring both all-time legends and rising stars of the jazz scene.
And Monaco offers plenty in the way of music venues: Head to La Note Bleue down by the seaside in the Larvotto district for live performances, try the Salle Europe Lounge Bar at the Casino de Monte-Carlo for an evening of musical entertainment, and be among the first to visit New Moods, which opens on 30 November to complete the Monegasque musical landscape with old-school know-how.
Finally, as locals and regulars will know, the funfair returns to Port Hercule at this time of year, as the leaves turn brown and the nights begin to draw in. Dodgems, candy floss and ghost trains bring an irresistible joy to the Principality on autumn evenings, putting big smiles on the faces of every family.

5- Experience thrilling elite sport

The Principality has always been serious about its sport. For over a century, some of the world’s most prestigious competitions have taken place here, with the greatest champions in their sporting disciplines coming to Monaco to show the world their talents, in spectacular and unique settings.
This autumn, AS Monaco Basketball and AS Monaco Football Club are looking forward to some huge fixtures, including matches in the Euroleague and Champions League where they will face the cream of the European crop. There’s thrilling action guaranteed…
October will also see the Principality host the Sportel Awards held during Sportel Monaco,
a major event that brings together top movers and shakers from the sports industry. Always popular with the public, who are able to come and get a glimpse of the big-name sports stars in attendance, the Awards ceremony rewards the very best sporting sequences of the year.
