About us

25 Years of Creativity within a Unique Setting Easily recognized by its spectacular glass and steel architecture, Monaco’s congress and cultural centre offers 41,000 sqm of modular space for conferences, conventions, trade shows, exhibitions, concerts and performances. Hosting around 100 events and 300,000 visitors annually, this iconic venue, inaugurated in 2000, continues to attract and retain internationally renowned events. Ideally located just minutes away from the Principality’s top hotels, it is praised for the quality of its spaces and the expertise of its teams, having already received over twenty awards and distinctions. Its professional clients are primarily based in Europe and the United States, mainly from the IT, medical and luxury sectors. 45% of them are recurring customers. They particularly value Monaco’s resort-like setting, where everything is within walking distance, and where they benefit from a comprehensive and coordinated offer from local stakeholders (Convention Bureau, hotels, restaurants, and the convention centre). This synergy enables a wide range of high-quality services, especially in catering and entertainment. In line with the Principality of Monaco’s long-standing commitment to sustainable development—aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050—the Grimaldi Forum has successfully implemented a management system focused on improving the social, economic and environmental impact of its activities. A green pioneer with ISO 14001 certification since 2008, the Grimaldi Forum is also committed to CSR and holds ISO 20121 certification.

Additional Information

Additional details

Since January 2025, it has benefited from Monaco’s ambitious offshore extension, which has expanded its exhibition space by 50%, adding 6,000 sqm of new areas. Connected to the main building via a link to the existing Diaghilev Hall, the extension also offers independent access from the seafront. To make the most of this exceptional location in the heart of the Principality, an additional 2,000 sqm of outdoor space is now available, including the Ravel terrace with its 600 sqm sea view. This new layout enables the hosting of larger-scale events, the combination of multiple events simultaneously, and provides even greater flexibility to accommodate increasingly original event formats.
