The Grimaldi Forum of Monaco celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the 25th Anniversary Celebration of the Grimaldi Forum and inaugurated the additional space, which will offer more square meters and improved facilities for events. The evening began in the prestigious Salle des Princes, where guests were treated to a performance by Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo – Académie Princesse Grace.
Prince Albert II said:
“Thank you for these images, which inspire joy and emotion, representing Monaco’s values: a tradition of hospitality, creativity, and excellence, along with a commitment to environmental responsibility, to which I am, as you know, deeply attached. The Grimaldi Forum staff have made this venture a great success. I offer you my warmest congratulations on that. I’d like to add my encouragement.
We are gathered here this evening to write a new chapter in the story of the Grimaldi Forum, which is expanding, and the real challenge is to optimise its use. Blending seamlessly into the Mareterra eco-district in Monaco, the Grimaldi Forum’s modular capacity is now increased by 50%, with some 6,000 m² of additional indoor space and 2,000 m² of outdoor space. The new space, some of which will be bathed in natural light, should make it possible to host larger-scale events, to support customers in their own expansion, and to host more events simultaneously.
Through this extension, which I will have the pleasure of inaugurating with the Princess in a few moments, but also the Mareterra district as a whole and the recently renovated Larvotto beach area, the whole environment of the Grimaldi Forum has been given a new look. It is a new asset in promoting the attractiveness of the Principality of Monaco, and we can but welcome that. I wish the Grimaldi Forum long life, continued success and, above all, a very happy birthday. »
Before sharing a glass of champagne, the guests were able to attend a blessing of the new premises, celebrated by Father Jean-Ariel Bauza-Salinas, along with the Prince and Princess.
