Practical notes

Official dates pending

Where it happens

  • Main venue information should be checked on the official Monte-Carlo SBM page. Recent editions have used the Opéra Garnier Monte-Carlo / Salle Garnier setting.
  • From Menton, Monaco-Monte-Carlo station is usually about 15 minutes by train. By car, allow about 25 minutes in normal traffic, plus parking and event access time.

With children

Mostly adults. Teenagers who genuinely enjoy live music may like selected concerts, but late timings, formal venues and ticket prices make it less suitable for small children.

Official links, tickets and prices

Check the official Monte-Carlo SBM page for the final programme, venue, ticket categories and prices. Line-up and access rules can change by edition.

Practical tips

  • Choose concert nights before requesting accommodation dates if a specific artist matters to you.
  • For late returns to Menton, check evening train times or arrange a transfer before going to Monaco.
  • Late November and early December evenings can feel cool by the sea; bring a jacket for the return.
