OUR SIGNATURE EVENT
Hôtel de Paris · Salle Empire
For over 20 editions, Monaco's most anticipated Christmas gala has brought together the Principality's finest for an evening of celebration, elegance, and generosity.
THE EVENT
The legendary ballroom of the Hôtel de Paris is transformed into a Christmas wonderland. Crystal chandeliers, thousands of candles, and bespoke floral arrangements create an atmosphere of pure enchantment — a setting worthy of Monte-Carlo's most prestigious night.
A five-course gala dinner prepared by the Hôtel de Paris kitchens, paired with curated wines and champagne. Each course is a celebration of seasonal French and Mediterranean cuisine — crafted for Monaco's most discerning palates.
From live orchestras and international artists to surprise celebrity performances and show acts — every edition brings a lineup that keeps guests talking until the next one. Past editions have featured world-class musicians, dancers, and theatrical productions.
Over 300 of Monaco's most distinguished residents, international personalities, and philanthropic leaders gather each December. The Bal de Noël is where Monaco's social season reaches its peak.
