#hello_monaco weekend: what to do on August 8th and August 9th

Beautiful summer weather draws everyone to the beach. But if you are tired of the sea here are a few  interesting things in Monaco you can do. HelloMonaco put together a few suggestions for your weekend.

"Variations, les Décors lumineux d’Eugène Frey" ("Variations, Eugène Frey's Light Set Projections"), an exhibition by João Maria Gusmão

For those who were planning to visit the exhibition devoted to Eugène Frey in the New National Museum of Monaco at Paloma, fortunately it is reopening again. It was suddenly closed in mid-March after only few days of showing – just as the quarantine closed everything. 

Frey was the inventor of unique lighting systems and opera decorations in the early twentieth century. Included in the exhibition is a contemporary vision created by the Portuguese artist João Maria Gusmão.

Oceanographic Museum

Till August 31, the Monaco Oceanographic Museum organizes many events set in compliance with all necessary sanitary measures. The flagship event will be the interactive exhibition Immersion (ImmerSEAve).

Starting mid July, the Oceanographic Museum will give you a unique opportunity to get to know the Great Barrier Reef, which is one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Chagall National Museum

The master classes that take you to an authentic journey experiencing Chagall’s work through games, pantomime and theatre performance are held in the Chagall National Museum in Nice on 9th of August. Specially for the children, museum guides are holding entertaining visits revealing permanent collections and a temporary exhibition “In the Land of the Gods, Marc Chagall and the Greek World.”

And don’t forget about shopping! We are hesitantly venturing into the shops. Sanitizers, masks and social distancing are the new shopping reality. But nothing lasts forever. HelloMonaco is happy to take you on a shopping tour for a new trendy wardrobe.

A futuristic building is located in the very heart of Liguria, overlooking the French Riviera. The Mall Sanremo is a new project by The Mall Luxury Outlets opened in June 2019.

Imbibed in the local sea landscape, the minimalistic boutiques share a sharp-angled mirrored roof and a central staircase zigzagging through the most famous international high fashion brands. Now that the lockdown is lifted, the best fashion designers are available again with their exclusive collections at an interesting price. The Mall Sanremo is the luxury shopping destination that allows its visitors to live an experience that goes beyond the classic shopping: a unique blend of fashion, environment and hospitality. This is the key of success for this renowned Italian reality: Elegance and Exclusivity in a place where visitors literally fall in love. A special and unique location that gives you the chance to experience the world of fashion, luxury and beauty while counting on special benefits without compromising on quality.
