Weekend is already here. And HelloMonaco is as always ready to support you in your entertainment, so here is our plan for you.
On March 23rd in Larvotto from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. the Princess Charlene Foundation organizes the first Road Safety Day, which combines sport and road safety in Monaco.
Raising awareness among participants during a popular day is the idea behind this Road Safety Day. This project, led by the Princess Charlene Foundation, promises to be a friendly event for the entire family dedicated to road safety on bicycles and introducing young people to the sport.
A bunch of free and fun activities will be offered on the beach esplanade in Larvotto. The program includes a circuit to improve your cycling skills, a pump track, and activities in a village set up for the occasion.
Road Safety Day is part of the Princess Charlene Foundation’s educational approach, combining road safety and physical activity. On Sunday, participants are advised to bring their bikes and helmets to enjoy the activities.
A Monabike challenge is also planned to promote soft mobility as a team… and requires prior registration.
Le Printemps des Arts (Spring Arts Festival) continues with a concert “Stravinsky – Bartók – Schönberg” on Saturday 22 March 2025, at 7.30 pm in Auditorium Rainier III.
The BBC Symphony Orchestra, whose musical director between 1971 and 1975 was none other than Pierre Boulez, is invited for two special concerts devoted to modern masterpieces of the early 20th century. Two avant-garde ballets, two symphonies, and two piano concertos will make up the programme of this remarkable diptych, with a soloist well known to audiences at the Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo, François-Frédéric Guy.
And on Sunday there is one more concert, called “Debussy – Schönberg – Stravinsky” on 23 March 2025, at 5 pm in Auditorium Rainier III.
Opera: “L’Heure espagnole & L’Enfant et les Sortilèges” (The Spanish Hour & The Child and the Spells) is presented by the Opéra de Monte-Carlo this Sunday 23 March 2025, at 3 pm in Opéra Garnier Monte-Carlo.
And for sports fans there is a Betclic Élite French Basketball Championship match: AS Monaco Roca Team – Lyon-Villeurbanne on Sunday 23 March 2025 at 7 pm in Salle Gaston Médecin.

There are several interesting exhibitions going on in Monaco these days. For example, discover the new monographic exhibition by Portuguese artist Francisco Tropa, specially conceived for the Villa Paloma and featuring a previously unseen selection of sculptures, drawings, films and light projections.
The exhibition takes its names from pietre paesine (imaged stones), whose geological designs are evocative of painted landscapes, on the boundary of figuration and abstraction. This idea of an analogy between nature and technique is at the heart of Francisco Tropa’s work, which focuses on the conditions of appearance and perception of an image.
The Monaco Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology is delighted to invite you to discover its new temporary exhibition: The Butterfly Effect: The Pre-History of Animals, organised under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco. Explore whole rooms themed to the animal kingdom and biodiversity, and take a fascinating journey through archaeology and our natural history! It is open until Monday 1 December 2025, from 9 am to 6 pm in Musée d’Anthropologie Préhistorique.
Exhibition: “Agora, the Place of the Museum” is now open at Nouveau Musée National de Monaco – Villa Sauber.
Back in 2015, the NMNM debited its first ever LAB giving visitors a glimpse “behind the scenes of the museum”. Then in 2018, five guest artists were invited to produce their own musings on the very meaning of the museum itself. In 2025, as the Villa Sauber prepares to undergo a radical transformation, the NMNM is giving pride of place to its public-facing programmes, where the focus is on artists and promoting a wider sharing of art appreciation.
Of course there are other interesting events taking place in Monaco. If you want to learn more about them visit our Calendar.
So have fun and enjoy your weekend!
