Luxury in Monaco takes a great stride forward, revving up with Top Marques 2025. This move comes on the heels of Informa’s recent acquisition of Ascential plc, which includes major brands like Cannes Lions and Money20/20, further boosting its Informa Festivals division.
Top Marques Monaco, renowned as one of the premier luxury automotive shows in the world, features a showcase of cutting-edge supercars, hypercars, and classic automobiles, along with high-end lifestyle products. Since its launch in 2004, the event has served as a platform for over 100 supercar debuts. Its 20th edition is scheduled to take place from May 7 to 11, 2025.
Informa’s history with Monaco is rooted in its work with the Monaco Yacht Show, an event it has helped transform into a leading global showcase for superyachts over the past decade. Building on this success, the partnership now spans over 15 luxury brands across yachting, art, and lifestyle sectors in Europe and the U.S. Recently, the luxury media brand BOAT International was also integrated into Informa’s growing Monaco portfolio.
With the addition of Top Marques, Informa aims to leverage its global reach to further elevate the event’s profile. Its expertise in luxury, lifestyle, and related sectors such as aviation, technology, and jewelry will help position Top Marques as a global leader in luxury events and innovation.
Salim Zeghdar, from Monaco Check-In, which organizes Top Marques, expressed confidence in the partnership: “Informa’s global network and experience in scaling niche brands make them the perfect partner to take Top Marques Monaco to new heights.”
Stephen Carter, CEO of Informa, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the growing luxury market and the strategic significance of their partnership with Monaco: “Through our collaboration with Monaco, we have built a unique portfolio of luxury brands. The addition of Top Marques presents exciting opportunities for further growth both in Monaco and internationally.”
