Dear Readers!

The long-awaited changes are finally taking effect. We can now breathe freely in the streets without wearing a mask. Restaurants and sports clubs are open. Theatres and cinema resumed their work: life is taking its usual course. Monaco is traditionally among the first countries to be lifting restrictions. Moreover, the Principality exacted a powerful revenge for missing out on last year. Three — yes three! — motor races were held in Monaco within one month: the Historic Grand Prix, Formula E and Formula-1. Bravo!

Following these remarkable sports events, the Comedy Film Festival and the 60th Monte-Carlo Television Festival have also rolled out their red carpet in the Principality.

Balls and Gala dinners are all happening! We have missed them so much! What other exciting things are in store for us? The Hello Monaco summer edition is here to fill you in on everything that’s happening and awaiting us in the Principality. We will also take a journey into the past, dwelling on the Grimaldi dynasty, the Doria clan and Alexandre Dumas’ experience in Monaco.

We will introduce you to the best Italian restaurants in Monaco and art exhibitions not to be missed. We will trace the evolution of the bathing suit since the opening of the very first beach in the Principality.
