This weekend all eyes will be drawn to the clay courts of the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters. However there are some other things you could do this weekend.
The 2025 ATP Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo, the Principality will once again host one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious clay court tournaments, the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters, in the stunning setting of Monte-Carlo Country Club from Saturday 4 to Sunday 12 April 2026.
It’s an Easter weekend so on Saturday the Exotic Garden of Monaco is offering a plant hunt on Saturday, April 4, 2026, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., for children aged 5 to 12 who attend school or live in Monaco.
Little explorers, set off in search of hidden plants and win a chocolate surprise at the finish line! This free activity is open to each child accompanied by an adult, subject to availability.
And on Sunday the Monaco City Hall invites you to Princess Antoinette Park from 2:00 pm to 5:30 pm, to celebrate Easter with your family.
On the program: face painting, mascots, creative workshops, a photo booth, and a country-style play area for children. A festive and friendly afternoon to share with your family in the park.
Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo continues with several concerts. On Saturday it’s Turangalîla-Symphony performed by the The Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra at 7:30 pm in Salle des Princes – Grimaldi Forum Monaco.
The Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra tackles a gigantic work from the symphonic repertoire: the Turangalîla-Symphony, a vast hymn to joy and love composed by Olivier Messiaen for more than a hundred musicians, somewhere between a ballet for orchestra and a piano concerto, including the supernatural sounds of the ondes Martenot! As a prelude, La Mécanique céleste by (and featuring) composer-saxophonist Vincent David will launch the orchestra into weightlessness.
The concert will be preceded by a lecture at 6 p.m.: ‘The Orchestral Language of Olivier Messiaen’ by musicologist Yves Balmer.
And on Sunday there is a Candlelight Concert with Moraguès Quintet, organized at 5 pm in Opéra de Monte-Carlo, Salle Garnier.
In this candlelight concert-reading, playwright Dorian Astor uncovers the hidden face of Hector Berlioz: drawing from the many texts written by the composer, he ushers us into the creative jubilation of the artist, as well as his struggles, his grandeur, and his ferocious humour. Weaving the music with the composer’s own words, Quintette Moraguès and pianist Claire Désert unfold a journey across Berlioz masterpieces, such as the Symphonie fantastique, Nuits d’été, La Damnation de Faust and L’Enfance du Christ.
All those who choose other sports to tennis will surely enjoy football or basketball match. Basket Betclic ELITE – D25: Monaco – Dijon will take place on Sunday 5 April 2026 at 4.30 pm on Stade Louis II.
Ligue 1 McDonald’s – D28 football match: AS Monaco – Olympique de Marseille will take place on Sunday 5 April 2026 at 8 pm on Louis II Stadium.
And don’t forget about the exhibitions. For example, from March 2 to June 15, 2026, Le Méridien Beach Plaza unveils Japan Highlights, an immersive exploration of Japan through the distinct yet complementary perspectives of Franck Solimeis and Carole Micallef.
Blending photography and digital artistry, the exhibition explores the compelling contrasts of a country where centuries-old traditions coexist with cutting-edge modernity. Quiet temples, contemplative landscapes, vibrant cities and contemporary aesthetics unfold in a richly immersive artistic experience.
