First things first, Hooray! – the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix is here to stay – at least according to the latest contract that has just been negotiated. It is guaranteed to be a mainstay event each year through to and including the 2025 season … and the contract can be renewed by negotiation after that. 

The second exciting piece of news is that another Casino capital is going to feature in the 2023 season. Las Vegas will be the second to last race of the 2023 season in November.

Buses in Monaco will be free for everyone this autumn from now until 27 November. The Princely Government’s goal for this free service is for local people to start using public transportation, to boost passenger numbers well into the future and to relieve traffic congestion.

Take it or leave it, public transportation is good for our cities and good for the environment. And since sitting in traffic isn’t the most calming way to spend rush hours, why not start taking advantage of a free service which could lead to better transportation habits in the future?

The Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel, owned by the SBM group, has a geniune resort atmosphere. Guests may spend a whole day here sipping a cocktail by the azure pool, enjoying a spa or treating themselves to a gourmet meal in one of the hotel’s restaurants.

This is a huge complex bordering France. Its secluded location lets you enjoy private access to the open sea. At the same time, Monaco’s iconic restaurants and clubs – Sporting, Jimmy’s, Coya – are just a stone’s throw away.
