The inspiring Women of Monaco Club will be hosting its first luncheon of the year in March, an event that will coincide with the initiative’s annual awards ceremony. A celebration of the achievements and influence of women in the Principality, the gathering at the Yacht Club de Monaco will honour a group of women whose work and efforts in fields such as philanthropy, business and art are changing perceptions and inspiring others to take hold of their futures and create a lasting impact in their communities.
The event on 11th March will also mark the second anniversary of the launch of the successful Women of Monaco Club, which brings together local women who share common values and ideologies. Founded by Sandrine Knoell, the woman behind event management agency Five Stars Events, membership, granted by sponsorship, is open to women with strong ties to Monaco, whether through residence, work, education, philanthropy or a passion for the arts.
“I believe it is essential that women in Monaco do not feel isolated, but are part of a community where they can learn, share, and grow together,” says Knoell. “Some women are new to Monaco and do not yet speak French well. By joining the Club, they can participate in social events and communicate mainly in English.”
The club regularly hosts luncheons and themed gatherings throughout the year, in addition to the annual Women of Monaco Lunch and Awards. The 2025 awards will champion women in the Principality who have made outstanding contributions in the fields of fashion, art, health, music, image, career, entrepreneurship and philanthropy.
Attendees at the dual occasion in March will be treated to a fashion show by designer Violante Nessi, known for her cool and elegant style. Jewellery designer and Monaco resident Sarah Ho will also grace the occasion, demonstrating her unique ‘Bespoke & Revamp’ service.
Additionally, internationally acclaimed artist and designer Agneta Livijn will bring her signature blend of art and functionality to the event, showcasing her exclusive kitchen creations.
Proceeds from the event, as always, will go towards projects backed by the Princess Grace Foundation.
