Grand Ball of Princes and Princesses set to enchant Monaco with ‘Sail into Royalty’

The Grand Ball of Princes and Princesses will return to the Sporting Monte-Carlo on 26th September under the High Patronage of Prince Albert II.

Themed ‘Sail into Royalty’, the 2025 edition promises unforgettable moments with special guest Riccardo Cocciante, top-tier performances, Michelin-starred cuisine, and an atmosphere evoking timeless princely grandeur. Part of the evening’s proceeds will benefit charitable causes, including paediatric research and support for children in care.

A night of glamour and generosity

The annual gala, organised by Noble Monte-Carlo, brings together figures from film, politics and business in an event inspired by royal traditions. For 2025, ‘Sail into Royalty’ guides the aesthetic journey; artistic arrangements will transform the venue into a fairy-tale palace at the Sporting Monte-Carlo. Guests will be entertained with performances of world-class calibre, enjoy a gourmet dinner crafted by Michelin-starred chefs, and be immersed in an ambiance reminiscent of historic courtly balls.

Adding to the prestige, Italian composer Riccardo Cocciante, famed for his work on Notre-Dame de Paris, will attend as a special guest, bringing musical and cultural star quality to the evening.

Beneath the jewels: a charitable mission

Part of the proceeds is earmarked for the Princess Grace Foundation of Monaco, supporting paediatric medical research in French hospitals and assisting children in care.

Previous editions have graced iconic locations such as Dubai’s Burj Al Arab in 2024, Venice in 2023, and have frequently returned to Monaco since 2020.
