With the holiday season approaching, the Mairie de Monaco is once again inviting the Principality’s youngest residents to unleash their creativity in the second edition of the Mon plus beau dessin au Père Noël competition.

Open to children up to the age of eight who reside or attend school in Monaco, this festive initiative promises fun, artistry, and festive cheer.

Children can submit their masterpieces from Friday 15th November to Tuesday 17th December 2024 by placing them in Santa Claus’s very own mailbox, located at the Marché de la Condamine.

A jury will select four winners, one from each age group, to receive prizes in recognition of their artistic talents.

To honour all participants, the event will conclude with a festive gathering under the arcades of the Marché de la Condamine. Families can enjoy an afternoon of treats, featuring hot chocolate, a candy bar, and cotton candy, in an atmosphere brimming with holiday spirit.

The winners will be announced during the celebration on Thursday 19th December at 5pm.
