Following the temporary closure of Espace Lamartine due to water damage, the Monaco Town Hall has announced a new plan to keep its community connected by relocating social gatherings to the Espace Léo Ferré.

During the Public Session of the Communal Council held on 25th March, Councillor Nathalie Vaccarezza, Delegate for Espace Lamartine, confirmed that members of the popular community centre will soon be able to meet once again for social and cultural activities—this time at the Espace Léo Ferré.

The initiative aims to preserve the spirit of Espace Lamartine, which has long served as a space for leisure, learning and connection for Monaco’s residents, students and nationals aged 16 and over. The original site has been closed since November due to water damage, but the commitment to its members has not wavered.

Teams from the Department of Seniors and Social Action have been working to provide alternative outdoor activities and workshops across various municipal sites since the closure. Now, with support from the Commune, a more permanent temporary arrangement is in development.

From mid-April, a specially designed programme of activities will be rolled out at the Espace Léo Ferré, taking into account the venue’s events calendar. The full schedule will soon be available on the Mairie de Monaco’s website, allowing members to plan their visits and continue enjoying their regular social connections.
