From the streets of La Condamine and the Boulevard des Moulins to the Rock and the Larvotto seafront, Monaco’s main shopping districts will host an array of family-friendly events throughout the Christmas period.

Over the coming weeks, the Union des Commerçants et Artisans de Monaco (UCAM), with financial support from the Monaco Government, will put on a host of different events in La Condamine, Monaco-Ville and Larvotto, as well as on the Boulevard des Moulins.

A centerpiece of the programme is the installation of an enchanting carousel at the Larvotto seaside complex, which will operate daily from 10.30am to 7pm.

Beginning 11th December, children will be able to send their wishlists to Santa Claus by depositing their letters in a magical mailbox located near the Christmas chalet in Larvotto.

Between 14th December and 4th January, Father Christmas and his elves will make regular appearances in these shopping hubs with the aim of encouraging residents to shop locally this Christmas and support the many artisan and independent shops of the Principality. There will also be magic shows and urban circus performances across the city.
