The Port of Monaco is preparing to transform into a vibrant seaside funfair as the traditional Foire Attractions returns for its 2026 edition. 

Running from Friday, 16th October to Thursday, 19th November, the month-long event offers a familiar annual appointment for families, residents, and visitors seeking seasonal entertainment against the backdrop of the principality’s marina.

Opening its gates at 2pm on Friday 16th October, the fair brings together a classic collection of white-knuckle rides, traditional carnival games, and confectionery stalls. From children’s carousels to high-adrenalin attractions, the layout suits all age groups, mixed with traditional culinary stalls offering seasonal sweet treats like candied apples, churros, and crêpes.

Schedule and opening times

Operating hours vary slightly depending on the day of the week and the specific type of attraction. Children’s rides and food stalls open from 11am daily, while all general attractions and stalls operate from 2pm to 11pm on standard days. For those looking to enjoy the atmosphere into the evening, operating hours stretch until midnight on Fridays, Saturdays, and the evenings preceding public holidays. 

Additionally, a special late-night opening will see the fair stay open until 1am on Wednesday, 18th November, ahead of Monaco’s National Day celebrations.
