The 2025 edition of the Pink Ribbon Monaco Gala, held under the High Patronage of Princess Charlene, will take place on Saturday 11th October in the iconic Salle Empire of the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, bringing together elegance, solidarity and a shared commitment to breast cancer awareness.
This year’s event will raise funds for research into lobular breast cancer screening, led by Dr Florent Hugonnet with the support of the Princess Grace Hospital Centre. Combining a gala dinner with a charity auction, the evening is set to be one of the highlights of Monaco’s October calendar.
Pink lights for the first time
For the first time since its creation, Pink Ribbon Monaco’s symbolic illuminations of the Principality will coincide with the gala itself. From the Salle Empire, guests will be able to enjoy views of Place du Casino and Monaco’s landmark buildings glowing in pink — a striking symbol of hope and solidarity.
The evening will feature a performance by singer and composer Yana, while Pink Ribbon Monaco’s ambassador Su Park will join guests in celebrating this moment of awareness and generosity.
Auction and raffle prizes
The charity auction will offer exceptional items, including a VIP experience at the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix, art and design works by Olivia Cognet and Carlo Bruton, a signed jersey from AS Monaco’s Paul Pogba, a Formula 1 race helmet signed by Valtteri Bottas, and an artistic view of Monaco signed by Princess Charlene herself.
A raffle, open until 31st October, allows a wider public to support the cause. Prizes include luxury stays at the Hôtel de Paris and Hôtel Metropole with fine dining experiences, treatments at the Guerlain Spa, an APM Monaco jewellery set, a Versace handbag, and an exclusive “Glass Skin” treatment by Glam Monte-Carlo, valued at €500.
A month of awareness
The gala is part of a broader campaign running throughout October, organised by Pink Ribbon Monaco in collaboration with Segraeti, the Métropole Shopping Centre and the Princess Grace Hospital. Activities and guest appearances will continue to keep breast cancer prevention in the spotlight.
Founded in 2011, Pink Ribbon Monaco has become the Principality’s leading association for breast cancer awareness, organising annual walks and illuminations. Since 2024, it has been under the Honorary Presidency of Princess Charlene, working alongside Monaco’s institutions to promote gender equality and health awareness.
