Staged across the Salle des Etoiles and the Opera Garnier within the Monte-Carlo Sporting complex, the 2026 edition runs from July 3 to August 15 and assembles a lineup spanning pop, soul and R&B, with names such as Jon Batiste, Aya Nakamura, John Legend and Laura Pausini performing across the run

03

The city starts moving

That combination of marquee names and a compact Mediterranean venue gives the festival a different character from arena tours or sprawling festival fields elsewhere in Europe, drawing an international audience already gathered on the Riviera for summer
