Riding on the success of its first edition in 2021, Festival des Etoilés Monte-Carlo is making its big comeback this autumn, between 2 September and 26 November 2022. This second edition will be marked by new 4-handed menus, for which the Michelin-starred chefs of Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer will host internationally renowned chefs. It will kick off on September 2, with Chef Alain Ducasse welcoming Clare Smyth, a British 3-star chef, to the Louis XV-Alain Ducasse restaurant in the Hôtel de Paris. Three more dates will follow in October at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort, the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo and the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo. Not a minute’s respite for food lovers.

Chefs Marcel Ravin, Yannick Alléno and Dominique Lory will cook alongside chefs Shaun Hergatt, Bruno Verjus and Davide Oldani respectively, to bring together two talented people, two visions of cuisine, and to (re)discover the unique atmosphere of the Group’s Michelin-starred restaurants. The Festival des Etoilés Monte-Carlo will end with a 7-star gala dinner on November 26, to be held at the Salle des Arts of the One Monte-Carlo, in the presence of all of the company’s Michelin-starred chefs. With the Festival des Etoilés, Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer continues in the role of forerunner of gastronomy it has had for more than a century and presents itself as the European reference destination for gastronomy.

With 30 restaurants and bars and more than 150 years’ experience in lifestyle and gastronomy, Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer, the resort that has received the most stars in Europe with 7 Michelin stars, continues to make progress with this second edition of the Festival des Etoilés Monte-Carlo.

Again this year, the resort’s chefs are inviting internationally renowned 2- and 3-starred chefs to share in a moment of pure gastronomy based on a creative menu. It is with great pleasure that the British chef Clare Smyth, the Australian chef Shaun Hergatt, the French chef Bruno Verjus and the Italian chef Davide Oldani will share, for an evening (or longer for some) of enjoyable collaboration, the kitchens of Alain Ducasse, Marcel Ravin, Yannick Alléno and Dominique Lory.

Like the first edition, this festival will end with a grand gala evening on November 26, in the Salle des Arts of the One Monte-Carlo. The Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer chefs will once again work together in a spirit of festivity and fraternity to produce an 8-hand and 7-star dinner for the occasion. This will be an exceptional moment, with guests going on a journey through the Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer’s Michelin-starred galaxy for an evening.
