As night fell over the Place du Palais on Saturday, the Prince’s Palace was transformed into a breathtaking canvas for a spectacular sound and light show…
The event was one of the most anticipated highlights of the 6th Rencontre des Sites Historiques Grimaldi as we reported on here.
Projected directly onto the façade of the Palace, the immersive show combined historical storytelling, dazzling visuals, and a powerful musical score to retrace the centuries-old ties between Monaco and the French and Italian municipalities invited to the weekend’s celebrations. From the province of Parma to the Var and Haute-Loire, ancestral connections between the Grimaldi family and these regions were brought to life in vivid, animated sequences.
Hundreds gathered on the square to witness the fairy-tale display, which blended cutting-edge technology with heritage and emotion. This unique spectacle marked a fitting close to a weekend filled with exhibitions, tastings, and cultural exchange—celebrating the historical network of towns united by their shared connection to Monaco’s royal family.
Philosophy met fantasy in this moving tableau, reaffirming the Principality’s commitment to preserving and celebrating its deep-rooted past. For both residents and visiting dignitaries, the evening left a lasting impression of history reimagined in luminous splendour.
