Why it matters

Useful for guests interested in Monaco's cultural and celebrity calendar.

The Monte-Carlo Television Festival is one of the world's long-running international TV events, founded in 1961. The 65th edition is announced for 12-16 June 2026 under the high patronage of Prince Albert II.

The programme mixes competition, premieres, masterclasses, fan meetings and award ceremonies. It is useful for guests interested in Monaco's media, celebrity and industry calendar.

How to plan your stay

Good for a Riviera city break with Menton as a calmer seaside base.

Practical notes

Confirmed date

Where it happens

  • Main venue: Grimaldi Forum Monaco, 10 Avenue Princesse Grace, 98000 Monaco.
  • Opening ceremony and screenings are usually held inside the Grimaldi Forum; some fan and media activity may be around Monaco Media and the Casino area.

With children

Mostly adults. Some public fan-zone moments may interest teenagers, but the main format is industry-focused and best for TV fans aged around 16+.

Official links, tickets and prices

Official website: tvfestival.com. Some public events and screenings may be free with advance registration; ticketing details usually open closer to the festival.

VIP events and gala evenings may be invitation-only or handled directly by the organising team.

Practical tips

  • If you want the industry atmosphere, focus on central Monaco around the Grimaldi Forum and Casino area.
  • From Menton, train travel to Monaco-Monte-Carlo is usually easier than driving during Monaco event days.
  • Register early for public ceremonies or screenings when booking opens; popular sessions can fill quickly.
