2026 Edition of Monte-Carlo Spring Arts Festival
The Monte-Carlo Spring Arts Festival is a music festival that takes place over 4 weekends from March to April in various venues throughout the Principality and surrounding areas. Founded in 1970 at the instigation of Princess Grace of Monaco, the Spring Arts Festival has been presided over since 1984 by H.R.H. Princess Caroline of Hanover and its artistic direction has been ensured, since May 2021, by composer and conductor Bruno Mantovani.
