Monaco Shines with Wonder: Christmas Lights to Be Switched On November 27

The Principality of Monaco is preparing to transform into a true winter fairytale. On Monday, November 27, the city will officially launch its Christmas light displays, marking the beginning of the most enchanting season of the year.

As every winter, the streets of Monaco will glow with festive brilliance: from Fontvieille to Monte-Carlo, from La Condamine to the Jardin Exotique, each neighborhood will feature its own unique decorations designed to highlight the Principality’s distinctive identity and charm.
The project is led by the Department of the Environment of Monaco City Hall, once again combining artistic beauty with environmental awareness.

This year’s installations will be fully equipped with low-consumption LED technology and automated timing systems to minimize energy use. The initiative reaffirms Monaco’s commitment to the ecological transition, proving that elegance and sustainability can shine together.

The choice of November 27 is no coincidence: it anticipates the Advent season, giving residents and visitors more time to enjoy the festive atmosphere. Throughout the month, artisan markets, concerts, and family-friendly events will enliven the streets and squares, supporting both local commerce and community life.

With its refined illuminations and its unique holiday spirit, Monaco once again promises a Christmas that is luminous, welcoming, and environmentally responsible — an invitation to dream, to share, and to be enchanted under the starry Mediterranean sky.
