The Principality of Monaco is preparing to host one of the most anticipated events of the summer with the Summer Party 2026, organized by the Association des Amis du Musée océanographique de Monaco (AAMOM). The event combines elegance, entertainment, and a strong commitment to protecting the world’s oceans.
Taking place on Saturday, July 25, from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., the event will be held on the panoramic terrace of the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco, transformed for the occasion into an elegant open-air venue overlooking the Mediterranean. The Summer Party has become one of Monaco’s signature summer events, offering guests an unforgettable evening while supporting marine conservation initiatives.
Beyond its glamorous atmosphere, the Summer Party 2026 serves an important charitable purpose by raising funds for the AAMOM, which has supported the Oceanographic Museum since 2011 through projects focused on marine conservation, scientific research, and environmental education.
During the evening, guests will also discover Le Cercle, the Museum’s new corporate membership program designed to encourage businesses to actively support ocean protection initiatives. AAMOM President Leila Elling described the event as an opportunity to bring supporters together while introducing Hervé Chrétien, whose dedication played a key role in developing the new initiative.
Guests will enjoy an elegant cocktail dinner prepared by La Terrasse restaurant, accompanied by music from DJ Marc.
The evening will also feature premium tastings by Monte Carlo Champagne and Gelato & Cioccolato Monaco, while children can take part in dedicated activities organized by the Museum’s team together with partner Eeny Meeny. A floral workshop hosted by Bloom by the Sea will complete the entertainment program.
The highlight of the evening will take place at 10:30 p.m., when Monaco’s famous summer fireworks display lights up the Mediterranean sky, creating a spectacular finale for the event.
Funds raised during the Summer Party will support new initiatives within the Oceanographic Museum in the areas of Aquariology, Heritage Conservation, and Ocean for All, with particular attention given to educational programs for children living far from the sea.
The association’s impact has already been significant. In 2025, donations helped restore 22 unique underwater paintings, preserving remarkable artistic and scientific testimonies of marine biodiversity.
With an “été chic” dress code and convenient access via the Parking des Pêcheurs, the Monaco Summer Party 2026 promises to be one of the Principality’s most prestigious summer events, bringing together elegance, culture, and environmental responsibility in one extraordinary setting.
