The Summit 2026: Monaco at the Heart of Global Luxury Travel

From 24 to 27 February 2026, the Principato di Monaco takes center stage as a global hub for high-end tourism by hosting The Summit 2026, the exclusive invitation-only event organized by Forbes Travel Guide. The summit brings together the most influential figures in luxury travel and hospitality for a unique platform of dialogue, inspiration, and elite networking.

The event takes place at the prestigious Forum Grimaldi, which for three days welcomes iconic hoteliers, international buyers, global brand leaders, specialized media, and distinguished guests from around the world, alongside local dignitaries.

Recognized as one of the most glamorous and authoritative conferences dedicated to luxury travel, The Summit offers a carefully curated program combining strategic insight with high-level relationship building. The agenda features trend-focused discovery sessions, inspiring keynote talks within the Symposium, targeted networking opportunities, and exclusive culinary and cultural experiences.

Over the years, the Summit has hosted leading international figures, including Oscar, Tony, and Emmy Award winners, bestselling authors, James Beard Award nominees, renowned entrepreneurs, and thought leaders. This diverse lineup highlights the event’s cross-disciplinary nature, bridging industry expertise, creativity, and long-term vision.

A symbolic highlight of the Summit is the annual celebration of the Five-Star, Four-Star, and Recommended ratings awarded by Forbes Travel Guide to the world’s most outstanding hospitality establishments. These distinctions not only honor excellence but also reinforce the global reputation of the properties recognized.

With The Summit 2026, Monaco further strengthens its position as an international luxury hub, becoming for three days the meeting point for the leading voices in high-end travel.
