Monaco Art Week 2026 – A Cultural Journey Through the Principality
Every year, Monaco transforms into a vibrant panorama of creativity and cultural exchange during Monaco Art Week, one of the Principality’s most dynamic artistic events. In 2026, this celebration of art, heritage, and contemporary expression will take place from 27 April to 1 May 2026 — offering residents and visitors alike a unique way to explore Monaco’s art scene.
What Is Monaco Art Week?
Monaco Art Week is a city-wide art event that brings together galleries, auction houses, cultural institutions, and art enthusiasts for a curated programme of exhibitions, talks, and immersive artistic experiences. Throughout the week, participants collaborate to highlight the diversity and richness of artistic practices — from classical and modern works to contemporary creations.
Originally established in 2018 to unite Monaco’s art institutions and showcase the Principality as a cultural destination, Monaco Art Week has quickly become a highlight of Monaco’s cultural calendar.
