The crowd turned out in force on Tuesday 18th June to witness the passing of the Olympic torch through Monaco. Charles Leclerc, Alexandra Coletti, Xiaoxin Yang, Rudy Rinaldi, and Prince Albert Il and Princess Charlene proudly carried the flame.

The excitement of the day concluded in the flame's arrival at the Prince's Palace.

The last time the Olympic flame passed through Monaco was in 1968.

What a superb evening, delicious food, open bar and fabulous cake(s)! It was a truly elegant evening, and we were delighted to see our esteemed members dancing the night away. The terrace at the Meridien Beach Plaza Hotel was a perfect location where over 70 members and guests including dignitaries gathered and were entertained.
