Grimaldi Forum Monaco: a centre with many faces

From Sportel to the Television Festival, Luxe Pack Monaco and the cybersecurity conference Les Assises… by hosting around 80 business and cultural events a year, the Forum directly contributes to Monaco’s economic development and influence.

The Grimaldi Forum presents high-level exhibitions, bringing together works of art from all over the world, drawn from both private collections and the planet’s greatest museums. In 2021, the exhibition “Alberto Giacometti. A Retrospective. Marvellous Reality” was the latest in a string of major artist monographs which have previously been exhibited at the Grimaldi Forum, including those featuring Dali, Picasso, Bacon and Warhol. The exhibition is also one of the biggest retrospectives ever devoted to this significant artist of the twentieth century, presenting 230 works within a space of 2,500 m².

Thanks to its urban solar power plant, in 2019 Grimaldi Forum Monaco became the Principality’s biggest energy producer.

There are currently almost 1,500 photovoltaic panel modules covering an area of 2,500 m² on the roof of the Forum, generating total power of 526 kWc. The annual electricity production of around 640,000 kWh is sufficient to power the equivalent of 170 homes in the Principality.
