Remember that it was the architects Alexandre Giraldi and Patrick Raymond who had the honor of extending the building designed at the end of the 1990 by Fabrice Notari and Frédéric Genin. If the worthy heir of Prince Rainier opted for a refined blue tuxedo, the mother of Jacques and Gabriella made a strong impression by setting her sights on a sumptuous purple velvet ensemble, thus highlighting her athletic look. In addition to having opted for glamorous and very discreet makeup, the former swimmer bet on an elegant bun while leaving a few loose, wavy strands on the side.

An unforgettable evening that will remain engraved in people’s minds

Alongside other prestigious guests such as Stéphane Bern or even Charly Nestor, Albert II and Charlene of Monaco also attended an incredible show from the Salle des Princes which retraced the history of the center through six dance scenes in addition testimonials from artists, producers, organizers and directors. The inaugural speech delivered by the Prince Rainier on July 20, 2000 was also highlighted.

This sumptuous performance created by Jean-Christophe Maillot, choreographer and director of the Ballets de Monte-Carlo, brought together on stage students from the Princess Grace Dance Academy, but also internationally renowned artists from the‘instar d’Olga Smirnova or même Victor Caixeta. At the end of the show, Prince Albert II and Charlene of Monaco then unveiled the new extension personally blessed by Father Jean-Ariel Bauza Salinas. Yesterday, this new space of almost 6,000 m² was completely transformed to host the long-awaited reception, during which delicious cocktails and exceptional dishes were served to the guests, before giving way to a Electro Winter Party for the second part of the evening.
