The Grimaldi Forum Monaco received the Gold Award in the "Venues and Territories" category at the Nuit de l'événementiel in Paris.
In February, Catherine Alestchenkoff, Director of Cultural Events, and Olivier Monchal, Head of Business Development in France at the Grimaldi Forum Monaco, presented the summer exhibition Couleurs! Masterpieces from the Centre Pompidou at a pitch session organised as part of the 4ᵉ edition of the Nuit de l'Événementiel, before a jury made up of professionals and major players in the sector. The Awards ceremony was held on Monday 9 March at the Théâtre Mogador in Paris, in the presence of over 1,200 guests.
At this year's Grand Oral, the jury was keen to pay tribute to the innovative approach developed for this exhibition, in particular through the implementation of a multi-sensory experience (sight, smell, hearing) designed to enrich visitors' discovery.
Sylvie Biancheri, General Director of the Grimaldi Forum Monaco, said: " This exhibition was a huge success, both in terms of visitor numbers and brand awareness, as it is now one of the Grimaldi Forum's Top 3 most successful exhibitions, with 76,500 visitors. I'm delighted that the inventiveness of the Grimaldi Forum's teams has been recognised and praised by professionals in the events industry.
This latest award adds to the list of some thirty accolades received in recent years, including the title of Best International Convention Centre at the M&IT Awards and the Handipact Trophy awarded by the Prince's Government for inclusive initiatives during the summer exhibition in 2025.
