20 Years of Elegance, Solidarity and Philanthropic Commitment
Set in the magnificent Salle Empire of the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, the Bal de Noël celebrated its 20th anniversary, marking two decades of festive glamour, generosity and philanthropic impact.
The event, organized by Five Stars Events and held under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Princess Charlene of Monaco, welcomed international guests in support of the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation, dedicated to child safety, drowning prevention and education through sport.
This milestone edition not only signaled the official opening of Monaco’s holiday season, but also reaffirmed the Principality’s enduring commitment to solidarity and charitable giving.
A key highlight of the evening was the Sotheby’s charity auction, with proceeds benefiting the Foundation’s essential initiatives.
Prestigious partners elevated the experience, including the Italian luxury house Xerjoff, which also celebrated its own 20th anniversary during the gala, contributing to the refined and festive atmosphere. Guests enjoyed exceptional wines, including selections from La Scolca, renowned producers of the iconic Gavi dei Gavi, alongside other distinguished offerings.
The Salle Empire, adorned with bespoke décor and elegant floral arrangements, hosted an unforgettable evening of gala dinner, fine wines, charity auction and dancing, celebrating Christmas tradition, philanthropy and cultural elegance at the heart of Monte-Carlo.
A toast to 20 years of giving, glamour and shared values, and to the lasting legacy of the Bal de Noël and the Fondation Princesse Charlene de Monaco in supporting children and communities worldwide.
