Visit to The Monaco Palace And Temporary Exhibition
“Wedding of the Century"
Tuesday 22 September 2026 11:00am to 12:00pm
Monaco Palace, 98000 Monaco
Join us for a private guided tour in English of the Palace, the highlight of which includes the temporary exhibition "Wedding of the Century", to borrow the phrase coined by the press at the time. The exhibition takes visitors on a journey via "photographs, moving images, audio recordings, jewellery, dresses, gifts, and previously unseen archives, .... to discover the key figures, locations, highlights, and behind-the-scenes moments of a week of festivities—organised in just three months—from the spectacular welcome of Grace Kelly on the morning of 12 April to the royal couple’s departure on their honeymoon on the evening of the 19th."
We will meet up outside the main entrance to the Palace at 10.45 at the latest. The palace website states that as it is an historic building, there is no wheelchair access (access via stairs only).
For those who wish to stay on for lunch we will find a restaurant nearby. When registering please tick box if you would like to join for lunch or not so that we have an indication of numbers.
Lunch cost NOT included in tour and must be paid for individually.
