What's on in Monaco, 18th to 24th Mar.

The unofficial guide to events in Monaco.

We hope you like music, because there's a lot of it about this weekend. There are performances of Verdi's Falstaff at the Opera, and several concerts featuring Brahms as part of the annual Printemps des Arts. If your tastes are more modern, check out Stroppa's "...hist...whist..." with the engineers from IRCAM. On the popular front you'll find gypsy jazz, a Springsteen tribute band, and Frenchman Renan Luce. Et pour vous qui parlez français, il y a beaucoup de rires aux Serenissimes de l'Humour (Comedy Festival). Get your running shoes out on Sunday for the Monaco half marathon, and get your wallets out for Live Art Monaco which is helping to build a school in Madagascar. Enjoy!
