Getting yourself to Port Hercules for show week is one thing. Arriving with accommodation locked in, transfers sorted, and a week paced so you're not scrambling between the harbour and a hotel forty minutes away is another. That's the gap Grand Circle fills.

What we arrange

  • Accommodation, sourced and booked in Monaco, Beausoleil or Cap d'Ail depending on availability and your priorities, ahead of the point where everything worth having is sold out.
  • Transfers, from Nice Côte d'Azur, whether that's a private car or a helicopter transfer, timed around your schedule rather than left to whatever's available on the day.
  • Dining, reservations at the tables worth having during a week when Monaco's restaurants are fullest.
  • Pacing, a realistic itinerary that balances harbour time, dining, and at least one outing beyond Monaco if you want it, built from what we cover in our best experiences guide.

What we don't do

We're not a yacht brokerage. If you're in the market to charter or buy, that conversation happens directly with a licensed broker or shipyard, the show itself is built around exactly those relationships. What we can do is make sure the week around that conversation is one you actually enjoy, rather than something squeezed in between meetings.

When to book Monaco Yacht Show week

Monaco Yacht Show week compresses an entire principality's hospitality into four days of peak demand. Piecing it together hotel-by-hotel and transfer-by-transfer after dates are announced routinely means settling for whatever's left. Planned as one trip from the outset, with accommodation secured early, it doesn't.

Frequently asked questions

Does Grand Circle broker yacht charters directly?

No, yacht charter and sale is handled by licensed brokers. Grand Circle arranges the surrounding trip: accommodation, transfers, dining and a properly paced itinerary around show week.

How far ahead should I get in touch?

As early as possible. Monaco's accommodation for show week is the tightest constraint, and it sells out well before the show itself opens.
