The Exotic Garden of Monaco has been a unique site since it was opened to the public in 1933. In its prestigious, open-air setting, it brings together a wide variety of rare plants. Strolling along the foot-bridges high above the cliff, with a splendid view over the Principality and eastwards along the coast, you cannot fail to be impressed by the diversity of the forms of the subtropical flora, made up of highly unusual exotic essences.

The Gala Dinner, kindly hosted by Coller Capital Ltd, will take place on Thursday 15 June 2006 at 20.00 at Salle des Etoiles.
This is the most fascinating ballroom on the French Riviera, a amphitheatre with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the moonlit sea with over 1.000m² in size, and one of the most exceptional ballrooms in Europe. The Salle des Etoiles is part of the exclusive Monte-Carlo Sporting Club, located on an peninsula of 55.000m². “Le Sporting” was inaugurated in 1974 by Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace. Since then, a countless number of major stars performed at least once at “Le Sporting”, from Josephine Baker, who was the star of the opening night, to Frank Sinatra, Elton John and Tina Turner. The list is endless.

The organising committee reserves the right to cancel the optional tours if the total number of attendees is insufficient (minimum 30).
Friday Afternoon Tour and Dinner (optional)
Friday afternoon at Villefranche.
Standing proud on the water's edge, the citadel looks as though it still defends the old town. It was built in 1557 on the site of a smaller fort on the orders of Emmanuel Philibert, Duke of Savoy, by his architect, Provana de Leyni. The citadel will be the playground for an ‘afternoon challenge’ where teams will compete in a friendly atmosphere.
The Friday evening dinner will be held at Beach Resort les Pêcheurs
You couldn't possibly imagine a more enchanting setting for a relaxed seaside evening. Verdant terraces leading to a private sandy beach with a view over the Lérins Islands and the Estérel Hills. Le Cap is a new and avant-garde venue; its baroque design is infused with a contemporary Zen spirit.
