Dates as published for the 2027 Formula 1 calendar. In 2027 the race moves from its traditional late May slot to early June, and Monaco is a sprint weekend for the first time: cars run from Friday 4 June with qualifying on both Friday and Saturday, so the quiet Thursday of past years is gone.
How the weekend works
Four modes of transport, each with a catch
During the Grand Prix the roads that form the circuit close for much of each day and reopen in the evening. Movement inside the Principality is on foot, by tender or by the few roads left open, and vehicle access to the harbour is tightly controlled. Anyone staying on a yacht in Port Hercule needs to know when they can and cannot reach it.
Nice airport is at its busiest of the year, with slots and parking for private aircraft rationed, and the helicopter shuttle to Monaco is the sensible way to cover the last miles. We arrange the aircraft, the helicopter, the yacht and the cars, and plan the movements around the track schedule. Cars on the Riviera are arranged through operators we know.

Your yacht, your hotel or your hospitality. We stay in touch with the captain and the driver all weekend.
Planning it well
Things worth knowing
- Berths in Port Hercule with a view of the track are limited and booked many months ahead. See Port Hercule
- Yachts unable to secure a berth anchor off and run guests in by tender, which can be a very good way to do it
- Aircraft slots and parking at Nice must be requested early. Some aircraft drop passengers and reposition elsewhere
- Staying in Nice, Cap Ferrat, Èze or Menton and travelling in each day works well by helicopter or boat, less well by road
- Cannes Film Festival ends shortly before, so the Riviera is busy for the whole of late May and early June

Questions people ask
About Monaco travel
Can a car reach the harbour during the race weekend?
Only at certain times and with the right access. We plan movements around the track schedule and use tenders and the helicopter where cars cannot go.
Who operates the yachts and aircraft?
We arrange every charter with operators we know and stay responsible for the whole itinerary.
How early should we book?
For a berth with a view, the previous autumn is not too soon. For flights and cars, as early as you can.
Are you an official partner of the Grand Prix?
No. We are an independent company arranging travel to and from the event.
