Monaco Streaming Film Festival

31st October – 2nd November https://streamingff.com

The Monaco Streaming Film Festival (MCSFF), in partnership with the Reg Grundy Innovation Award, the paramount Global Entertainment initiative in the name of the legendary Australian Media tycoon, is back to the Grimaldi Forum from the 31st October to the 2nd November 2023, just after Sportel. It features a parade of new meetings, keynote speeches, masterclasses, screenings and premieres open to the Monegasque public. The aim is to present the latest media-tech trends while coming into contact with the most relevant VIPs, influencers and charismatic characters operating in the field — including producers, distributors, creators, financiers and talented figures from the Film and Content streaming industry. The festival is going to run over a three-full-day enriched program which will be constantly hosting film screenings at the Grimaldi Forum. MCSFF is also a privileged location to boost valuable business networking, enter the virtual global market (accessible throughout the year) and experience a hint of glamour at the Red Carpet & Gala Awards.

Monaco National Day 19th November

Monaco National Day is traditionally celebrated on November 19th and is the principal day of the year for the residents of the Principality to demonstrate their commitment to the state and the Prince. In addition, it is the day of the commemoration of the independence of the Principality, a holiday that was celebrated for the first time on May 16, 1734 under Prince Honoré III. A little more than a century later, Prince Charles III changed the date of the celebration to 4th November. However, the current Prince of Monaco Albert II decided to make this day also a Memorial Day to his father Rainier III and postponed the date to the 19th of November. You have an important opportunity to demonstrate your loyalty to the Principality of Monaco on this special day!
