The Monte-Carlo Sporting (French: Sporting Monte-Carlo), also known as Sporting d'été,[1] is a building complex in Larvotto, Monaco. It includes the Salle des Etoiles, a concert hall, and it is the main venue for society fundraisers in Monaco.

History

The Monte-Carlo Sporting was built by Group Pastor, a construction company chaired by Victor Pastor, from 1973 to 1974,[2] and renovated in 1999. It is owned by the Société des bains de mer de Monaco (SBM).[3]

Many society fundraisers, formerly held at the Sporting d'Hiver, are now held at the Salle des Etoiles inside the Sporting d'été.[1][4] For example, it is home to the annual summer festival, the Monte-Carlo Red Cross Ball and the Rose Ball.[4][5]
