Monaco Prepares for Yacht Show Amid Traffic Disruptions and Key Road Closures

Monaco is poised for the grand return of its illustrious Yacht Show, taking place at Port Hercule from September 25 through September 28. As the city prepares to welcome a stunning array of mega-yachts, residents should anticipate significant changes in traffic flow starting August 31. Major routes such as Quai des Etats-Unis/Avenue JF Kennedy, Route de la Piscine, and Quai Antoine I will see the most substantial disruptions, including parking restrictions and temporary closures to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

Efforts are being made to mitigate the impact on daily routines, with organizers collaborating closely with government departments to ensure smoother traffic movement during peak times and prioritizing logistical needs such as school transportation and delivery services. Specifically, the Route de la Piscine will be closed temporarily for two weeks leading up to the event to facilitate the construction of exhibition stands, though it will remain open during the morning rush hour on most days.

Additional conveniences for residents include the arrangement of a temporary parking zone for bicycles and motorbikes on Avenue de la Quarantaine starting September 9. As the festivities wrap up and the yachts depart, normalcy will gradually resume across Monaco's roadways, with all traffic measures expected to be completely lifted by October 10. This period marks a bustling time for the Principality, highlighting its status as a premier global maritime hub.
