inVOYAGE 2019 heads to Monaco
We’re thrilled to reveal that inVOYAGE is heading to Monaco this year. We have partnered with the Monaco Government Tourist & Convention Authority and its local partners to bring inVOYAGE 2019 to the Principality on 6-9 October.
Taking place at the famous Hotel Hermitage Monte-Carlo and brand-new conference space One Monte-Carlo, inVOYAGE 2019 will create an encompassing destination and cultural discovery showcasing hotels and venues such as the re-invented Hotel de Paris Monte-Carlo, the refurbished Columbus Monte-Carlo, and the uber luxury Hotel Metropole.
Richard Joslin, inVOYAGE co-founder and CEO said: “We are absolutely delighted to be bringing inVOYAGE to the Principality of Monaco in 2019. We’ve been working closely with the Monaco Tourist Authority and all its partners for several months now with the objective of showcasing a new side to Monaco – a juxtaposition of classic and contemporary luxury underpinned by authenticity, sustainability and Monegasque culture. We’re very excited for what’s in store at inVOYAGE 2019 in Monaco.”
Overlooking the Mediterranean and adjacent to the Casino Square, the Hotel Hermitage Monte-Carlo is a classically elegant luxury five-star hotel with heritage listed rooms such as the famous Winter Garden and the exclusive Salle Belle Époque (below). Set to open in spring 2019, One Monte-Carlo will offer ten meeting spaces, each of which will bear the name of an artist who has made a mark on Monaco’s history.
inVOYAGE will be working with CMX Event Management to coordinate the whole programme together with Monaco’s luxury hotels, destination management companies and local partners.
Stephan Degueurce-Roberge, Monaco Tourist Authority Managing Director said: “inVOYAGE is the perfect fit for our destination and together with all our partners we are very excited to welcome this fantastic event in our Principality to showcase the most extensive renovation of the heart of Monte-Carlo with the newly expanded Hotel de Paris and the One Monte-Carlo. Let’s make inVOYAGE 2019 a very inspiring edition full of innovation and opportunity.”
