The real problem

Exhibiting in Monaco means exhibiting at luxury level

Monaco hosts some of the most demanding events in Europe: the Yacht Show, Luxe Pack, Top Marques. Luxury exhibitors, exceptional venues and operating rules the Principality does not forgive.

01

The luxury standard everywhere

At the Yacht Show or Luxe Pack, your neighbours are luxury houses and shipyards. An average finish gets noticed immediately.

02

The Principality has its own rules

Limited heavy-goods access, cramped unloading zones, very short assembly time slots: logistics in Monaco cannot be improvised.

03

Middlemen mark-ups

Many agencies charge “Monaco” prices then outsource the manufacturing. You pay the local margin, not the quality.

Our answer

A French manufacturer, zero Monaco middlemen

TheStandExperts is a stand builder and manufacturer: in-house design office, workshop and installation teams. Your Monaco stand is built and pre-assembled in our workshop in France, then transported and installed in the Principality by the same team. As Monaco is in a customs union with France, no customs formalities complicate the transport: you pay for the manufacturing, not middlemen’s margins. That is the difference between an agency that designs and a manufacturer of exhibition stands.

We design and build every format: custom exhibition stand, modular stand, double-decker stand and event stand.

François Sire, founder of TheStandExperts

“In Monaco there is zero tolerance: one visible panel edge, one average light, and the stand looks out of place next to the luxury houses. That is exactly why we pre-assemble everything in the workshop before heading down.”

We answer everything

Exhibition stand builder in Monaco: your frequently asked questions

Yes, and it is actually an advantage: Monaco is in a customs union with France, so there are no customs formalities and no special VAT on transport. Your stand is built and pre-assembled in our workshop, transported to the Principality and installed by our own teams. You simply avoid the margins of a local middleman.

Expect €300 to €500 per sqm for a modular stand, €600 to €1,500 for a custom stand and €1,000 to €2,000 per sqm of total floor area for a double-decker stand. At events in Monaco, plan for the upper end of these ranges: the expected level of finish is high. Transport and Principality logistics are included as a flat rate in the quote.

Allow 1 to 2 months for a modular stand and 2 to 6 months for a custom stand. The Yacht Show and major Grimaldi Forum events require technical files and impose very short assembly slots: the earlier you start, the more refined the design and the smoother the logistics.

Through full pre-assembly in our workshop: your stand is assembled a first time at our premises, checked, then dismantled into ready-to-assemble elements. On site, our teams discover nothing: they reassemble a stand that has already been tested, within the hours set by the organiser.

Depending on the halls and events, double-decker structures are possible subject to a technical file approved by the organiser and an inspection body. We design the structure, produce the structural calculations and manage the approval: double-decker stands are our speciality.

Yes: pop-up showrooms, launches, gala dinners and private presentations at the Hôtel de Paris, the Fairmont or the Sporting. These venues demand discretion, night-time assembly and a flawless finish: exactly what our workshop manufacturing makes possible.

Yes: after dismantling, your stand returns to our workshop where it is stored, maintained and reconfigured for the next stage, in Monaco, Cannes or elsewhere in Europe. The investment pays for itself over several years, and it is also the most sustainable choice.

Your event in Monaco deserves a finish worthy of the venue.
