Each May, as the engines roar and champagne flows along Monaco’s legendary coastline, something extraordinary begins to pulse just meters from the Formula 1 circuit. Nestled on the private beach of the Méridien Beach Plaza, SUNSET has emerged as the unmissable music and lifestyle experience of Grand Prix weekend — a beach party like no other, where the sea meets sound in a perfect, sun-drenched symphony.
From May 23 to 25, 2025, SUNSET takes over the Riviera for three unforgettable days, running noon to midnight, and drawing an eclectic, international crowd that includes jet-setters, music lovers, and creatives from around the world. Somewhere between a boutique music festival and a luxury beach lounge, SUNSET occupies a genre all its own — intimate yet spectacular, relaxed yet relentlessly high-energy.
This year’s line-up is once again set to deliver an expertly curated soundtrack to the Riviera’s most glamorous weekend. Expect world-class DJs and genre-defying performers who seamlessly blend house, Afro, electronic, and global grooves — all paired with theatrical shows, spontaneous moments, and immersive visuals that turn every sunset into a story. While the full line-up remains tightly guarded, SUNSET has earned a reputation for booking cutting-edge talent alongside internationally recognized names — a sonic journey that flows as effortlessly as the rosé.
What truly sets SUNSET apart is its ambience — a harmonious blend of wild freedom and refined elegance. Guests party barefoot in the sand beneath palm trees, flanked by pop-up champagne bars and curated dining, all to the beat of world-class sound systems. The crowd? Think models, music insiders, artists, and Riviera locals — all united in one of the most vibrant, welcoming atmospheres the global festival scene has to offer.
As the sun dips behind the Monaco skyline and the music swells, it becomes clear: this is not just a party, it’s a pilgrimage. A radiant celebration of life, beauty, and connection — of the elemental joy of dancing by the sea with strangers who feel like friends.
Founders Cédric Houdrouge and Thomas Peeters have built SUNSET into a true cultural moment — one that continues to expand with international editions on the horizon, including a much-anticipated Miami chapter.
Whether you’re coming for the beats, the beach, or the unforgettable energy, SUNSET Monaco is more than a destination — it’s a feeling. And once you’ve experienced it, you’ll never look at beach parties the same way again.
