Monaco F1 Grand Prix 2026: Berthing Applications, New Dates & What to Know

Monaco F1 Grand Prix 2026: Berthing Applications, New Dates & What to Know

Applications have now just open for yachts planning to participate in the event from within Monaco’s main harbour (Port Hercule). Applications for a berth can be submitted until 27 February 2026, after which registration will close and the allocation committee will have, as every year, approximately one month to select the lucky participants.

New dates – (almost) same rules…

The big change for the 2026 edition is that the Grand Prix will take place on the first weekend of June (instead of the last weekend of May, as has historically been the case).

Formula 1 – Louis Vuitton – Monaco Grand Prix – 2026 – will take place on Sunday 7 June!

The rules have not changed significantly, so as usually, we can expect a number of requests for berth reservation much higher than the number of places available and for that reason, the Formula One Grand Prix de Monaco allocation Commission will give priority to those directly related to Formula 1, the Monaco Grand Prix and their sponsors.

Obviously, having a local yacht agent who is well integrated and efficient will facilitate the management of your request.

As for a small projection into the future, the Principality’s place on the Formula 1 calendar is now well secured until at least 2035 adding to the excitement, the new projects and maintaining the pressure on berthing. 

Once again transforming the Principality into the epicentre of global motorsport, yachting, and high-level hospitality.

Since 1929, drivers, teams, and spectators have faced the same challenge: mastering Monaco’s narrow streets, unforgiving barriers, legendary corners, and that tunnel everyone pretends is easy. Few circuits demand as much precision, and none deliver the same intensity.

Adding to an already exceptional season, Monaco will also host the 15th Edition of the Monaco Historic / Classic Grand Prix, bringing iconic cars and heritage racing back to the streets of the Principality between 24th and 26th April 2026, as well as a new edition of the FIA Formula E Monaco E-Prix on 16 & 17th May 2026.

Watching any of these events from a yacht in Port Hercule remains one of the most exclusive ways to experience Monaco at full throttle.
