A New Spotlight on Male Elegance
On 21 November 2026, La Piazza in Monaco will host the first official Mister France – Monaco Sector Grand Final, celebrating a new generation of men who embrace style, confidence and self-expression.
Beauty pageants have traditionally placed women centre stage, celebrating their elegance, personality and presence. But times are changing. Today, men are increasingly embracing personal care, fashion and grooming, with cosmetics, accessories and dedicated beauty brands becoming an integral part of modern masculinity. The idea of male elegance has evolved, and the spotlight is now turning towards men who are confident in expressing who they are.
Against this backdrop, Monaco is preparing to welcome a new event that puts male talent and charisma in the limelight. Organised by the Miss & Mister Côte d’Azur Committee, presided over by Solange Momha, Mister France regional delegate for the Monaco sector, the inaugural grand final promises an evening where style meets entertainment and ambition.
Throughout the competition, the candidates will make three appearances on stage, presenting themselves in city wear, casual attire and boxer shorts. Each presentation will offer a glimpse of their personality, individual style and stage presence as they compete for the title of Mister France – Monaco Sector 2026. The audience will also have a role to play, with the event inviting spectators to take part in celebrating and recognising the contestants.
Fashion and entertainment will take centre stage thanks to the Elegance Show, produced by Nandy Ayache and her company, including the participation of dancers. Live musical performances by Lorenzo Caltagirone, Vanina Aronica and The Golden Voices will add rhythm and glamour to the evening.
The event is supported by an impressive line-up of sponsors and partners, including Haribo, Bodysculpt, Man’s Beard, Chronostyle, Champagne Pierre Drouilly & Fils, Zepter International, MonacoLove, Heart Monaco Fine Art, Impetus and Gold Tradition Champagne, alongside The Golden Voices Music Awards and Monaco International Music & Arts Club.
Guests will enjoy a special menu prepared by La Piazza, accompanied by champagne and wine. A grand raffle featuring prestigious prizes, including a Jeroboam of Or Addict, spa and salon treatments, and a La Vallée cosmetics gift, will add another touch of excitement. Special guests will also attend, with their identities remaining a surprise until the event.
More than a competition, this first edition marks a milestone for male pageantry in Monaco, reflecting a broader cultural shift in which men are encouraged to celebrate their appearance, individuality and aspirations. As the evening reaches its climax, the winner will be announced and presented with the official sash, marking the beginning of a new chapter.
On 21 November, La Piazza will become the stage for a celebration of contemporary masculinity, elegance and emerging talent proving that beauty, confidence and ambition are not exclusive to women.
