Prince Louis II founded the Monegasque Red Cross on 3 March 1948. On 10 August its first gala night, at the Sporting d'Été, starred Maurice Chevalier. Prince Albert II has been its president since 1982.
The Salle des Étoiles
The roof opens
Opened in 1974, the hall seats up to 802 for dinner. On summer nights its roof slides back to the stars, and the fireworks go up over the sea.
