Top Marques Monaco 2026 has delivered its most successful edition to date, with exhibitors rebooking for 2027 before opening day even concluded.

The 21st edition showcased more than 235 supercars, classic cars, and motorbikes, achieving record attendance and multiple high-value sales across all categories. Seven-figure supercars sold in every hall, with one classic car dealer selling their entire inventory. A watch exhibitor moved 18 timepieces at €30,000+ each, while the jewellery section confirmed multiple transactions.

The inaugural Collectors’ Private Viewing, sponsored by Ex Jets, gave serious collectors exclusive early access on May 6. The response was immediate, with exhibitors reporting confirmed deals and 2027 bookings within hours.

Standout launches included the Audi RS5 plug-in hybrid, the Giamaro Krafla hypercar with 2,157 horsepower, and OQTA’s first hyper-luxury masterpiece. OQTA won the inaugural Top Marques Visitors Award in the Supercar category, while Car & Car took the Classic Car prize. Mansory was awarded the prize in the Luxury Tuners section.

Star-Studded Week

H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco made a private visit, while the event welcomed Paul Pogba, Fernando Alonso, Mika Häkkinen, and influencers Shmee150 and GMK. Final attendance figures are expected to exceed 22,000 visitors over four and a half days.

“We had exhibitors rebooking before we’d even opened to the public—unprecedented,” said Emeric Garcia, Director of Top Marques Monaco. “2027 will be bigger, better, and even more ambitious.”

Organisers would like to thank sponsors Dassault Aviation, Ex Jets, Carfooly Media, ADeco-Flamme, and A Roca Gourmet for their support, along with all partners, exhibitors, and visitors for their presence.

By our side for the past six years as a loyal sponsor of Top Marques Monaco, Dassault Aviation once again reaffirms its commitment to excellence and innovation. For the 2026 edition, the iconic French brand returns with a remarkable presence, showcasing its flagship in business aviation: the Falcon 10X.

Dassault Aviation relies on recognized expertise and decades of experience covering the entire aircraft lifecycle—from design and production to marketing and support. The group masters a wide range of programs, from the Rafale fighter jet to the Falcon family of business jets, while also developing military drones and space solutions.

The all-new Falcon 10X pushes the boundaries of ultra-long-range private jets. Designed to deliver an unparalleled travel experience, it features the largest cabin in its class, exceptional modularity, and a level of comfort comparable to the finest hotel suites, enabling flights of over 15 hours. Thanks to cutting-edge innovations, particularly in cabin pressurization and noise reduction, every journey becomes a truly unique experience.

Beyond luxury, Dassault Aviation also places performance and sustainability at the core of its strategy. The Falcon 10X incorporates significant advances in energy efficiency and emissions reduction, addressing today’s environmental challenges in aviation while delivering an exceptional onboard experience.

We are delighted to count them among our sponsors and to have them present throughout this 2026 edition of Top Marques.

We are delighted to announce that EX JETS, a leader in private aviation, has been named the official private jet charter partner for this event.

Klysmann Afonso, CEO of EX JETS, added: “Top Marques Monaco is the ideal setting for EX JETS. The people who travel to Monaco every May to admire the most beautiful cars ever built are those who understand that time is the most precious luxury. Traveling by private jet with the right partner is the only way to truly honor it. We share the conviction that only the extraordinary is good enough.”
