From May 7 to 11, the Grimaldi Forum transformed into a celebration of speed, elegance, and exclusivity as Top Marques Monaco marked its 20th anniversary. The event brought together global premieres, automotive icons, luxury fashion and jewelry, and even interactive crypto talks. Visitors from around the world stepped into an unforgettable atmosphere where hypercars shared the spotlight with vintage classics, family-friendly fun, and world-class innovation.
The 2025 edition of Top Marques delivered an unmatched lineup of world premieres. Aston Martin unleashed the Vanquish Volante, the most powerful British roadster ever made. Meanwhile, Italian craft and design came to life through the all new Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider from BPM Exclusive. Lamborghini wowed the crowd with the hybrid Temerario, pushing 920 horsepower and sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds. Rimac brought raw electric energy with the Nevera, a hypercar accelerating to 100 km/h in just 1.85 seconds. BRABUS, Mansory, Modena Automobili, and more joined the show, making this year’s supercar lineup the most diverse and dynamic yet.
Beyond the futuristic thrills, Top Marques celebrated timeless elegance in its dedicated Classic Cars Hall. Collectors and nostalgia lovers gathered around rare models like the 1964 Iso Grifo A3C by Bizzarrini and the ultra-rare McLaren Senna GTR. The event also unveiled vehicles from the royal collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco, including Sébastien Loeb’s 2008 Dakar machine and a Formula 1 car once piloted by Martin Brundle. The atmosphere blended admiration and awe, making it a haven for motorsport historians and vintage car fans alike.
Luxury extended far beyond the showroom floor. Prestigious names like Bemon, Terzihan, and C.C. Watches showcased premium timepieces and fine jewelry under the same roof as hypercars. The exhibition space buzzed with style and opulence, offering the perfect fusion between speed and sophistication. For collectors and lifestyle seekers, it was a rare chance to admire rare gems, shop exclusive merchandise, and meet the makers behind some of the world's most elegant accessories.
Top Marques 2025 proved to be more than just a car show. Families enjoyed LEGO workshops, art competitions, and the Carspotter Awards that rewarded the best car photos with iPhone 16 PROs. A standout moment was the free crypto education session hosted by Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas in partnership with zondacrypto. The interactive talk introduced blockchain basics in a fun, easygoing format, with giveaways and quizzes to engage all age groups. Young artist Aran, just 10 years old, left his mark with a limited edition supercar artwork created especially for the anniversary, making this celebration truly one for everyone.
