Play Bar

Marseille doesn’t always get the attention it should, especially for having the second biggest population in France.

The port city is multi-cultural, steeped in history and always intriguing with an ever growing LGBTQ community to discover.

One gay establishment that has been a part of the community since 2012 is Play Bar. This local hangout is consistently filled with Marseille residents and those visiting the city and is a great place to begin your night out.

Just walking into Play Bar you will feel a sense of camaraderie amongst the staff and patrons. Here, the quarters are small but that tight squeeze just means it’s easier to meet people and even with the dance beats thumping, the crowd is always at relaxed and enjoying themselves.

There are nightly drinks specials along with various weekly events and DJ’s both new to the scene and legendary who set the tone for the evening ahead.

If this is your first time in the colorful, artistic world of Marseille, you’ll be easily inspired by the ultra-cool and edgy people you’ll meet at Play Bar.

The Rose Ball in Monaco 2018!

In 1954, The Rose Ball (officially known as the Bal de la Rose) was created by Princess Grace of Monaco. This annual event is organized every year in the month of March and takes place at the prestigious Salle des Etoiles of the Sporting Monte-Carlo.

As in past years, Monaco's royal family slip into their finest attire to attend the grand event which is also known locally as the kick off to the party season in the Principality but more importantly the internationally recognized charity gala raises key funds with all proceeds and other exceptional prizes (sculptures, paintings etc.) going to the Princess Grace Foundation since 1964. This foundation’s vocation is to help people and children in need by developing humanitarian and philanthropic projects.

 

This exceptional event brings together the elite and international high society for the first important social event of the year, certainly making it the gala to see and be seen.

Currently presided by H.S.H. the Sovereign Prince Albert II and H.R.H. Princess Caroline of Hanover, the Rose Ball is a symbol of glamour that maintains the fascinating Monte-Carlo legend that it has helped create. This is certainly an event not to be missed, combining tradition and modern elements created by such legendary designers such as Karl Lagerfeld. 

As a fundraiser for the Princess Grace Foundation, this year, the Bal de la Rose takes place on the evening of Saturday, March 24, 2018.
