Young Artists Get Spotlight at Fort Antoine Open Stage Competition
Monaco's 4th annual open stage event gives emerging talent aged 16-30 professional performance opportunities, with this year's winner heading to Belgrade's 2027 World Expo.
The fourth edition of Fort Antoine's open stage initiative returns to provide emerging artists between 16 and 30 with a platform to showcase their talents before live audiences in professional conditions. The programme forms part of the Cultural Affairs Department's ongoing commitment to supporting youth development through the arts.
This year brings an extraordinary incentive for participants, as one standout performer will earn the chance to represent Monaco at the 2027 Universal Exhibition in Belgrade, Serbia. The selection represents a remarkable international opportunity for young Monégasque talent.
The open stage format allows diverse performers to demonstrate their skills in a prestigious venue, bridging the gap between amateur enthusiasm and professional exposure. Fort Antoine's intimate amphitheatre setting provides an ideal backdrop for artists to connect with audiences whilst honing their craft in a supportive environment.
