In the rarefied world of high luxury, few events manage to continuously redefine their identity while remaining anchored in excellence. Top Marques Monaco has done precisely that—transforming itself from a prestigious supercar showcase into a global platform for innovation, craftsmanship, and visionary design.

At the helm of this evolution is Emeric Garcia, Director of Top Marques Monaco, whose vision has been instrumental in shaping the event’s expanding international stature. In this conversation, he shares insights into the latest edition and the future of one of the world’s most exclusive luxury showcases.

The most recent edition confirms not only the event’s enduring appeal, but also its growing influence across the international luxury landscape.

A Record-Breaking Edition Driven by Global Demand

This year’s edition of Top Marques Monaco stands as a testament to both ambition and precision. With “a record-breaking 235 vehicles on display,” the event has reached an unprecedented scale, underscoring its ability to attract the most extraordinary machines ever conceived.

Among the defining highlights is the introduction of the Luxury Tuners Hall, a strategic addition reflecting shifting market dynamics. As Emeric Garcia explains, “This new addition was inspired by the success of last year’s event, where brands like Mansory demonstrated the strong market demand for these extraordinary vehicles.”

The result is a curated environment where customization, individuality, and engineering audacity converge.

Yet beyond the machinery, it is the audience that reveals the event’s true momentum. “We have also to date sold roughly 40 per cent more tickets compared with this time last year,” Garcia notes. This surge reflects a broader phenomenon: a new generation of collectors and connoisseurs seeking immersive luxury experiences rather than static exhibitions.

Top Marques Monaco is no longer simply attended—it is anticipated, traveled for, and lived.

Beyond the Supercar: A Curated Universe of Luxury

To describe Top Marques Monaco as merely an automotive event would now be reductive. As Garcia emphasizes, “it is no longer just a supercar show but a curated experience that brings together the finest in automotive excellence, luxury watches, tender superboats, and other high-end innovations.”

This evolution has elevated the event into a multidisciplinary showcase, where horology, marine design, and cutting-edge technology coexist seamlessly. At its core lies a defining strength: its　ability to serve as “a podium for world premieres.” In an industry where unveiling is everything, Top Marques Monaco has become a stage of global significance.

Its identity is guided by a clear philosophy—“excellence, luxury, innovation, and inspiration.” These values are not abstract ideals but tangible criteria shaping every aspect of the exhibition, from exhibitor selection to visitor experience.

The result is a rare ecosystem where avant-garde engineering meets artisanal craftsmanship, and where each object—whether a hypercar or a timepiece—tells a story of ambition and mastery.

The Future of Luxury: Innovation, Sustainability, and Global Expansion

As the automotive world undergoes a profound transformation, Top Marques Monaco is not merely adapting—it is actively shaping the narrative. “The event is fully embracing the shift towards innovation, electrification, and sustainability while staying true to its core luxury DNA,” Garcia explains.

This delicate balance is visible in the increasing presence of electric and hybrid supercars, alongside traditional combustion masterpieces. Rather than replacing heritage, innovation enhances it—ensuring relevance without compromising identity.

Looking ahead, the 2026 edition promises to deepen this trajectory. Visitors can expect “a continued focus on showcasing world premieres and cutting-edge advancements,” alongside expanded sectors including luxury tuners, classic cars, and high-end lifestyle products. Notably, “there will be a strong emphasis on sustainability and electrification,” reflecting both industry evolution and shifting consumer values.

Beyond the event itself, a broader vision is taking shape. As part of Informa Prestige, Top Marques Monaco is integrated into what Garcia describes as “the world’s first integrated luxury ecosystem.” This network connects elite audiences with exclusive experiences and authoritative content, amplifying the event’s global resonance.

The ambition extends even further. “We have been approached to organise Top Marques events in destinations across the world,” he reveals, signaling potential international expansion. Such a move would not dilute the brand, but rather extend its philosophy—bringing its distinctive blend of exclusivity and innovation to new cultural contexts.

From Monaco to the world, Top Marques Monaco continues to evolve as both a mirror and a catalyst of contemporary luxury. Guided by the vision of Emeric Garcia, it remains rooted in craftsmanship while propelled by innovation—offering more than spectacle, but a compelling vision of the future of luxury.

Or, as its guiding ethos suggests, a future where excellence is not only displayed, but continuously reimagined.
