Where to go in Menton: events, concerts and shows worth your night
Menton is the last French town before Italy, with a lemon festival that fills February, a summer of chamber music on the cathedral square, and a gentle night of terraces on the seafront. Below is where to go in Menton for an evening out, with addresses, and what tends to be on when.
Concerts and events in Menton
The Festival de Musique de Menton, one of the oldest chamber music festivals in Europe, has played on the Parvis Saint-Michel, the cathedral square above the old port, every August since 1950; the Palais de l’Europe (8 avenue Boyer) holds the year-round concerts, theatre and the casino’s shows. Monaco, twenty minutes west by train, adds the Opéra de Monte-Carlo and the Grimaldi Forum to the calendar.
Menton nightlife: the old town and the seafront
Menton is not a late town: the evening is on the terraces of the Promenade du Soleil and the Quai Bonaparte, in the old town’s restaurants and around the covered market. The Riviera clubs are in Monaco and Nice; the last train to Nice leaves around midnight.
Museums and galleries in Menton
The Musée Jean Cocteau holds the Séverin Wunderman collection, the largest Cocteau collection anywhere, in the Bastion on the seafront, and Cocteau’s own Salle des Mariages in the town hall can be visited by day. The Palais Carnolès museum and the Serre de la Madone and Val Rahmeh gardens complete the set.
