From Miami’s sparkling coastline to the cinematic heights of Cannes — and now back to its birthplace in Monaco — SUNSET is more than a beach party. It’s a global celebration of rhythm, creativity, and unforgettable, mind-blowing experiences. From May 23 to 25, 2025, SUNSET returns to the Méridien Beach Plaza for its 12th edition, just as the Monaco Grand Prix electrifies the city. What began as an intimate moment has evolved into a world-class lifestyle event, uniting music lovers, art enthusiasts, and tastemakers from around the world. Imagined in 2013 by Cédric Houdrouge and Thomas Peeters, SUNSET has stayed true to its original spirit while steadily growing into an international phenomenon.
“Sunset started as a friends-and-family gathering. Now we’re curating world-class experiences with iconic artists—still rooted in our love for high-quality music, never losing the soul,” said Cédric.

SUNSET’s evolution from a private gathering to a globe-trotting cultural highlight reflects its unique DNA: effortless sophistication, immersive energy, and a community-driven spirit. In 2025 alone, the brand has already left its mark on Miami Grand Prix weekend and lit up the 78th Cannes Film Festival with an exclusive night in collaboration with the legendary Le Baron.
Now back in the Principality for its flagship celebration, SUNSET fuses global inspiration with its Monaco roots. Set against the glistening Mediterranean and framed by Formula 1’s most glamorous weekend, SUNSET 2025 is poised to be its most spectacular edition yet.
This year’s lineup promises a high-energy musical journey curated with purpose and soul. PAWSA, the London-based tech-house innovator, opens the weekend with his hypnotic minimal grooves. He’s followed by Honey Dijon, a global icon whose bold fusion of house, disco, and style has made her one of the most sought-after artists in the world. Completing the headliners are Parallelle, the Monaco-raised brothers who’ve conquered stages like Burning Man and Tomorrowland — now returning to perform at home for a very special set.
Casa Sunset: the soul of SUNSET, poolside
Back for its second edition in 2025, Casa Sunset returns as an elevated yet laid-back hub that captures the SUNSET vibe at its most relaxed and refined. Set poolside and open until 3 AM each day, Casa Sunset offers live F1 screenings, smooth daytime grooves, and a warm, inclusive atmosphere where music, culture, and lifestyle blend effortlessly.
Latin-inspired menus curated by renowned chefs Paola Segura and Yoni Gurman bring bold, sun-soaked flavors to Monaco, while custom playlists and spontaneous performances keep the energy flowing from lunch into the early hours.
It’s a sanctuary where elegance meets ease — and where luxury is defined by experience rather than formality.
A Living Canvas in Monaco
Beyond music, SUNSET continues its tradition of blending contemporary art with natural beauty. Returning to the venue is acclaimed French artist Richard Orlinski, presenting a new series of monumental sculptures that transform the site into a beachfront gallery. Immersive lighting, aerial performances, and multi-sensory installations will guide guests through a visual and emotional journey — culminating in nightly fireworks lighting up the Monaco sky.
Every element — from the setting to the soundtrack — is designed to create a fully immersive universe where creativity and celebration meet.
