Explora Journeys kicked off the FORMULA 1 TAG HEUER GRAND PRIX DE MONACO 2025 weekend with an exclusive Vanity Fair Club edition aboard EXPLORA II.
Hosted by Simone Marchetti, Vanity Fair's European Editorial Director and Editor-in-Chief of Vanity Fair Italia, and Anna Nash, President of Explora Journeys, the glamorous event unfolded under the glittering lights of Monte Carlo, with EXPLORA II docked in the heart of the principality's iconic port. Against the backdrop of the Riviera's grandeur and the pulse of the Grand Prix, the evening welcomed exceptional guests, cultural figures, and creative visionaries to a celebration that captured the spirit and spectacle of this legendary Monegasque weekend. Guests included Prince Alexandre Grimaldi, Flavio Briatore, Pierfrancesco Vago, Executive Chairman of MSC Group's Cruise Division, Luca de Meo, CEO of Renault, Princess Alexandra of Hanover, and entrepreneur and social media personality Kevin Lütolf.
As the sun set over the French Riviera, the Sky Bar on EXPLORA II transformed into an open-air stage of style and sophistication, a place where the unmistakable energy of Monaco merged with the serene and refined elegance that defines Explora Journeys. For the first time, Vanity Fair brought its legendary Vanity Fair Club concept aboard Explora Journeys.
