History
The Monte-Carlo Sporting was built by Group Pastor, a construction company chaired by Victor Pastor, from 1973 to 1974,[2] and renovated in 1999. It is owned by the Société des bains de mer de Monaco (SBM).[3]
Many society fundraisers, formerly held at the Sporting d'Hiver, are now held at the Salle des Etoiles inside the Sporting d'été.[1][4] For example, it is home to the annual summer festival, the Monte-Carlo Red Cross Ball and the Rose Ball.[4][5]
