On November 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, La Monnaie shows its commitment to this cause by supporting the organisation Zonta.
Founded in 1919, Zonta is an inter-professional network with more than 20,000 members in 63 countries. This international, non-political, organisation brings together men and women in positions of responsibility in administration, commerce and industry. Together, they work for the empowerment of women and the access to education for girls.
To show its support, La Monnaie is lighting up its façade in orange, the colour chosen by the UN to symbolise the fight against gender-based violence.
On 29 July and 1 August 2026, the world’s most prestigious opera festival will welcome the La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra and its Music Director Alain Altinoglu for two concert performances of Massenet’s Werther.
La Monnaie Chorus Master Emmanuel Trenque has been awarded the Médaille du Rayonnement Culturel by La Renaissance Française.
On December 14th at 3 p.m., two singers from the MM Academy and the Cassandra Choir will take part in the annual charity Christmas concert organised by the be.Source Foundation at the Sablon.
