Monte-Carlo Masters: tickets, travel from Nice and tips
The Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters opens the clay season every April at the Monte-Carlo Country Club, minutes from Nice. Tickets, sales calendar, travel from Nice by train, bus or helicopter: our practical guide to enjoying the tournament without surprises.
The first Masters 1000 event of the clay-court season, the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters is played every April in a unique setting: the Monte-Carlo Country Club, in the French commune of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, east of Monaco. From Nice, it takes about twenty minutes by train.
Be careful not to confuse: the Monte-Carlo Masters takes place in April in Monaco, whereas the Rolex Paris Masters is played in Paris, in the autumn. Two tournaments, two cities, two periods.

Where to sit in the stadium
- Facing the Centre Court (Rainier III): the most expensive categories, ideal for quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals;
- To the side: good value for money, with a close view of the clay;
- Outside courts: day tickets give access to the whole site depending on the category, which lets you move from one court to another and watch the seeded players warm up;
- The first days (qualifying rounds, 1st and 2nd rounds) are the cheapest and richest in matches: the best choice for a first visit.
The exact layout of the stands depends on the category chosen: check the seating plan on the official ticket office before buying.
Getting there from Nice
- By train, the recommended option: ZOU! trains link Nice-Ville to Monaco-Monte-Carlo in about 22 minutes (60 journeys a day). During the tournament, a temporary stop "Monte-Carlo Country Club" is set up between Monaco and Roquebrune, about 500 metres from gate no. 4: from Nice, get off at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, then take a train back the other way. From Monaco, shuttles and the Principality's buses complete the access;
- By bus: Zou! line 600 leaves the port area of Nice every 15 minutes and stops at Saint-Roman, in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Throughout the tournament period, the Principality's buses are free for all passengers;
- By car: A8 motorway, exit no. 56 Monaco. The Salines car park offers a day rate of €6 (bookable in advance), linked to the tournament by free shuttles;
