The Après Index
2026–27
Eight resorts. Seventy terraces. One mug of hot wine, priced from £5.51 to £15.42.
The parts of the year people quote when they want receipts. Annual dossiers, quarterly dispatches and the occasional letter, written slowly, edited heavily.
Eight resorts. Seventy terraces. One mug of hot wine, priced from £5.51 to £15.42. The dossier is researched in-house, fact-checked twice and footnoted in the back. Where we changed our minds, we say so. Where we were wrong, we print the retraction.

2,107 event listings. 17 venue calendars. The people who actually work the island.
The same island priced twice, a decade apart. The bed doubled. The door tripled. The meter never moved.
77 clubs. 10 coasts. One question: what does it actually cost to lie down?
A 180-page dossier on the year: what mattered, what changed, who was right. Saddle-stitched, footnoted, sent in the post.
A short read-out at the start of each season. New entries to the indexes, retractions, the editor’s second thoughts.
A note from the road. A funeral, a wedding, an opening, a closure. Members read it within the hour; everyone else within the week.
The corrections. The places we removed and why. We re-rank, we don’t pad. The audit is short on purpose.
“We don’t print the news; we print the receipts. The reports are what we’re prepared to stand behind a year later: the rooms we revisited, the tables we returned to, the people we quietly stopped recommending. They are kept short on purpose.”
Members of The Monaco Club receive every report in print, addressed by hand, posted from the house, with the long footnotes, the names we don’t print online, and the audit kept for the back.
