Monaco Celebrates the 21st Edition of Red Nose Day: A Collector’s Edition for a Cause

On Saturday, 6 December 2025, the Principality will once again unite in generosity and joy as the Association Les Enfants de Frankie celebrates the 21st Monaco Red Nose Day, held under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco. Marking more than two decades of solidarity, this year’s edition is particularly special, offering the first-ever collector’s series of iconic red noses released since 2005.  

Founded in 1997, Les Enfants de Frankie has been supporting sick, disabled, and disadvantaged children across Monaco and the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region for over 25 years. Since 2023, the association has been honoured with the Honorary Presidency of H.S.H. Prince Albert II, further strengthening its mission and visibility.  

A Collector’s Edition to Celebrate 21 Years

To mark this milestone, the 2025 edition introduces a remarkable collection bringing together all red noses and charity items launched over the past two decades. Supporters will find:

• the classic red nose,
• the yellow smiley designs (star, heart, wink),
• red and white versions with wink motifs,
• charity shopping bags, and
• the festive “Frankie” Christmas balls.

Prices remain symbolic — €2.50 for red noses and shopping bags, and €5 for Christmas balls — ensuring that everyone can participate in this joyful charitable tradition.  

Sales begin in mid-October and continue through December, available at Carrefour hypermarkets, Monaco post offices, pharmacies, and official stands throughout the Principality. A full list of locations is available on: www.lesenfantsdefrankie.com.  

Where to Find the Official Stands

Dedicated stands will be available on several key dates:

• 22 October & 5 November – CHPG, 11:00–16:00
• 29 October – SNCF Train Station, 08:00–18:00
• 12 November & 6 December – Fontvieille Shopping Gallery, 09:00–18:00

All proceeds will directly support the association’s work with vulnerable children.  

Collaboration with Partners and Brands

This 21st edition is made possible through the support of:

• EFG Private Banking, the official partner dedicated to this meaningful cause.
• Smiley World Limited, creator of the famous yellow smiley noses designed exclusively for Les Enfants de Frankie.  

A Social Media Challenge for 2025

This year, the association launches a new interactive campaign: the #FrankieMonaco movement. Supporters are encouraged to post a photo or video wearing a red nose and share it across social media — spreading smiles well beyond Monaco.

The photo with the most engagement will win an exclusive surprise from Frankie, the association’s beloved clown mascot.  

A Gesture of Kindness with Lasting Impact

Wearing a red nose is more than a playful tradition — it is a simple act that helps bring joy, comfort, and hope to thousands of children in need. This year’s collector’s edition offers an opportunity to celebrate 21 years of compassion while supporting a cause that continues to transform lives.
