Once again, MonacoPhil 2015 is under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II.
The continued presence of H.S.H. Prince Albert II has become a very pleasant and important tradition. The inauguration of the exhibition is always included on his agenda and we would like to thank him for honouring us in this way. Furthermore, H.S.H. Prince Albert II is the guest of honour at the gala dinner held to mark this occasion.
This year, three exhibitions will be organised and open to the public:
– One exhibition will feature 100 world rarities from 100 internationally renowned collections, including the Philatelic Collection of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, as well as rarities from the collections of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, 10 national postal museums and members of the Club de Monte-Carlo.
-A Competitive Exhibition devoted to Polar Philately, in commemoration of the centenary of the last expedition organized by Prince Albert I of Monaco.
-And a section will be reserved for the Russian Polar Philately, because MonacoPhil 2015 is an official partner of “2015, The Year of Russia in Monaco”.
A commercial section will be present with 80 stands operated by postal administrations and well-known international stamp dealers.
We look forward to seeing as many philatelists and visitors as possible. Please do come and visit MonacoPhil 2015!

Entry forms are accepted from:

Newsletter no. 3 11 December 2014
Application for participation: The entry form is now on-line. Prospective exhibitors are requested to visit hps.gr/notos2015/entry-form/ and submit their application directly to the Organizing Committee. Once submitted, a copy of the completed entry form is e-mailed back to the exhibitor and the National Commissioner (where applicable).
Eligibility for participation:
♦ Exhibitors of the 21 invited NOTOS countries with any kind of exhibit.
♦ Exhibitors outside NOTOS with exhibits related to the European South.
♦ Philatelic Literature exhibitors worldwide with no restriction on the subject.
Expected participation: Eighteen of the twenty-one invited countries have accepted the invitation to participate in NOTOS 2015 and have already appointed a National Commissioner. Hopefully the remaining three will soon follow. Meanwhile, from the messages received, it seems that the exhibition is quite appealing to many collectors outside NOTOS as well.
Prelude to the international exhibition: From 4 to 10 November, in the same exhibition hall, a non-competitive exhibition will take place, namely “NOTOS 2015 Collectables”, which will include a variety of other collectables alongside the philatelic exhibits. Details are uploaded in Greek only on hps.gr/notos2015/el/, where prospective exhibitors can find the relative Guidelines and the Entry Form for participation.
Schedule of events: The principle features of the day-to-day exhibition program have been uploaded on hps.gr/notos2015/events-schedule/. The schedule will be further updated with details as they become available. Readers will observe that the rather unfriendly “Critique” was renamed to “Happy hour at the frames”, a small contribution for a pleasant starting point to this very important exhibition feature.
They said for NOTOS 2015:
“…This is a new style, no frills exhibition…” (ABPS Exhibitions News)
“…The fees per frame are very modest…” (AIJP News)
“…Literature exhibitors will be pleased. They need to submit one copy only of their publications…” (APHV, The Association of German stamp dealers)
