In celebration of ten years of partnership with McLaren, Johnnie Walker Blue Label welcomed icons from the worlds of film, music and F1 to Symphony in Blue, Monaco – an experiential spectacular that transported guests including Eva Longoria, Jenson Button and rugby star Chris Robshaw into a universe of flavour, craftsmanship and dramatic storytelling. 

Hosted inside one of Monaco’s most revered buildings, the Ermanno Palace, Symphony in Blue kicked off a long weekend of glamour, style and sophistication. Just sixty guests from around the globe were invited to Friday’s intimate Symphony in Blue experience, which showcased how imagery, sound, light and the tactile environment can influence the perception and taste of a whisky hailing from the four corners of Scotland.  Monaco resident and former Formula 1 World Champion, Mika Häkkinen, joined the celebration raising a glass to the unique partnership forged over the past decade.

Jenson Button said: “Living here I understand the unique character of Monaco and what makes it so glamorous, which is why Symphony in Blue, is the perfect match for this Grand Prix. It’s the pinnacle race of the season and the perfect way to celebrate our historic 10 year partnership.”
