A look back at Monaco's National Day 2016

Monaco's spectacular National Day celebration last year was truly a family affair, with the youngest generation of royals – and a then-pregnant Beatrice Borromeo – stealing the show during the festivities.
Greeting well-wishers from the palace balcony, Princess Charlene held daughter Princess Gabriella while Prince Albert placed a kiss on the head of his heir, son Prince Jacques.
Here, we look back at all the highlights from 2016's celebration.
