Congresses in Cannes are a must

View of The Palais des Festivals à Cannes

Throughout the year, the city of Cannes hosts some of the world's largest conventions and cultural events such as ILTM, the Cannes Film Festival, MIPIM, Cannes Lions, Tax Free, and many more. Key players from all over the world come to the South of France to promote their industries while networking under the glorious sun of the French Riviera.

Bringing together professionals from all sectors from film to fashion, yachts to real estate, Cannes is a prime location for events. Large conventions are the perfect opportunity to organize private events such as cocktail parties or dinners to promote your brand and strengthen your network.
