The Cannes Film Festival 2025: what you need to know

The Cannes Film Festival 2025 will take place from 13 to 24 May, transforming the city into a hub of cinematic excellence and high-profile social events. The 78th annual festival will see the iconic red carpet rolled out once again at the Palais des Festivals, ready to play host to some of the world’s biggest film stars, while the surrounding area buzzes with exclusive parties, industry gatherings, and brand showcases.

A yacht charter during this period is more than just a luxury escape – it’s a chance for those looking to immerse themselves in the festival to simultaneously enjoy the highest level of comfort and exclusivity. Whether you are a film producer hosting private screenings, a corporate client seeking a unique venue, or a regular charterer wanting to experience Cannes in style, a yacht provides the perfect setting.

Why rent a superyacht during Cannes Film Festival?

Chartering a yacht during the Cannes Film Festival unlocks an array of benefits that go beyond luxury accommodation.

• Prime location & accessibility: With the festival attracting thousands of guests, securing a premium location is essential. A superyacht anchored in the Bay of Cannes or moored in the Vieux Port offers direct access to the festival’s venues while avoiding crowded hotels and traffic.
• Exclusivity & privacy: Hosting private events, meetings, or celebrations aboard a superyacht ensures discretion and exclusivity, away from prying eyes.
• Luxury at its finest: Enjoy world-class cuisine, personalised service, and opulent surroundings with bespoke itineraries tailored to your needs.
• Unmatched networking opportunities: The Cannes Film Festival is not just about films – it is a global networking hotspot. A yacht charter provides a prestigious venue for private receptions, brand activations, and high-profile meetings.
