The old saying is true: life in Cannes is truly better – especially when you’re attending the annual film festival, the Festival de Cannes, via a charter yacht. The Cannes Film Festival, officially known as the Festival de Cannes, is an annual celebration of cinematic excellence held in the picturesque city of Cannes. The 78th edition, set to run from May 13 to 24, 2025, sees the city of Cannes transformed into a playground of cinematography for filmmakers, actors, and cinephiles worldwide. Established in 1946, the Cannes Film Festival has evolved into one of the most highly esteemed events in the film industry.
Standing out for its commitment to showcasing a diverse array of films, from mainstream blockbusters to independent and international cinema, the event provides a platform for both established and emerging talents. The festival’s esteemed Palme d’Or award is among the highest honors a filmmaker can receive. The event’s primary venue, the Palais des Festivals, hosts film premieres, red-carpet events, and award ceremonies, making it the focal point of this illustrious gathering. Given its proximity to the Vieux Port, chartering a yacht during the festival offers a unique experience and viewpoint of the event.
