What kind of corporate events do you produce in Cannes?

Executive summits and leadership offsites, client and prospect dinners, advisory boards, festival-week hospitality programs during Cannes Lions and MIPIM, yacht and villa receptions, awards nights, and partner events along the Croisette.

Do you run executive hospitality during Cannes Lions?

Yes - we produced OUTFRONT Media's executive hospitality program aboard Yacht Hana during Cannes Lions 2026. We handle the yacht or venue, berthing and permits, catering and service, guest lists, talent, and the meeting program around it, so your executives host instead of troubleshoot.

What does a corporate or executive event in Cannes cost?

It depends on headcount, venue, production level, and timing - festival weeks carry premiums on berths, beaches, and villas, while the rest of the year is far more flexible. A 30-person executive dinner and a week-long hospitality program are very different numbers. We scope the agenda and production plan first, then come back with a costed plan before anything is committed.

Which Cannes venues do you use for executive programs?

Private yachts in the Vieux Port and Port Canto, villas in Le Suquet and the hills, hotel ballrooms and rooftops along the Croisette, beach clubs for evening programs, and estate properties inland for multi-day offsites away from the festival crowds.

Can you handle attendee logistics and communications?

Yes - registration and RSVP, hotel blocks (which book out early for festival weeks), ground and boat transport, guest communications and concierge, dietary and accessibility needs, gifting, and onsite check-in are all part of the scope when you want them.

How far in advance should we book?

For Cannes Lions or MIPIM, six to twelve months - the best berths, beaches, and hotels go early. Off-season executive dinners and offsites can move in eight to twelve weeks. Tell us the date and we'll be honest about what's achievable.

How do you measure a corporate event?

We agree the metrics up front: attendance and attendance quality, meetings held and pipeline signals from client events, content produced, satisfaction scores, and follow-through after the event. Reporting is part of the scope.
