Twelve days on the Croisette

The Cannes Film Festival 2027 takes place from Tuesday 11 - Saturday 22 May 2027 on the French Riviera. The world's most glamorous film festival attracts the global elite of cinema, fashion and entertainment every May, and for those seeking an extraordinary experience beyond the screen, exclusive VIP hospitality and red carpet access is available through DN Global.

Of everything in this vertical, Cannes offers the broadest range of genuine access. It is a twelve-day festival rather than a single evening, which means there are considerably more routes in than at a one-night ceremony.

DN Global is not an official partner of the Festival de Cannes. Red carpet and ceremony access is arranged through official hospitality and accreditation programmes rather than held by us directly. The galas, dinners and private parties named on this page are run by third parties with no relationship to DN Global, and access to each is at the organiser's discretion. What is genuinely achievable for a given year is confirmed to you in writing before you commit to anything.

The experiences

What is available at Cannes 2027

The festival runs twelve days, and the events worth attending are spread across all of them.

Opening Ceremony - 11 May

Orchestra and Corbeille seating with red carpet access for the festival's opening night, the most photographed arrival of the twelve days.

Closing Ceremony - 22 May

Red carpet and ceremony attendance for the awarding of the Palme d'Or.

Chopard dinner and party

One of the most exclusive evenings of the festival, hosted by the official partner of the Palme d'Or.

Vanity Fair Cannes party

A fixture of the festival calendar and one of the harder rooms to get into.

amfAR Cannes Gala

The most celebrated charity gala of the festival season, held annually during the festival at Cap d'Antibes.

Private parties and gala dinners

A number of private events run across the festival in Cannes and along the coast towards Antibes. Hosts and formats change year to year, and we will tell you what exists for 2027 rather than what existed previously.

Yacht charter

Private and shared yachts in the Vieux Port and the Bay of Cannes, used as a base across the festival rather than for a single evening.

The occasion

The Cannes experience

Cinema, fashion and the Riviera, compressed into twelve days and about two square kilometres.

Cannes in May is unlike anywhere else in the world. The combination of cinema, fashion, luxury and the French Riviera backdrop creates an atmosphere that cannot really be replicated, and the fact that the whole festival happens within walking distance of itself is a large part of why.

DN Global arranges the complete Cannes experience: the right hotel on or near the Croisette, red carpet arrivals, private yacht access and evening event hospitality. For guests staying several days, the shape of the week matters as much as any single ticket, and that is what your account manager will actually spend time on.

Who it suits

Corporate and private packages

Cannes is one of the most popular corporate entertainment destinations in the world, combining the prestige of the film festival with the natural beauty of the French Riviera. DN Global arranges packages for corporate groups, entertainment industry professionals and private individuals.

Corporate groups

A yacht or villa base with event access built around it works considerably better for a group than individual tickets, and is how most corporate Cannes bookings are actually structured.

Industry professionals

For those working in film, the Marché du Film runs alongside the festival and the week is as much business as spectacle.

Private clients

Couples and small groups building a Riviera trip around two or three festival evenings rather than the full twelve days.

FAQs

Cannes Film Festival 2027 VIP hospitality FAQs

The Cannes Film Festival 2027 runs from Tuesday 11 - Saturday 22 May 2027 on the French Riviera. That is twelve days in total, and unlike a single-evening awards ceremony it gives you real flexibility - the opening and closing weekends carry the biggest events, but there is something worth attending on most nights in between.

Red carpet access is available through official hospitality programmes for the opening and closing ceremonies, and DN Global manages the accreditation and access process on your behalf. It is worth knowing that Cannes enforces a formal dress code on the carpet, strictly - black tie for men, floor-length for women - and we will brief you properly rather than let you find out at the steps.

Yes. Private and shared yacht charters are available throughout the festival period, moored in the Vieux Port or the Bay of Cannes. Yachts are used for private entertaining and as a base across the festival rather than purely for the view, and for a corporate group they often work better than a hotel suite. We can arrange yacht experiences alongside your event access.

The amfAR Cannes Gala is one of the most celebrated charity events in the global entertainment calendar, held annually during the festival and attended by many of the biggest names in film. It is run by amfAR, not by DN Global, and access is at the organiser's discretion. We can approach the authorised channels on your behalf.

The events clients most often ask for by name are the opening and closing ceremonies, the Chopard dinner, the Vanity Fair party, the amfAR Gala and a number of private parties held in Cannes and along the coast towards Antibes. Each is run by a third party with its own approval process, and we will tell you which are realistic for your enquiry before you book flights.

On or near the Croisette if you can, because the walk matters more than you would expect once the festival is running and the roads are closed. DN Global can arrange accommodation from the Croisette hotels through to private villas in the hills behind the town, alongside your event access. Cannes accommodation is committed extremely early - typically a year ahead for the best of it.
