Introduction

Cannes is synonymous with world-class events from the Film Festival to Lions, MIPIM, and private brand launches. As demand for premium hospitality rises, megayachts have become the preferred base for executives, brands, and VIP guests seeking privacy, space, and an elevated presence directly in the harbor.


Why Events in Cannes Drive Megayacht Demand

Prime waterfront availability is limited during major events. Hotels sell out months in advance, and beach venues become crowded. A megayacht offers the rare advantage of a private, controlled space directly overlooking the Croisette, with instant access to every venue.


What Megayachts Offer That Hotels Can’t

Megayachts deliver a seamless blend of luxury, comfort, and functionality:

• Expansive decks for networking and cocktail events

• Private meeting spaces with full privacy

• Onboard chefs and service teams

• Tenders for seamless transfers

• Balcony-level views of the Croisette and Palais des Festivals


For corporate groups, creative agencies, or VIP delegations, these features turn a yacht into both a headquarters and a retreat.

Cannes continues to evolve as a global event hub, and megayachts play a central role in hosting private functions, meetings, and luxury hospitality.
