About the event

The Cannes Film Festival is the most prestigious event in world cinema, held each May on the French Riviera. Its top prize, the Palme d'Or, can define a director's career, and the red carpet at the Palais des Festivals is the film world's most famous. Cannes is invitation-only and fiercely selective.

Ticket availability and entry conditions should be confirmed through the organizer before purchase.
