Cannes Film Festival
What we do for you
The Cannes Film Festival brings film crews, Marché du Film buyers and party guests to Cannes. For twelve days, the town lives to the rhythm of screenings and red-carpet climbs at the Palais des Festivals. Your Cannes Film Festival chauffeur looks after your Nice Airport transfer, then your journeys by day and by night.
- 01
Red carpet night
During screenings, access in front of the Palais is regulated and reserved for ticket holders. The rest of the Croisette is closed, but we hold the accreditations to get through. Give us your screening time and the access point shown on your invitation, and we leave with time to spare.
- 02
After the screening
The car cannot wait for you at the foot of the 24 steps. Before the screening, we agree with you on a meeting point away from the crowds. The chauffeur is there as you come out, then drives you to dinner or on to the next party.
- 03
Staying outside Cannes
If you are sleeping on the Cap d'Antibes, in Mougins or further away, we do the round trip every day. Mougins is about twenty minutes from the town, and Antibes half an hour. You choose your return time, even very late, and the chauffeur comes back for you.
- 04
A car for the whole Festival
For a film crew, a distributor or a brand, a chauffeur at your disposal can be booked by the hour or by the day. You keep them for one evening or the whole Festival, as your programme requires. See also our major events for the rest of the season.
Tailor-made
A group or a special request?
Several vehicles, guests to look after, a programme over several days: tell us what you need and we will prepare a tailor-made quote.

Your questions
Frequently asked questions
What are the dates of the Cannes Film Festival 2027?
Tuesday 11 to Saturday 22 May 2027, at the Palais des Festivals, as confirmed by the Festival and the Palais. It will be the 80th edition. The opening takes place on the first evening, the closing on the last, and the official selection is revealed in the spring.
Do your prices from Nice Airport go up during the Festival?
No, they stay the same. Our private driver links Nice Airport to the centre of Cannes in about 40 minutes, from €120 in an E-Class. Only our availability shrinks, so book early.
Where does the chauffeur drop me off and wait for me?
They drop you as close as possible, depending on your ticket and our accreditations, and the last few metres are sometimes on foot. They then wait nearby, outside the closed streets, and meet you at the spot you agreed with them.
Can you wait for me during the screening?
Yes, with a chauffeur at your disposal. The chauffeur stays nearby, joins you as you come out and takes you to the party. It is the simplest option when a dinner follows the screening. The price is by the hour: €80 an hour in an E-Class, €100 an hour in a V-Class, €120 an hour in an S-Class (4 h minimum), with 25 km included per hour.
Do you collect guests from Nice Airport or Cannes-Mandelieu?
Yes, from both. We meet them in the arrivals hall at Nice, or at the business aviation terminal at Cannes-Mandelieu. Give us the guest's name, flight and hotel, and we drive them there.
I am coming for the Marché du Film, can you take me to my meetings?
Yes. Send us your times and addresses, and the chauffeur links up your meetings for the day. When streets are closed, they drop you as close as possible. The invoice can be in your company's name.
