Private parties & VIP events during the Cannes Film Festival

Reach the evenings that matter when access is possible — or create your own, in a villa, on a private beach or aboard a yacht, in complete discretion.

Your Cannes evenings, composed to measure

From tables at the great charity galas to an evening we produce entirely for you, these are the five registers we orchestrate during the fortnight — always subject to availability and eligibility.

01

Charity galas — the amfAR example

The great charity evenings are the best-known face of Cannes nightlife — foremost among them the amfAR gala, held at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc (named for illustration). The foundation sells its own tables, for the benefit of AIDS research: we sell none and promise none. If you have taken your table with the foundation, we handle everything else: evening dress, chauffeur or tender transfer to the Cap d'Antibes, and a secure return at any hour. Our amfAR Gala Cannes page sets it out.

02

Maison, studio and brand parties

Every edition brings a flowering of luxury-house dinners, studio parties and brand launches, from palace suites to pop-up beaches along the Croisette. These invitations are personal, non-transferable and never sold: we work through partners and private invitations where possible, and never promise access. Depending on your profile and the edition's calendar, we identify the evenings worth pursuing, position your request with the right people, and tell you frankly what is realistic — and what is not.

03

Your own private-villa evening

Rather than waiting for an invitation, many of our clients choose to host. We secure a villa in the hills — Super-Cannes, La Californie or the Cap d'Antibes — and produce the entire evening: creative direction and staging, private chef and brigade, DJ or musicians, talent and performances, a dedicated cellar and white-glove service. The property is quoted on request, according to its address, capacity and the length of the let; the production of the evening itself is shaped to the ambition of the format.

04

Private beach or reception aboard a yacht

The Croisette itself can become your drawing room: we privatise a beach club for a dinner on the sand or a cocktail facing the bay. On the water, a reception aboard a yacht at anchor off the Croisette — or berthed at the Vieux Port or Port Canto, moorings in heavy demand during the festival — offers the fortnight's most coveted setting. The charter is quoted on request according to the yacht's size, excluding event production; our Cannes Film Festival yacht page sets out the options.

05

Discretion & security

A successful Cannes party is one nobody talks about. We frame every reception with a complete protocol: close protection and access control, vetted guest lists, NDAs signed by all staff — chef, service, performers, drivers —, phone management if you wish, and discreet choreography of arrivals and departures. Your name appears nowhere, suppliers do not comment, and the evening remains what it should be: private.

Why TGZ

Why entrust your Cannes evenings to TGZ

An evening during the festival brings together a dozen trades — venue, production, chef, performers, security, transport — in a town where everything is booked months ahead. Our craft is making them hold together: a single point of contact sources the venue, composes the programme, directs the suppliers and choreographs every arrival. You approve the intentions; we absorb the logistics, through to the following morning.

TGZ Conciergerie is independent: we are affiliated neither with the Festival de Cannes, nor the AFFIF, nor the Palais des Festivals, and hold no official status. Invitations to official, maison or studio parties are personal and non-transferable: we pursue them through partners and legitimate private channels where possible, and never guarantee access. That candour is the condition of trust — and every project is quoted on request, conditions confirmed before any commitment.

Cannes rewards anticipation: villas, private beaches and berths are secured well ahead of May 2027, and gala applications are prepared months before the fortnight. To frame your project, our guide How much does a VIP Cannes Film Festival cost explains what shapes each element, our guide Where to stay during the Cannes Film Festival compares palaces and villas, and our Cannes Film Festival dress code guide prepares your evening wardrobe. For the rest of the fortnight, our Cannes Film Festival VIP page orchestrates the stay as a whole.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No — and no one seriously can: these invitations are personal, non-transferable and never sold. We work through partners and private invitations where possible, positioning your request with the right people, without firm promises. We tell you upfront what is realistic for your profile — and where access is not achievable, we compose a private alternative of equivalent standing.

The amfAR gala, held at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc (named for illustration), is a charity evening organised by the foundation, which sells its own tables for the benefit of research. TGZ sells none and promises none: we point you towards the foundation and, if your table is taken with it, we orchestrate everything else — dress, chauffeur or tender, security. Our amfAR Gala Cannes page sets it out.

It depends on the format: the venue — villa, private beach or yacht — according to its address, capacity and duration, the number of guests, then the production of the evening — chef, performers, staging, security. Tables at the major charity galas follow the conditions set by the organisers. Every project receives a detailed quotation, conditions confirmed before any commitment; our guide How much does a VIP Cannes Film Festival cost explains what shapes each element.

As early as possible. Hillside villas, private Croisette beaches and berths at the Vieux Port and Port Canto are reserved well ahead of the festival, and gala applications are assembled months before May 2027. Three to six months' lead time allows an unhurried composition; on shorter notice we can still act, subject to availability, with an adjusted scope.

By contract and by method: NDAs signed by all staff — chef, service, performers, drivers, security —, vetted guest lists, access control, close protection where needed, phone management on request and choreographed arrivals to avoid exposure. No supplier comments on the evening, and your name appears on no visible document. Discretion is not an option at our receptions: it is the frame.

It varies with the register: the great galas require formal evening dress — black tie, evening gown — while a villa or on-board reception is usually elegant summer attire, specified by the host. We confirm the exact code for each event and can arrange a stylist, fittings and alterations in Cannes. Our Cannes Film Festival dress code guide details the fortnight's conventions, from the red carpet to the beaches.
