Cannes Film Festival 2026

Every year, the Festival de Cannes transforms Cannes into the world capital of cinema and attracts media attention from around the globe.

For nearly two weeks, actors, directors, producers, journalists and film lovers gather on the Croisette to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the festival. Between red carpet events, film screenings, interviews and private parties, the city comes alive from morning until late at night.

The Cannes Film Festival is famous for its glamour, celebrities and memorable moments, but also for the discovery of new international talents and films. For more than 70 years, this prestigious event has celebrated cinema from around the world while helping launch new directors and productions every year.

Around the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès de Cannes, the atmosphere is especially lively. The Croisette, beaches, restaurants and shopping streets become the setting for one of the most iconic events on the French Riviera.

Located just a few minutes’ walk from the Palais des Festivals and the Croisette, the Hotel Alnea Cannes is ideally situated to enjoy the atmosphere of the Cannes Film Festival while discovering Cannes on foot.

The Cannes Film Festival 2026 will take place from May 12 to May 23, 2026.
