Cannes
Cannes is the Riviera's event economy in concentrated form: the film festival, MIPIM, Cannes Lions and a year-round congress calendar that fills five-star palaces at rates few cities match. It is also a destination drawing lines against excess — moving to restrict the largest cruise ships in the latest pushback against overtourism on the Côte d'Azur. On this page you'll find Cannes news covering festival and congress tourism, cruise policy, luxury hotel investment, visitor trends and the business of the Riviera's most commercial address.
