About Cannes

Cannes is located near Nice on the Côte d'Azur in the Alpes-Maritimes department. The Cannes Film Festival is held every May in Cannes, where Cannes is transformed into a giant film set, as the cream of the film industry gathers on the red carpet of the Palais des Festivals. The Hotel Carlton's manicured lawns fizz with the sound of champagne corks, and the Old Town's backstreet bars buzz with Hollywood gossip.
