SUMMARY:Cannes International Fireworks Festival: Now on 26 August 2026
DESCRIPTION:From the red-hued mountains of the Estérel to the tip of the Croisette\, the Bay of Cannes provides an exceptional natural setting for world-class events. Inspired by the beauty of its coastline and its international prestige\, the City of Cannes first launched its International Fireworks Festival at the height of the 1967 summer season. \nFrom its very first edition\, the renowned Ruggieri company\, widely regarded as masters of the art of fireworks\, worked closely with the Cannes to create a true international competition. Each participating pyrotechnic team was invited to present a themed performance. A spectacular fireworks display choreographed to music\, launched from barges anchored offshore and carefully synchronized to tell a chosen story. \nFor the first time\, fireworks evolved beyond a simple succession of rockets and explosions to become a fully staged artistic performance. Captivating both residents and visitors alike\, the event quickly established Cannes as a pioneer in the art of pyro-musical shows\, a reputation it continues to uphold today. \nSince 1998\, the Cannes International Fireworks Festival has once again stood alongside the Montreal Festival as one of the world’s foremost celebrations of pyrotechnic artistry. Today\, industry professionals\, connoisseurs and spectators from across the globe gather in Cannes to witness increasingly innovative and technically dazzling performances. \nStaged across a 500-metre seafront in the breathtaking Bay of Cannes\, each display unfolds on a truly spectacular scale. The lights of the fireworks reflect across the Mediterranean\, and combine with an immersive musical soundtrack.  The night sky transforms into a succession of mesmerizing scenes\, where light\, sound and storytelling merge into a captivating sensory experience. \nEach year a rigorous selection process identifies just five or six of the world’s most accomplished pyrotechnic companies from a large number of international applicants. Invited to compete in Cannes\, they vie for one of the most coveted distinctions in the world of fireworks. \nInternational Fireworks Festival Programme\n\n4 July at 10pm Serbia\n14 July at 11pm Poland\n22 July at 10pm China\n4 August at 10pm France\n15 August at 10pm Finland\n24 August at 10pm Czech Republic (out of competition) – Cannes fireworks postponed to 26 August\n\nINSIDER TIP: On the nights the fireworks festival takes place\, the Parking du Palais will be closed from 8pm.

SUMMARY:Cannes Film Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:The world’s most famous film festival – Festival de Cannes – will be taking place on the French Riviera from Tuesday 12 May to Saturday 23 May 2026.  \nThe Côte d’Azur beach resort town of Cannes is transformed into a city of cinema for 11 days\, as it has been for nearly eight decades. This year is the 79th edition. \nThe Cannes Film Festival is more than just a film festival — it’s a cultural institution with a dazzling showcase of cinematic delights\, fabulous fashions and luxury yachts that cruise into port to host parties and meetings. \nThis year the iconic Palais des Festivals et des Congrès will announce its lineup of world premieres on Thursday 9 April. (One of last year’s special screenings was Tom Cruise’s final Mission Impossible). Festival goers will be able to watch films from both established auteurs and rising talent\, entered In and Out of Competition. Films from across the globe will be competing for the coveted Palme d’Or\, which is selected from the festival’s Jury. UPDATE: The 2026 Official Selection for the Cannes Film Festival has been announced. \nBeyond the official selection\, the festival’s famed Marché du Film (market place for film) will welcome industry insiders from over 100 countries — a reminder that Cannes is not just about art\, but also serious business. \nIf you don’t have a ticket for the festival or the market\, you can still stroll the Croisette to catch a glimpse of the stars\, or just watch the passersby and soak up the atmosphere. There’s always something going on from street artists to film promos. \nFor those lucky enough to be in town\, the buzz extends far beyond the screenings. Private soirées in hillside villas\, rooftop cocktails\, and brand takeovers of legendary hotels like the Carlton and Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc make Cannes the ultimate Riviera rendezvous. \nP.S. For festival goers from abroad who usually extend their visit to attend the Monaco Grand Prix\, which traditionally takes place on the Sunday after the film festival’s closing ceremony\, this year the F1 race will be taking place in early June instead.

SUMMARY:Fête de la Musique (World Music Day) - French Music Festival\, 21 June
DESCRIPTION:Every year on June 21st\, the day of the summer solstice\, something special happens in France. As the sun starts to go down in the sky\, the streets begin to fill up with music. It’s the Fête de la Musique\, and whether you’re in a tiny village or a bustling city on the Côte d’Azur\, you’re likely to hear everything from jazz and rock to rap\, hip hop and classical. \nHistory of the Fête de la Musique\nThe world owes a huge debt of gratitude to two men who were instrumental in creating this event in 1982. The first is Maurice Fleuret\, a composer who was Director of Music and Dance at the Ministry of Culture from 1981-1986. The second is Jack Lang\, then Minister of Culture\, who suggested they work together. The idea of a popular music festival was born from the realization that paid concerts were often reserved for the elite few. And that the thrill that comes from playing and listening to live music should be available to everyone. Today World Music Day takes place in over 120 countries. \nFrench Streets Come Alive with Music\nThe joy lies in the fact that anyone can play. Whether you’re a local\, a tourist\, a child\, or a professional musician\, it really doesn’t matter. It’s all about celebrating music. People set up in village squares\, on street corners\, in cafés\, and even in front of shops. Some shows are planned\, others just pop up. It’s a family friendly event and people sometimes just stroll around close to their neighbourhood. And then wander from one live performance to the next. \nIt’s fun\, it’s (mostly) free\, and the music often continues until very late into the night. While 21 June is the official date for the Fête de la Musique\, in some cities\, like Nice and Cannes\, the festival runs from 20-22 June 2025. So make sure you check the programmes and the venues near where you live. \nIf you haven’t yet experienced the Fête de la Musique\, please do yourself a favour and be part of the celebration. It’s a really magical start to summer on the French Riviera. \nFor more information on the free concerts in your area\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Carros Strawberry Festival
DESCRIPTION:If\, like my daughter\, you love to eat strawberries by the punnet\, head to Carros for the Strawberry Festival at the end of April. \nStrawberries from Carros are known for their super sweet taste. They are grown in the region of Carros behind Nice on the Côte d’Azur. You will recognize them by their unique flavour and juicy texture. The first harvest takes place between March and June so now is the best time to enjoy them. \nAccording to Christophe Ferraro\, strawberry producer in Carros: \n“What makes the difference is the sunshine. In Carros the climate is perfect for strawberries. This allows us to have two seasons\, the first one from March to June and the second from June until the first frost.” \nThere will be many family-friendly activities: face painting\, gardening\, bug discovery and fun challenges. You will also find a petting farm\, merry-go-rounds and of course\, strawberry tasting galore.
