Town's information

Renowned throughout the world for its film festival and its many congresses, particularly in the fields of arts and communication, Cannes offers the dual interest of being both a real international city and a medium-sized town (70.000 inhabitants). Enjoying the wonderful climate of the Côte d'Azur, the city provides its guests with the ideal setting for a pleasant stay: the Croisette , the beaches, the cafés and their terraces, the Suquet (the old town), the fairs of Provence, the old port, the artisans area,....all within walking distance of each other. Just off the coast, the Lérins Islands bear witness to the city's history as well as the splendor of the trees and plants typical of the Mediterranean area. A flourishing and clean city, Cannes distinguishes itself through its environmental initiatives, which have earned the city the European "pavillon bleu".

All year long, prestigious festivals are open to the public. The Cannes-Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Orchestra performs regularly. The combination of the Ecole Internationale d'Acteurs, the Municipal Conservatory, The Ecole Internationale de Danse (Ms Hightower), its museums, its Multimedia Center, makes Cannes an educational and cultural center par excellence.The city of Cannes provides a particularly wide range of sports. A number of competitions are open to sports enthusiast, and from April to October, Cannes offers its beaches of fine sand.
