As an official partner of the 78th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, Air France is reopening a private beach on the Croisette, a tradition the airline has done in the past years in collaboration with the festival. The airline has brought one-tonne piece of plane to the sands of Cannes to replicate the La Première luxury experience.
The private beach features a restaurant, an outdoor lounge, a bar and sunbeds with direct access to the sea. At the heart of the beach, festival goers will also be able to take an exclusive look at a mock-up of the new La Premiere suite, on display in a custom-made showcase on sand.
Located next to the Hotel Martinez beach in Cannes, the Air France beach features a restaurant with seating capacity for close to 30 guests, outdoor lounge and a bar, showcasing the French art of dining along with its curated La Première wine and champagne list.
The Air France beach is open from 10:00 to 18:00 local time. Reservation is required. Lunch menu, including beverages, start from EUR 95.00. Sunbed hire from EUR 60.00 Air France has been an official partner of the Cannes Film Festival for 45 years. Throughout its history, Air France has transported film crews, assisted with productions and continuously supports these films by showing them onboard flights.
On May 12 and 25, 2025, Air France will operate two special flights providing direct service using the Airbus A350 between Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Nice Cote d’Azur Airport (NCE). Air France said these flights are in response to strong demand from customers on the US West Coast who want to enjoy the French Riviera and the festival, as well as the Monaco F1 Grand Prix.
The private beach lounge experience is open from May 13 to May 24, 2025.
