The service in the field
Key service points
The Cannes Yachting Festival from a chauffeur's seat
In mid-September, Cannes becomes the world showcase for in-water yachting — an audience of owners, brokers and UHNW across two ports.
Every September, the Cannes Yachting Festival turns the bay into Europe's largest in-water boat show. The exhibition unfolds across two ports — the Vieux Port with its large-yacht area, and Port Canto dedicated to sailing — linked by the Croisette. A chauffeur who knows Cannes shuttles between the two sites without forcing you to hunt for parking.
Arrivals concentrate at Nice Côte d'Azur airport over just a few days. Flight tracking, welcome and a direct link to the Jetée Albert Édouard or Port Canto absorb the week's peak and drop you as close as possible to your meetings.
The show chains yacht viewings, sea trials, shipyard meetings and onboard dinners. Hourly hire keeps the same chauffeur for owners and brokers alike, with the discretion a UHNW clientele expects and late-night returns after receptions.
