GL EVENTS AT THE 2025 CANNES FILM FESTIVAL: A COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT FOR AN INTERNATIONAL EVENT

Once again this year, GL events supported the Cannes Film Festival by handling the design, installation, decoration, and fit-out of several key areas. This large-scale project showcases the Group’s ability to bring together its diverse expertise for one of the world’s most high-profile cultural events.

TAILOR-MADE INSTALLATIONS DESIGNED FOR EVERY USE

In Cannes, the GL events Live teams worked on a wide variety of spaces, from building temporary structures to interior layout:

- Palais des Festivals: Red carpet, Café des Palmes, press area, dressing rooms, complete fit-out including structures, photographer platforms, wood partitions with fabric cladding, velums, custom-made furniture (bars, bookshelves), audiovisual solutions, furniture supply, and flooring.
- Agnès Varda Screening Room: A 600 m², 7.5 m high 3D structure housing a projection room, with acoustic treatment, seating, and integrated technical equipment.
- Marché du Film: General installation of the rade fair, custom-built stands, signage decoration, furniture supply, ...
- Village International: Layout under temporary structures (pavilions, stands, innovation village, ...).

A COMPLETE AND COORDINATED OFFERING

Across the entire setup, GL events provided:

- The installation of temporary structures (3D frameworks, curved structures, garden tents, podiums, etc.).
- Interior fittings (partitioning and decoration, scenic elements, signage, furniture, flooring).
- Technical equipment (sound, lighting, electricity, air conditioning).
- Event signage (totems, signs, banners, arches).

This integrated approach ensures the consistency and responsiveness required in a logistically demanding environment.
