Don't be mistaken, it's not just the Cannes Film Festival that takes over the Croisette when the sun comes out to play.

A festival that ticks all the boxes
For the past few years, the Plages Électroniques has really aimed to evolve by taking into account the major challenges of our time. To achieve this, the festival has developed a charter to affirm its environmental commitments, and has also implemented safe spaces and the Planet Beaches area, bringing together associations to discuss, exchange, raise awareness, and present their actions.

In the meantime, we’ll leave you with a little recap of the 2024 edition, just to show you a bit of what you might miss if you don’t go.
