The Yacht Pass and Berth applications for Cannes Lions 2018

Each year, more than 4000 companies come to the event so it's vitally important to secure your Cannes Lions yacht charter well in advance as demand is high. Berth applications for Cannes Lions 2018 open on 18th December 2017 and they close in early March 2018.

The only way to ensure a yacht berth during Cannes Lions 2018 in the Vieux Port is by purchasing the 'Yacht Pass' through the event organisers. Yacht Passes are very limited due to capacity at the harbour, so we strongly recommend that you rent a yacht for Cannes Lions as soon as possible so our charter brokers can access the premium mooring positions and available yachts.

The Yacht Pass costs €25,000 excluding VAT and includes five complete Cannes Lions 2018 passes, so you can be assured that your charter yacht is moored in a prime position in the Vieux Port adjacent to the Palais venue.
