Events We Build For in Cannes
The Cannes exhibition calendar is anchored by a concentrated rotation of high-profile international trade events, each with its own venue configuration, stand specification requirements, and move-in logistics. Our project operation is built around this calendar.
MIPIM
MIPIM is one of the largest real estate and property industry trade shows in the world, running annually at the Palais des Festivals in March. The event draws exhibitors from more than 90 countries across real estate development, investment, and urban planning sectors. Stand builds at MIPIM range from compact 9 sqm inline configurations to large-format custom island environments exceeding 200 sqm. We build for multiple exhibitors at MIPIM each year using a structured concurrent project process that keeps individual timelines intact across a compressed shared move-in period.
MIPCOM and MIPJunior
MIPCOM is the global television and digital content market, held at the Palais des Festivals each October alongside MIPJunior. Combined, the two events bring exhibitors across broadcast, streaming, production, and content distribution sectors to the same venue across overlapping move-in windows. Stand builds here require rapid turnaround from brief to installation. We maintain pre-season inventory at our French Riviera facility specifically to support the October event cluster, reducing freight lead times for Cannes-based projects during that period.
Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity
Cannes Lions runs across the Palais des Festivals and the surrounding port area each June. Brand and agency exhibit builds at Lions sit at the intersection of high-specification design and tight physical constraints imposed by the Palais layout and port licensing conditions. We design stands for Lions exhibitors within the venue’s structural limitations and manage the permit requirements that apply to branded installations in the controlled zones around the Palais and the Croisette.
MAPIC
MAPIC is the international retail real estate market, held at the Palais des Festivals each November. Retail property and brand exhibitors at MAPIC require stand environments that balance open networking space with structured meeting areas. We build at MAPIC for developers, retailers, and property investors, applying the same logistics and project management approach used at MIPIM given the two events share the same primary venue and many of the same exhibitor services procedures.
Venues We Cover
Our exhibition stand contractors in Cannes provide venue-specific exhibition stand design, fabrication, and installation support across the Palais des Festivals, Espace Riviera, Port de Cannes, Croisette event zones, and major hotel convention spaces throughout the French Riviera. Each venue operates with different technical regulations, access conditions, installation schedules, and structural requirements, which are integrated into the project planning process from the beginning rather than addressed during on-site setup. Because temporary exhibition structures tend to become dramatically less temporary when they cannot physically fit through the venue access route.
Palais des Festivals et des Congrès
The Palais des Festivals is the primary exhibition and conference venue in Cannes, operating across multiple halls including the Grand Auditorium, Espace Riviera, Hall Méditerranée, and the outdoor terraces. Each hall has distinct ceiling clearances, rigging point locations, power distribution infrastructure, and access routes. We know the current technical specifications across all Palais halls and apply them during stand design rather than discovering constraints during the install. Exhibitor services ordering deadlines, preferred supplier frameworks, and aisle compliance requirements at the Palais are managed by our project team as standard deliverables.
Espace Riviera
The Espace Riviera is an outdoor exhibition area adjacent to the Palais des Festivals used during MIPIM, MAPIC, and other large events when indoor hall capacity is fully committed. Structures here require outdoor-rated engineering, appropriate anchoring to the surface, and weatherproofing suited to the French Riviera’s spring and autumn conditions. We design and produce outdoor stand systems for the Riviera area and manage the permit requirements that apply to temporary structures in this location.
Port de Cannes and Croisette Installations
Several Cannes events extend their exhibition footprint to the port area and Croisette-adjacent zones under event-specific licensing agreements. Branded installations in these areas involve additional permit submissions to local authorities, physical access restrictions that differ from the Palais, and structural requirements for semi-public outdoor environments. We have executed branded and exhibition builds at port-side and Croisette locations and handle the permit and logistics coordination these locations require.
Hotel Convention Spaces
The Carlton, Martinez, Majestic, Barrière, and JW Marriott hotel properties in Cannes all operate convention and meeting event spaces used during the major trade show weeks. Stand and branded environment builds in hotel spaces require adapted logistics, including freight elevator access planning, carpet protection compliance, and coordination with individual hotel operations teams. We manage these requirements on a property-by-property basis rather than applying a standard convention center logistics approach.
Services We Provide in Cannes
Our exhibition stand contractors in Cannes provide custom trade show booth design, fabrication, installation, and logistics support for events at the Palais des Festivals, Espace Riviera, Port de Cannes, and convention venues across the French Riviera. We manage exhibition stand projects for MIPIM, MIPCOM, Cannes Lions, TFWA, MAPIC, and other Cannes trade shows through a structured workflow covering production, graphics, transport, installation, dismantling, and post-event storage. Because exhibition schedules in Cannes operate with very little tolerance for last-minute improvisation disguised as project management.

Our Exhibition Stand Design Portfolio In CANNES
International Logistics and Cross-Border Coordination
Cannes draws exhibitors from across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and Asia. For companies shipping stand materials into France from outside the European Union, this means ATA Carnet documentation, customs declarations, and import procedures that add logistical layers that purely domestic exhibitions do not involve. We manage cross-border freight coordination for international exhibitors as part of our Cannes project scope.
ATA Carnet and Temporary Importation Stand materials shipped into France on a temporary basis for exhibition use can enter under an ATA Carnet, which allows the goods to return to their country of origin without import duty. We advise international clients on the correct documentation process and work with approved freight forwarders to coordinate carnet-compliant shipments into the South of France ahead of each event.
European Union Freight Coordination For exhibitors based within the EU shipping materials to Cannes from other member states, we coordinate with preferred freight partners on intra-EU transport routing, delivery timing against Palais advance warehouse schedules, and return logistics. Local warehousing at our French Riviera facility eliminates the need for pan-European freight on every event cycle for companies that exhibit in Cannes more than once per year.
On-Site Contractor Compliance The Palais des Festivals operates within French labor and health and safety regulations that govern on-site work by external contractors. Our installation crews operate in compliance with these requirements. We carry the appropriate liability insurance, professional certifications, and venue contractor credentials for every event we work at in Cannes.
Stand Configurations We Build for Cannes
| Size | Format | Typical Use | Key Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 sqm | Inline | Compact single-product or service display | Standard inline height at the Palais is 2.5m without a variance; we design within this from the outset |
| 18 sqm | Inline / Corner | Extended display with integrated counter and literature zone | Corner positions allow dual aisle exposure; we design both faces to equal visual standard |
| 36 sqm | Island | 4-way accessible open island with full perimeter presence | Overhead hanging structures require advance structural approval with the Palais; we manage this submission |
| 54 sqm | Island | Multi-zone layout with product display and enclosed meeting room | Ceiling design on enclosed areas must meet Palais fire egress requirements; addressed at design stage |
| 72 sqm+ | Large Island | Major event anchor builds at MIPIM, MIPCOM, MAPIC, and Lions | Engineering review required for elevated elements; full structural package submitted to venue operations |
| Double-Deck | Island | Two-level builds for large-footprint island allocations | Requires certified engineering stamp and venue structural sign-off; both are managed within our project scope |
| Custom | Non-Standard | Port-side, outdoor, Croisette, and hotel-based builds | Engineered to actual site dimensions and surface conditions; quoted individually on a site-specific brief |

Our Build Process for Cannes Projects
Our exhibition stand contractors in Cannes manage custom trade show booth projects through a structured workflow covering exhibition stand design, fabrication, graphics production, freight coordination, installation, and post-show dismantling. From trade show exhibits at the Palais des Festivals to branded environments across Cannes event venues, every stage is planned around venue regulations, delivery schedules, and operational requirements to maintain efficient project execution throughout the exhibition timeline.
Brief, Scope, and Event Mapping
We begin each project with a written brief covering your event name, stand allocation, floor plan dimensions, functional requirements, brand assets, and budget range. For Cannes projects, we also map your project against the specific event’s advance warehouse deadlines, exhibitor services ordering cutoffs, and move-in window timing. These are documented into the project schedule at this stage, not added later when they become urgent.
Design and Client Approval
Our design team delivers a full 3D render and structural floor plan based on the approved brief. We work through revisions until the client provides written sign-off on the final design. Material orders and production do not begin until that approval is confirmed. For international clients working across time zones, design review is managed asynchronously with clear revision cycles and documented response deadlines.
Fabrication and Graphics Production
Structural build, graphics production, and AV component preparation run as parallel production tracks. A milestone schedule is shared with the client at the start of this phase and updated as each stage completes. Running production tracks simultaneously compresses the overall timeline without reducing the quality control applied to each individual component or print output.
Pre-Shipment Assembly and QA
Every stand is fully assembled at our facility before it ships to Cannes. We verify structural alignment, graphic fit, AV function, and lighting output. Any corrections are made at this stage. All components are photographed in their finished state, tagged with a manifest reference, and packed for transport under a documented crate list.
Freight and Customs Coordination
Outbound freight is coordinated against the delivery window set by the Palais or the specific event’s appointed logistics handler. For international shipments, ATA Carnet and customs documentation are prepared and submitted before the freight departs. We track freight status and confirm arrival at the advance warehouse or direct-to-show delivery point.
Installation, Event Support, and Breakdown
Our installation crew operates within the confirmed move-in window. The stand is installed to the approved design, with AV and lighting tested and signed off before the event opens. We remain on-call during the event period and manage dismantling, crate repacking, and outbound freight or local storage return at show close.

Why Choose Us for Cannes
Our Cannes operation manages custom stand design, booth fabrication, logistics coordination, installation, and post-event handling for exhibitors participating in major trade shows at the Palais des Festivals and across the French Riviera. From modular trade show booths for MIPCOM to large custom exhibition stands at MIPIM, Cannes Lions, and TFWA, each project is planned around venue regulations, freight schedules, and event-specific operational requirements to maintain consistent delivery across every stage of the build process. Because exhibition timelines in Cannes generally leave very little room for “we’ll figure it out on-site” as a business strategy.
Single-Source Accountability
Design, fabrication, logistics, installation, and breakdown are contracted under a single agreement with one team. There is no point in the project where responsibility for the stand transfers between a designer, a fabricator, and a separate installation contractor. The project manager assigned at kickoff is the same person accountable for the installation on move-in day at the Palais.
French Riviera Facility
We operate a fabrication and storage facility in the South of France, which eliminates inbound long-haul freight costs for clients based in Europe, compresses production and delivery timelines, and makes short-notice reprints or structural corrections achievable within the event build window. For recurring Cannes exhibitors, local storage between events removes the cost and risk of cross-continental freight on every cycle.
Palais Event Operations Knowledge
MIPIM, MIPCOM, MAPIC, Lions, and TFWA each operate under their own exhibitor services procedures, contractor credential requirements, and move-in logistics protocols within the same venue. We know the specific requirements for each event, apply them during project planning, and manage the corresponding paperwork and venue approvals without transferring that coordination burden to the client.
International Client Experience
A large proportion of Cannes exhibitors are headquartered outside France. We regularly manage projects for clients in the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States, the UAE, and across the Asia-Pacific region. Remote design collaboration, ATA Carnet logistics, and full on-the-ground execution are standard parts of our Cannes project capability, not special arrangements that require additional overhead.
Pre-Shipment Assembly as Standard
Every stand we ship to Cannes has been fully assembled and checked at our facility before it leaves. Discovering a structural or graphics issue during a 4-hour Palais move-in slot is not a recoverable situation. This step is included in every project, not offered as a premium service tier.
Itemized, Documented Quoting
Project quotes separate design, fabrication materials, graphics production, AV components, freight, customs coordination, installation labor, and storage into individual line items. Scope changes are documented and priced before they are executed. There are no bundled cost structures that make it unclear where project budget is being applied.
