THE ELECTRONIC BEACHES: A FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE AND SOME MAJOR NEW FEATURES

Cannes is transformed into an ephemeral dancefloor!

The Rotonde at the Palais des Festivals has been transformed into an ‘Unexplored Club’, an ephemeral dancefloor with a capacity of 3,000, complete with a 360° stage and futuristic decorations, thanks to the Sheper Crew and What’s Up collectives.

To honour its status as France’s biggest beach party, the Festival des Plages Electroniques offered beach-goers an afternoon of aquatic fun with the Red Bull Open Water Party.

A stage on the water, 600 buoys distributed free of charge, a crazy DJ set by Nicolas Monier, 28-degree sea temperature, blazing sun…
