Venues in Cannes for MIPIM 2027: 5 Side Event Addresses

✨ MIPIM 2027: the best addresses are booking now

From 15 to 19 March 2027, MIPIM brings the global property industry back to the Palais des Festivals. Investors, developers, architects, city leaders: for one week, the whole market passes through Cannes. And plenty of the real business happens away from the stands.

Breakfast, private meetings, a panel, a client dinner, a big night out: every side event needs its own kind of venue in Cannes. During MIPIM week, the addresses close to the Palais go months in advance. Here are five venues, one for each moment of the day.

☕ Business breakfast: a café-restaurant near the Croisette

Central Cannes, 5 minutes' walk from the Palais ¡ up to 60 guests

CafĂŠ-restaurant near the Croisette in Cannes booked exclusively for a MIPIM business breakfast

What the venue offers

A few steps from the Croisette, this cafĂŠ-restaurant can be booked exclusively for your company events. It hosts up to 60 guests, with an outdoor terrace to make the most of the mild March weather. Breakfast, lunch or a client cocktail: the venue fits the time slot, and the Palais des Festivals is a five-minute walk away.

Ideal for

A business breakfast is often the most effective format at MIPIM. Your guests drop by before the stands open, while their heads are still clear, then reach the Palais in minutes. An informal roundtable over coffee, a project presentation, a few conversations in a small group: the venue suits that morning rhythm. And with exclusive use, your guests only meet your guests.

🏙️ VIP meetings: an apartment opposite the Palais

First Croisette residence, opposite the Palais ¡ up to 30 guests

150 m² apartment with terrace opposite the Palais des Festivals in Cannes for VIP meetings

150 m² apartment with terrace opposite the Palais des Festivals in Cannes for VIP meetings

What the venue offers

On the fifth floor of the First Croisette residence, this 150 m² apartment is a one-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals. It has a 15 m² terrace and three bedrooms sleeping six, and hosts up to 30 guests, standing or seated. A lift and private parking round it off, and the train station is six minutes away on foot.

Ideal for

At MIPIM, a lot of decisions get made well away from the noise of the aisles. This apartment works as a VIP base for your delegation: part of the team stays there, investor meetings run back to back in the living room, and a 30-person cocktail closes the day on the terrace. All one minute from your stand.

🎤 Panel and networking cocktail: The Gallery

CarrÊ d'Or, 150 m from the Croisette ¡ up to 65 guests

The Gallery, a 140 m² event venue in the CarrÊ d'Or in Cannes for a panel and networking cocktail

What the venue offers

Fully refurbished, The Gallery offers 140 m² in the CarrÊ d'Or, 500 m from the Palais and 550 m from the station. It is split into complementary rooms: a large back room with a designer bar and catering area (30 standing, 20 seated), a bright reception room at the front (same capacity) and, on the lower level, a private workspace for 10. A service entrance keeps logistics smooth on the day.

Ideal for

A panel followed by a networking cocktail is the signature MIPIM format. Here, every room has a job: the roundtable at the front, drinks around the bar, quieter conversations downstairs. Guests move from one moment to the next without ever leaving the venue.

🍽️ Client dinner: a restaurant facing the Palais

Between the Palais, the Croisette and the Old Port ¡ up to 280 guests

Restaurant with a large terrace facing the Palais des Festivals in Cannes for a MIPIM client dinner

Restaurant with a large terrace facing the Palais des Festivals in Cannes for a MIPIM client dinner

What the venue offers

This elegant restaurant sits a short walk from the Palais des Festivals, the Croisette and the Old Port. It has two dining rooms seating 30 each, on the ground floor and upstairs, plus a large 150 m² terrace with high visibility. In total, it holds up to 280 standing or 210 seated. Catering is in-house, with a bar, a screen and air conditioning.

Ideal for

The client dinner is still one of the highlights of the week. For a leadership dinner, a single room is enough and keeps things private. For a wider reception, the terrace and both rooms fit your whole network. After a day at the Palais, your guests only have to cross the street.

🌊 The big night: a private beach on the Croisette

La Croisette, opposite the Carlton ¡ up to 500 guests

What the venue offers

A historic Croisette address, this private beach faces the Carlton hotel. It now has a confident South American identity, drawing on Colombian, Mexican and Argentinian cultures, with a kitchen that blends French technique and Colombian flavours. Sound and lighting are already installed, and the venue hosts up to 500 guests.

Ideal for

The MIPIM party is the one everyone talks about in the aisles the next morning. Feet in the sand, facing the Bay of Cannes, with a warm and festive atmosphere: the kind of evening your partners remember. With sound and lighting already on site, production stays simple, even for several hundred guests.
