Popular spaces for your event on the French Riviera
Terrace rentals in Nice for private or corporate events
Nice features a large selection of terraces for hire—ideal for cocktails, corporate events, conferences, afterworks or birthdays. Many of these outdoor venues come with furniture, sound systems, bar areas, and city or sea views.
Garden rentals for weddings or receptions in Cannes
Renting a garden in Cannes is perfect for a wedding, a secular ceremony, or a cocktail reception. You can privatise a garden with a lawn, marquee, catering zone and lounge area. These venues are in high demand during summer months.
Outdoor areas in villas or estates across the French Riviera
Many villas offer private gardens or terraces for rent. These upscale venues provide a high level of comfort for your guests: swimming pool, scenic views, parking and even on-site accommodation.
Outdoor venues for photo shoots and filming
The Côte d’Azur attracts many creative productions. You can rent a garden, a peaceful terrace, or a natural outdoor setting for a photo shoot, fashion campaign, commercial, or brand video. These locations are chosen for their natural light, charm and accessibility.
Why Rent a Garden or Terrace for Your Event on the French Riviera?
Outdoor venues suited for all types of events
Renting a terrace or garden on the Côte d’Azur is a practical solution for hosting outdoor events: weddings, birthday parties, corporate offsites, team-building days, product launches, photo shoots or private dinners. These outdoor spaces are available for half-day, full-day, or multi-day bookings.
Ideal climate for open-air events
With its mild weather and high number of sunny days, the French Riviera allows you to host outdoor events comfortably from spring to fall. Booking an outdoor venue in the South of France is a popular option to ensure your guests enjoy the event in the best conditions.
A wide range of outdoor spaces: gardens, terraces, inner courtyards
Whether you're searching for a terrace rental in Nice, a garden for hire in Cannes or a courtyard in Antibes, the French Riviera offers many options. Find locations with direct access, outdoor kitchens, swimming pools, shaded areas, and sea or hill views.
A flexible alternative to classic indoor venues
Outdoor venues offer more flexibility and often a more unique atmosphere than standard indoor spaces. Gardens and terraces easily adapt to all event formats—seated or standing, with or without catering.
How to Choose the Right Terrace or Garden for Your Event?
Check the venue’s guest capacity
Make sure the venue suits your expected number of attendees. A small private garden may be perfect for 50 people, while a large terrace could accommodate 150 or more guests.
Review what’s included in the rental
Some venues include outdoor furniture, lighting, sound systems, restrooms, a prep kitchen or parking. Always ask for a detailed list of what's included in the rental price to avoid extra costs.
Consider location and ease of access
Location is key. Think about whether you want a sea-view terrace in Saint-Tropez, a central location in Nice, or a peaceful garden inland. Check access to public transport, taxis and nearby hotels for guests.
Compare prices and rental terms
Prices vary depending on venue size, location, season, and amenities. Ask for a clear quote and check for any additional costs (cleaning, insurance, security, etc.).
Tips for Hosting a Successful Event in an Outdoor Venue on the French Riviera
Book several weeks in advance
Terraces and gardens are highly requested on the French Riviera, especially between May and September. To secure the best spot in Nice, Cannes or Antibes, book as early as possible.
Plan a backup option for bad weather
Even in the South of France, the weather can be unpredictable. Always plan for a tent, covered area, or indoor backup space in case of rain or wind.
Work with local vendors and service providers
Local caterers, DJs, rental companies and event planners know the region and its venues well. Their experience will help ensure your event runs smoothly from setup to clean-up.
Think about logistics: access, lighting, parking
Check delivery access for vendors, ensure lighting is sufficient after dark, organise guest arrivals and flow throughout the event. Good logistics make a real difference.
