La Plage Nespresso

The Cannes Film Festival, arguably the most prestigious in the world since 1946, screens more than 4,000 films each year (from the official program alongside the Marché du Film). Beyond celebrating cinema, the festival also serves as a parfait opportunity for industry professionals to network. The Croisette beach’s Nespresso Beach Café is the perfect set for a coffee break, where a cup of Joe pairs nicely with a breath of fresh sea air after hours in packed theaters.

After those famous 15-minute standing ovations, attendees may also need a place to rest their feet. Here, they can slip off their shoes, sink their toes into the sand, and enjoy a scene as refreshing as any on the silver screen.

Here, the espresso flows as freely as the Mediterranean breeze. By day, it’s a sun-washed café where producers and actors compare notes over cappuccinos. By night, it glows like a lantern on the shore, perfect for a rendezvous where ideas, projects, and perhaps film deals sparkle under the Riviera stars. A spot for stars under the stars, if you will.

In Cannes, every shot is perfected—whether it’s framed on film or pulled from the espresso machine.
