Cannes Event Venues
Beach clubs, the Palais, the palace hotels and the old town — fifteen Cannes venues, with the nine CH3 has actually produced in named as such.
Cannes is a small city with an unusually concentrated venue market: almost everything worth booking sits on two kilometres of seafront, and what separates one plage from the next is not the room but how it prices and how late it runs. The fifteen below cover the private beach clubs on the Croisette, the Palais and the three palace hotels, the old town and the Vieux Port, and the daytime spaces inland on Rue Hoche. Nine are venues CH3 has produced in — those cards say what we ran, for whom and at what guest count. The rest are venue intel, and say so.Capacities here are indicative and move with layout, catering and licensing; we confirm them per brief.
Beach Clubs on the Croisette
The default format in Cannes and where most of CH3’s work here has happened. Private plages on the sand between the Carlton and the Martinez, each trading as a restaurant by day and a reception venue by night. Sunset decides the running order more than the venue does.
Rado Plage
The single busiest venue in CH3’s Cannes portfolio. Sand, decking and a bar that runs from breakfast through to a post-sunset reception, on the stretch of Croisette between the Carlton and the Martinez. CH3 has produced five events here in a single EthCC week — dYdX’s 150-guest brunch, Paradigm’s beach café work session, Bitvavo’s Sunset Soirée, and closed formats for Trail of Bits and ReOwn. Trades as Rado Beach on some listings.
L’Ondine
A private plage on the central Croisette, and where two of CH3’s Cannes receptions ran back to back in the same week. Sherlock’s Sunset Beach took 90 guests here from 18:30, and unit 410’s Crypto on the Coast 75, co-hosted with Pantera and NEAR. The stretch is shared with neighbouring concessions, so confirm exactly which section is contracted before you build on it.
Vilebrequin la plage
A beach club on the sand between the Carlton and the Martinez, listed by Google as an event and wedding venue rather than only a restaurant. Its striped cabanas and yellow-trimmed parasols are the most recognisable furniture on the Croisette, which matters if you want the location legible in photography. Adjacent to L’Ondine and frequently co-booked with it.
Lucia
The largest reception CH3 has produced in Cannes ran here. Maker Growth’s Stars in the Sky took 200 guests across the terrace and the sand, with the Sky, Spark and Grove brands on the build. It is the top price tier on this page — worth it when the guest count is high enough that the address is doing work for you.
Miramar Plage
A beach restaurant and cocktail bar on the same Croisette address as Vilebrequin, open until midnight and typed as an event venue. No CH3 event here yet, but it is the closest alternative in character and capacity to the plages we do use — useful as a second option when the EthCC or Cannes Lions weeks have taken everything else on that stretch.
The Palais & the Palace Hotels
The other half of the market: one full-scale congress centre and three Belle Époque palaces along the same kilometre of seafront. This is where room blocks, ballrooms and anything above 300 guests live — and where the conference calendar bites hardest.
Palais des Festivals et des Congrès
The only full-scale conference plant in Cannes and the anchor for every major show in the city — MIPIM, EthCC, the Film Festival, Cannes Lions, TFWA, MIPCOM. Fifteen halls, an auditorium, its own accredited contractor rules and the red-carpet steps. Inside the September-to-December run its halls are committed months ahead; brief sixteen to twenty weeks out for those dates.
Regent Carlton Cannes
The Belle Époque landmark of the Croisette, reopened after a full restoration, with ballrooms, terraces, a garden and its own beach club on the pier. The building is a large part of what a guest remembers, which is the argument for it — and it holds room blocks in the same place as the event. No CH3 production here to date.
Hôtel Martinez
The Art Deco palace at the eastern end of the Croisette, part of Hyatt’s Unbound Collection, with event salons, a rooftop suite and a private beach and jetty. It sits directly behind the plages CH3 works on, so it is the natural accommodation partner for a beach-club event as well as a venue in its own right. No CH3 production here to date.
Hôtel Barrière Le Majestic
The palace hotel closest to the Palais des Festivals — a two-minute walk, which is the whole point of it during a congress week. Ballrooms, a pool terrace, a private beach and the largest banqueting capacity of the three palaces here. During the Film Festival it is effectively unbookable. No CH3 production here to date.
The Old Town, the Port & Rooftops
West of the Palais the character changes completely. Stone rooms in Le Suquet, a design hotel by the Vieux Port and a rooftop facing the sunset rather than away from it. Smaller numbers, lower costs, and nothing that reads as a conference.
Canopy by Hilton Cannes
At the western end by the Vieux Port, away from the Croisette pricing and a short walk from the Palais. Meeting space, a spa and the Marea rooftop in the same building. CH3 has produced twice in this building — a 100-guest DeFi salon at ground level and a private Ethereum gathering on the roof.
Marea Rooftop
The rooftop above Canopy, open 17:00 to 23:00, looking west over the Vieux Port and the bay — which means the sunset is in front of your guests rather than behind them, unlike most of the Croisette. CH3 produced a private Ethereum gathering here. Evening only, and weather-dependent with no indoor fallback of its own.
La Fée Verte
A small candlelit cocktail room in the old town, opening at 17:00, and the highest-rated venue on this page. CH3 has produced two events here — an eighteen-person Ethereum team room and a 50-guest LambdaClass gathering, the latter as a full buyout. At that number it is the whole venue, not a section of one. Steep, narrow streets make load-in slow.
Day Venues & Pop-Up Spaces
Brunches, drop-in spaces, working sessions and closed lunches — the formats that fill a conference week around the evening events. Two of these sit inland on Rue Hoche, where there is no seafront premium at all.
Armani Caffè
A terrace on the Croisette itself, open 09:30 to 19:00 — a daytime venue, not an evening one. CH3 produced the Ethereum Foundation’s private lunch for sixty here during EthCC week. Right when you want the address and the seafront without committing to a full beach-club build, and the hours suit a lunch or an afternoon briefing.
Love Café
Inland on the pedestrianised Rue Hoche, open 08:00 to 16:00 and closed Sundays. CH3 ran Tenderly’s Network Café here as a branded all-day drop-in space for developers — around a hundred people through the door across the day rather than a hundred at once, which is the format this venue is right for. Five minutes from the Croisette, without the pricing.
Green Bagel Café
A daytime café a few doors along the same street, taken as a private buyout rather than hired as a function room. CH3 produced Multiplied’s founders brunch for sixty here, co-hosted with SpaceDev. The right answer when a morning format needs somewhere unpretentious near the centre and the budget is better spent elsewhere.
Venue Comparison Overview
All fifteen side by side — where each sits, what it is, and roughly what it holds. Treat these as working bands, not contracted maximums — layout, catering and the licence all shift them.
