During the Festival
During the Festival, Cannes no longer moves the way it usually does.
very May, the Cannes Film Festival transforms the city: the Croisette is gridlocked, the area around the Palais des Festivals is closed off by security perimeters, and finding a taxi after an evening screening is close to impossible. This is exactly when a private chauffeur booked in advance makes the difference.
Cannes Driver handles your travel for the whole Festival: pickup at Nice or Cannes-Mandelieu airport, trips between your hotel, the Palais, the private beaches and your meetings, then the ride back after parties on the Croisette, at Cap d'Antibes or in the villas above Cannes.
Your chauffeur plans around screening times, the drop-off points open under the day's restrictions and the diversion routes. You stay focused on your schedule; your chauffeur takes care of the rest, with complete discretion.

Private Chauffeur for the Cannes Film Festival
For the busiest weeks of the year — the Cannes Film Festival, MIPIM, Cannes Lions and the Yachting Festival — a private chauffeur in Cannes is the most dependable way to move.
Your private driver is available by the hour or by the day, which is the easiest way to organise your movements between hotels, yachts, conference venues and business meetings.
Our professional chauffeurs offer complete discretion, faultless timing and a thorough knowledge of every access point to the Palais des Festivals.
On the ground
What changes during the Festival.
Getting around Cannes in May takes planning. Here is how we organise your trips.
01
Perimeters and drop-off points
The area around the Palais and part of the Croisette are closed to traffic depending on the day and time. Your chauffeur drops you at the nearest accessible point and picks you up there at the agreed time.
02
Late screenings, waiting included
Evening screenings, dinners and parties rarely end on time. With hourly hire, your chauffeur stays nearby and waiting is included: no taxi to hunt for in the middle of the night.
03
Dress and discretion
A chauffeur in proper attire, a vehicle ready for evening wear and complete confidentiality about your movements and your guests.
04
Book early
During the Festival, demand for chauffeurs far exceeds supply. Book two to three weeks ahead to secure the vehicle and times that suit you.
Frequently asked
Everything about your chauffeur for the Cannes Film Festival.
How much does a private chauffeur cost during the Cannes Film Festival?
A transfer between Nice Airport and Cannes starts at €80 in a Comfort Sedan. Hourly hire starts at €60 per hour with a 3-hour minimum, and a full 8-hour day at €480. The exact rate depends on the vehicle and your schedule; it is fixed and confirmed before booking. Flat-rate transfers between 11 pm and 3 am carry a night surcharge.
How far in advance should I book?
Well ahead. During the Festival, demand far exceeds the number of available chauffeurs. We recommend booking two to three weeks before you arrive, and earlier if you need several vehicles.
Can you drop me in front of the Palais des Festivals?
The immediate surroundings of the Palais are subject to traffic restrictions during the Festival. Your chauffeur drops you at the nearest authorised point according to the day's instructions and agrees a precise pickup point with you for the way out.
Can my chauffeur wait during a screening or a party?
Yes, that is what hourly hire is for: the chauffeur stays at your service for the whole booked period, waiting included. Let them know by phone or WhatsApp a few minutes before you come out.
Do you organise transport for a team or a delegation?
Yes. For a film crew, a brand or a group of guests, we coordinate several vehicles, sedans and Mercedes V-Class vans for up to 7 passengers, on a shared schedule. Request a quote with your dates and the number of people.
Do you also cover other events at the Palais des Festivals?
Yes: MIPIM in March, Cannes Lions in June, MIPCOM in October and the other congresses held at the Palais. The approach is the same: airport transfers, hourly hire and coordination of several vehicles.
