This year, the strong connection between Air France and the Cannes Film Festival comes to life through La Plage Air France, a pop-up restaurant that has become an iconic fixture of the festival. A space for meetings, gastronomy and the celebration of cinema, La Plage embodies the French art of hospitality and Air France’s deep attachment to the world of cinema.
This partnership is part of a larger story: since its founding, Air France has maintained a close bond with cinema, both on screen and in the real world. Feature films, shoots, promotion, in-flight screenings… cinema has accompanied the airline’s major milestones and contributed to its cultural influence in France and abroad.
This rendezvous at Cannes extends a long-standing history between Air France and the Cannes Film Festival. For more than four decades, the airline has accompanied the world’s greatest cinema event, bringing its expertise, its sense of hospitality, and the French art of travel.
Over the years, Air France has created iconic activations, immersive experiences and exclusive spaces showcasing its cabins, service offering and brand universe. This faithful presence reflects a broader commitment to cinema: transporting talent and crews, celebrating cinema onboard, screening award-winning films, and supporting the spirit of travel.
