MIPIM · Film Festival · Cannes Lions · Yachting Festival

For companies

Five days to matter.

Your brand has one week in Cannes. We source the villa, build the programme, contract the suppliers and run the ground operation — insured, invoiced and accountable. One desk, one contract, zero scrambling.

Event management from 15% of managed budget · 2027 slots limited

What we run

The ground operation.

Villa & venue sourcing. Event production and staffing. Chauffeured transport and airport transfers. Private chefs and catering. Yacht charter and guest experiences. Access, reservations and the thousand small things in between.


For private clients

A deliberately small membership.

For villa owners and returning guests of the Riviera: property oversight through the year, full lifestyle management in season, and the access that comes from being local. We take few members, and it shows.

By application · Résidence €12,000/yr · Signature €25,000/yr

Discretion

Silence is the product.

We publish no client names. Confidentiality is contractual, our staff sign NDAs, and nothing about your stay or your event appears anywhere — including here.

Why Riviera Desk

Local network. Corporate discipline.

Embedded in Cannes

A supplier network built through the city's own hospitality sector — vetted, contracted and insured, with priority access in the weeks that matter.

Agency-grade delivery

Corporate event leadership from inside the world's biggest brand activations. Timelines, budgets and brand compliance — not promises.

One accountable partner

French entity, French contracts, clean invoicing and professional liability cover. Procurement-ready from the first call.
