The city of Cannes, located on France's magnificent Côte d'Azur, has once again been crowned a winner at the World Travel Awards. For the third year running, Cannes has been voted "Europe's Best Destination for Festivals and Events".

A victory that places it ahead of such renowned metropolises as London, Barcelona, Budapest, Derry, Dublin, Madeira, Munich and Venice.

This remarkable achievement is the fruit of years of dedication and hard work on the part of the many teams working at Cannes' famous Palais des Festivals et des Congrès. However, it is also the result of the fruitful collaboration between the city of Cannes, its customers and its partners committed to promoting tourism and the festival and events industry.

Commenting on this outstanding achievement, Jean-Michel Arnaud, President of the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès de Cannes, said: "This latest recognition at the World Travel Awards rewards years of dedication and effort on the part of our teams at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès de Cannes, as well as all our customers and partners working alongside us. This title also recognizes our commitment to our mission of "Welcoming the World sustainably". In 2023, this dynamic will result in a record year, with more than 150 events and nearly 300,000 professionals hosted at the Palais."
