ENVIRONMENTAL CONTRIBUTION
Since 2021, registration for the Cannes Film Festival has been subject to an environmental contribution of €20 (excl. VAT) per participant. Indeed emissions attributable to travel to Cannes and accommodation for accredited guests account for over 80% of the event’s carbon footprint each year (excluding the 2021 edition). All proceeds are donated to carbon reduction and sequestration programs.
This offsetting measure is part of the Festival de Cannes’ environmental policy.

- Session 1: from Wednesday 15 May to Friday 17 May
- Session 2: from Monday 20 May to Wednesday 22 May

WHAT DO I GET WITH "3 DAYS IN CANNES" ACCREDITATION?
Accreditation for “3 Days in Cannes” gives you access to the Cinéum, for all films in the Official Selection (Competition, Out of Competition, Special Screenings, Un Certain Regard). Located in the La Bocca district, the Cinéum is the city of Cannes’ brand-new multiplex cinema, and is served by a free shuttle service that runs from the town centre. The Cinéum’s three biggest screening rooms (seating 500, 400 and 270) are primarily geared towards non-professionals, and offer an opportunity to watch films in the very best possible conditions.
Accreditation also gives visitors access to screenings at the Palais des Festivals (and the Grand Théâtre Lumière for some screenings) on a first-come-first-served basis, with industry professionals given priority.
On the last Thursday and Friday of the Festival, a programme exclusively dedicated to “3 Days in Cannes” runs at the Les Arcades cinema.
