A little closer to home but no less exciting, Les Place Electoniques has marked itself as a rival to the infamous Coachella festival. Here’s what to expect.

From the 5th to the 7th August 2022, Cannes will play host to Les Plages Électroniques at Palais des Festivals, bringing together beautiful people from all around the globe after a two-year hiatus. And the idea is simple: the ultimate party for the most discerning and fun-loving of travellers.

Often referred to as the millionaires’ playground, The Cote d’Azure will once again become the backdrop to Les Plages Électroniques, now in its 15th year.

The iconic sandy beaches and enticingly calm waters of the French Riviera transform into a full festival village as it welcomes up to 60,000 people across the three days and well into the nights.

Uniquely positioned right in the heart of Cannes, Les Plages Électroniques is not your ordinary festival. With not a welly or tent in sight, LPE is a serious treat for the senses, with luxury right at it’s core. From daily boat parties and beach club vibes to after-parties stretching through the night, LPE has positioned itself as the ultimate destination to recharge and let loose.
