Descending on the Palais des Festivals in Cannes, the 2026 edition of MIPCOM welcomes the elite of the media industry to a five-day showcase of exclusive previews and networking opportunities.
Known to attract crowds in surplus of 15,00, plus around 2,000 exhibitors, MIPCOM has a reputation of being a key event in the media industry, with many influential figures attending each year.
Welcoming TV stars, producers, directors, and inspiring keynote speakers, the annual event recognizes achievements from the past year, as well as offering previews of forthcoming projects and merchandise.
Covering an exhibition space of 24,398 meters, the Palais des Festivals is a well-known location in the yachting industry, with many France yacht charters visiting during the Cannes Yachting Festival every September.
Displaying around 320 stands, pods, and country/ regional pavilions, the layout of MIPCOM is clearly zoned and advocates a seamless flow of movement around the exhibits.
With over 100 countries being represented at the event, MIPCOM is an ideal opportunity for industry professionals in TV, film, and digital media to connect with key influencers and aspiring newcomers with all the necessary facilities under one roof.
In addition to the mixture of curated exhibitors, visiting Cannes yacht charter guests, and professionals have exclusive access to a program of events and seminars, giving insights into future trends and information on the latest developments.
Situated a short distance from the captivating Vieux Port, MIPCOM and the Palais des Festivals are an ideal match for a corporate yacht charter, or as an enticing addition to an existing French Riviera yacht charter vacation.
Providing an indulgent space away from the hustle and bustle of the exhibition hall, a private yacht charter is an impressive way to inspire prospective clients and a premium venue for cocktail parties in the evening.
Boasting close proximity to many local attractions like the beach, La Croisette, and the beautiful old town of le Suquet, Vieux Port has been known to host some phenomenal motor yacht charters, especially during other major events like the Cannes Film Festival.
Some well-known luxury yacht charters known to have visited Vieux Port over the years include 116.6ft (35.51m) motor yacht charter LAFAYETTE, 128.11ft (39.3m) charter yacht S7, and 108.3ft (32.99m) super yacht charter NEVER GIVE UP.
Opening times and dates for MIPCOM 2026 are yet to be announced.
Yacht charters during Cannes and MIPCOM not only grant charter guests exclusive access to high-profile speakers and product launches at the main events but also offer a gateway to the stunning sights of a Mediterranean yacht charter.
Luxury yacht charters elevate the French Riviera experience with visits to the quaint island of Saint Honorat and the picturesque Lerins Abbey (Abbaye de Lerins). Expanding to the captivating coastline near Villefranche and La Chapelle Saint Pierre, there’s no shortage of beautiful scenery along the Côte d'Azur, along with ample opportunity to dive into thrilling watersports.
