CANNES,
CREATIVE
The City of Cannes’ cultural roots are embedded
in its history as much as its DNA.
CITY
They are most clearly manifested through
CITY
the Cannes Film Festival and the major
C R E AT I V E C A N D I DAT E
international trade fairs and conventions that
contribute to a large part of the city’s economic
dynamism, but also through our desire to offer
each young Cannes resident the opportunity to
benefit from an artistic and cultural education throughout his or her schooling.
It is by allowing the widest possible spread of art and culture through a policy
combining that culture with supply and demand that we will give everyone
the tools to flourish and remove themselves from the unfortunate destinies
that may be foisted on them.
CANNES
With Cannes On Air, we bring together public and private players to create an
ecosystem informed by the creative economy and major structuring projects, in
particular the University Training Centre, dedicated to the writing and audiovisual
professions, as well as through CréACannes Lérins, a collection of companies
David Lisnard,
specialising in digital, creative, and spatial fields. From the University to the
Mayor of Cannes
President of the Festival and Convention Centre and through our various infrastructure projects,
Cannes Lérins such as the future World Cinema and Festival Museum, the development of this
Agglomeration goal is thanks to the cross-fertilisation that gives it such solid cohesion, both
Community conceptually and geographically.
For these reasons, joining the UNESCO Creative Cities Network
would be a tremendous opportunity for the creative economy and would offer
the possibility for partner cities to forge close links with Cannes so that
we can share our respective experiences. This will ensure that culture,
our greatest asset, continues to serve the common good and
that creation remains at the service of everyone.
