Promoting culture, a core mission for GL events
For GL events, contributing to cultural events such as the Cannes Film Festival is more than just a technical service. The Group considers it essential to support and promote culture and the arts.

Fitting out to serve excellence
In 2024, GL events was once again involved in the project, with a number of iconic fittings. The Group was in charge of designing the structures for the famous steps, the Marché du Film, and the interior and exterior spaces of the Palais, as well as the Agnès Varda cinema. These creations, designed to combine aesthetics and functionality, help maintain the prestige and international stature of this major event.
