Cannes Yachting Festival 2026: One Week to Go — Secured Your Room Yet?
From September 8 to 13, 2026, Cannes’ Vieux-Port hosts the 46th edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival — the largest yachting show at sea in Europe. Five hundred exhibitors, hundreds of sailing yachts and motor yachts moored at the docks, and thousands of professionals and enthusiasts from across Europe converging on the Croisette.
If your schedule has just been confirmed and you’re still looking for a place to stay, a few rooms remain available at Hôtel du Clos. We’re 20 minutes from the docks, in the Grasse countryside — away from the coastal bustle, without being far from it.

Why stay at Hôtel du Clos instead of in Cannes?
During the show, Cannes is packed. Hotels in the city center and along the seafront have been fully booked for weeks, or are charging peak-season rates. Restaurants overflow. Noise and traffic spill into the evening.
From Hôtel du Clos, in Le Rouret, you reach the Vieux-Port in twenty minutes, via the A8 or the back roads. You arrive in the morning feeling fresh, spend the day on the docks at your own pace — and return in the evening to a quiet garden, a pool, and the late-day light over the hills of the Pays de Grasse.
Private on-site parking. Breakfast served until 10am for those who like to take their time.
