The Cannes Festival returns to its effervescent rhythm on the Croisette between screenings, stair climbs and private evenings. An official partner of the festival for 18 years, Nespresso is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year with a more immersive presence than ever around its now unmissable Nespresso Beach.
Facing the Mediterranean, the brand’s private beach changes decor to adopt the colorful universe of “Vertuo World”, its new campaign dedicated to iced coffees. Exit muted codes: make way for a pop aesthetic with retro accents, between lavender, yuzu yellow and bubble gum pink. A way for the brand to evolve its image while retaining its lifestyle DNA.
Putting down your suitcases at the legendary Hôtel Martinez is already diving into the excitement of Cannes. But the real beating heart of the stay is located a few meters further down, with your feet in the sand, on the Nespresso beach. A place of relaxation where festival-goers discover the new Vertuo Up machine and the frozen creations imagined for the occasion: Coconut Vanilla Over Ice, French Lavender and Vanilla Decaffeinatedor even Yuzu Vanilla Over Ice. All in a pop and retro scenography in shades of lavender, yuzu yellow and bubble gum pink, designed like an immense colorful swimming pool where iced coffee becomes king.
After an express passage through the Martinez to put on the required tuxedo, head up the steps under the flashes, then to the Grand Théâtre Lumiere for the screening of Fatherlandle nouvel opus de Paweł Pawlikowski avec Sandra Hüllerrecently named Chanel ambassador.
