Cannes (Festival de la Plaisance)

[captainalex]

Morning all,

Looking for some advice from those in the know. I believe i'm correct in thinking there is an evening show/event on the Friday with the fireworks etc.. but cannot see anything on the website. Has anyone been before that can advise?

Many thanks

Don't know, but slightly related we anchored off Cannes for the last of the displays in the World Fireworks competition at the start of last week. Completely amazing, no less than nine seperate pontoons all launching fireworks in a co-ordinated display with classical music.

Ah yes, i believe i read about that in the Nice Matin. I'm sure i've seen something about fireworks during the boat show, i remember two years ago when they launched the gusta 165 there was a special evening event. Maybe not this year..
