MIPIM Cannes 2026

MIPIM (International Real-Estate Professionals Market) 2026 is upon us!

It’s been a busy pre-prep week all around town. The energy is flowing the town is looking fantastic.

Here at Right Venues Group we have also been busy preparing for our clients arrival, from the accommodation checks, to venue event bookings across town, yacht charters, we are almost ready.

I would also like to share that it is our 10th MIPIM Anniversary, I know we cannot believe it either. It’s been an incredible journey! A lot of learning, building stronger each year and it keeps on growing. So proud of our achievements here in Cannes.

We are so excited to see our loyal long-term clients return and just as much to see our new clients.

We are here to support and guide in anyway we can. We know what we are doing.

For MIPIM attendees that are not familiar with us, we are a full support service for all attendees.

Services we support:

Accommodation, Exclusive villas, Airport transfers, Yacht charters, Private event space,

Full event management, restaurant reservations, and much more. 

If anyone has some free time and would like to meet for a coffee for a quick overview of our services and how we can help next year. Contact Liz on +44 (0) 7 966 840 836

What Liz doesn’t know is not worth knowing.

See you next week!
