Hosting a Cannes Film Festival Breakfast Meeting

💫 How Everything Started 💫

During the bustling Cannes Film Festival, finding the right event space can be a complex challenge. It is is one of the busiest times of the year in Cannes, bringing in film industry professionals and stars from around the world. With limited venue availability and high demand, securing the perfect space is no easy feat. Frank Stein Studio approached Native Spaces with a request for a relaxed breakfast meeting venue, specifically designed for a guest list of actors attending the festival.

🎬Frank Stein Studio’s Request 🎬

For Frank Stein Studio’s event, it was essential to find a location close to La Croisette for convenient access, with a setup that would allow guests to comfortably mingle in a standing, cocktail-style format.

Event Specifications:

Dates: one morning during the Cannes Film Festival. Guest Count: Approximately 100 people. Budget: 5k euros, including a simple catering setup. Location: Walking distance from La Croisette.

Frank Stein Studio also requested assistance in connecting with a photographer to capture the event and a hostess to handle guest check-ins. With these details in hand, we set out to find the ideal venue.

🎈Chosen Venue & Results

The team, along with the contact from Frank Stein Studio, evaluated a variety of spaces, including private beaches, restaurants, and event venues. However, as the search progressed, it became evident that many options were either over budget or unable to comfortably accommodate the entire guest list. Flexibility and ambiance were essential, so we focused on finding a space that offered both privacy and a relaxed atmosphere for the event’s attendees.

After multiple rounds of consideration, we found a large modular room that could comfortably host more than 100 guests. The location was ideal, conveniently close to La Croisette and the Palais des Festivals, providing easy access for all attendees.

To complete the experience, we provided Frank Stein Studio with contacts for a reliable photographer and a professional hostess, ensuring that every detail was handled in preparation for the event.

The breakfast meeting was a success, and Frank Stein Studio expressed their appreciation for the seamless venue selection and our responsive support throughout the process.

💬Feedback from client

All was very well organised and professional and I am so grateful to you for Sonja’s patience and professionalism at finding our space and the ancillary services - we loved Arturo (the photographer) and our hostess Marine.

💫 Context 💫

EG, a leader in data and insights for the UK commercial real estate market, aimed to host an exclusive dinner for industry leaders on the sidelines of MIPIM, the premier global real estate congress held annually in Cannes. With MIPIM drawing top professionals from around the world, EG sought to create an intimate, relaxed gathering separate from the main event—a setting conducive to networking and relationship-building.

🏗️ Eg’s Request 🏗️

EG's vision for the dinner focused on creating a private environment that combined sophistication with functionality. Key requirements included:

Private and Exclusive Area: The restaurant was totally privatised for them to guarantee the confidentiality of discussions. There was also a reception area for pre-dinner cocktails to encourage discussion. Food and Beverage Package: EG required an all-inclusive package covering food and wine, plus an open bar during the welcome drinks, featuring champagne, wine, cocktails, and soft drinks. Long Table Seating Arrangement: The setup needed to include two long tables of 15, fostering connection and conversation across the table while keeping the arrangement intimate and organized. Spring-Inspired Decor: The table decor was requested to be simple, with bud vases and tealights in a fresh, Spring-inspired palette to match the season’s ambiance. Low Background Music: Ensuring guests could converse comfortably, EG requested that background music remain at a low volume throughout the evening.

🎈 Chosen Venue & Results

After a thorough search of potential venues, EG selected a sophisticated restaurant near the Palais des Festivals for its versatile ambiance and high-end service. This restaurant provided dedicated areas for both the welcome drinks reception and seated dinner, creating an exclusive environment ideal for EG’s networking goals.

The event delivered on every detail and we are already in conversations to find a new venue for next year’s event.

💬 Feedback from client

💫 How It All Started 💫

Everything was falling into place for the wedding, but then disaster struck. The original venue, already booked, suffered major water damage. With only two weeks to go, the couple was in full panic mode, left without a venue for their 70 guests who were traveling from across France. The caterer was booked, the music selected, the décor planned—everything was ready except for the location. Finding an emergency venue on the Côte d'Azur, in early September, seemed nearly impossible.

Nestled in a natural park in Eze, in the south of France, this villa was a dream come true: an amphitheater with a stage perfect for ceremonies, and a stunning rose garden among other incredible features. It was easily accessible, with views that were simply unforgettable.

Your property has a unique charm and you are considering hosting photoshoots and filming sessions there? Here are some tips to optimize your space so it becomes the go-to place for all brands looking for the perfect shots!

1. Bet on a bright and spacious location

For a successful photo session, nothing is more important than the brightness of the place where you are! Make sure you have large windows, maybe even bay windows, but above all, beautiful natural light. Photographers and videographers often look for well-lit places to get beautiful shots. You can also add an integrated LED system to create different atmospheres or have some accessories such as colored backdrops, projectors, or light umbrellas.

2. Flexible and harmonious decoration

The subject of decoration varies from person to person; some brands look for neutral and clean places while others prefer properties with charm and original decoration. The most important thing is to have a beautiful harmony with a choice decoration. To be sure to please everyone, you can opt for neutral wall colors such as white, beige, or light gray to create a background that can adapt to different shooting styles. However, you can also assert yourself by choosing a very specific atmosphere that matches your property and offers an original and atypical setting. Also, think about the small details so that the small elements and basic equipment blend into the decor. Remember, everything must be coherent, stylish, and aesthetic.

Another tip is to favor modular furniture with pieces that are easy to move to allow teams to adjust the space according to their needs.

3. Varied spaces

One of the advantages your property can offer is different atmospheres through a variety of different rooms (designer living room, friendly and warm dining room and kitchen, flowered terrace, and garden...). The more rooms and styles your place has, the more it lends itself to a multitude of creative possibilities. Additionally, outdoor spaces are also important; feel free to highlight your garden, terrace, balcony... These spaces can be very attractive for filming and photoshoots. Finally, if your property offers a superb view of the surroundings, that's an additional bonus!

4. Cleanliness and tidiness

To host shootings and filming, one crucial point is cleanliness. Your property must be impeccable in terms of hygiene but also in terms of tidiness. Favor storage spaces to offer a clean, neutral, and adaptable space. Your place must make a good impression at first glance!

5. Take care of the photos in your listing

The brands that will contact you to organize a shoot or filming in your place will primarily decide based on the quality of the photos in your listing. If you are not comfortable with this aspect, you can hire a professional photographer to capture your property at its best. High-quality, bright, and airy photos attract more potential clients. It is also possible to prepare your space before the photo session by creating scenes that show the different uses of the location so that your future clients can envision themselves in your property.

Once all these elements are gathered, you will ensure the best possible conditions for a successful shoot or filming session! By following these tips, you can create an ideal location and a serene and pleasant experience for your guests while retaining them for their future events.

Lately, the trend is for originality, and weddings are no exception! Whether you add an unusual touch to the choice of venue, theme, decoration, or even the meal, you are invited to stand out for a unique moment that will remain in memories and surprise your loved ones.

Personalizing your wedding makes this day even more unique and allows you to reflect your story and style. This year, wedding trends are evolving to include more creative, sustainable, and personalized elements. Here is an overview of the hottest trends to help you organize yours.

Wedding trends of the year

1. A timeless wedding

Do you dream of a fairy tale wedding? Go all out by privatizing a beautiful castle for your ceremony and reception.

Step through the doors of a historic castle surrounded by lush gardens to experience the wedding of your dreams. A wedding in a castle is not just a ceremony; it's a true immersion in an enchanting and majestic universe that plunges you into a romantic atmosphere!

From your arrival, your guests will be transported to another era where elegance reigns. For a grand wedding, enlist a decorator to give the place its full character with flower-lined walkways, embroidered drapes hanging from the ceiling, or light shows in the gardens...

With the reception taking place in the castle, you can plan a beautiful ceremony in a small chapel or in the gardens. For lunch, arrange long linen-draped tables with porcelain tableware. Open the ball in one of the castle's grand rooms for an extraordinary moment.

Other options are also possible to add magic, such as setting up fireworks or arriving in vintage cars...

Some examples:

A romantic castle in Grasse

Exceptional historic castle

Castle with French gardens

2. A wedding at sea

Hasn't a wedding on a ship always been a dream for sea and ocean lovers? Experience a romantic adventure in a unique natural setting!

Whether it's an intimate wedding on a small catamaran or a grand ceremony on a luxurious yacht, a wedding at sea on a boat offers you an experience as unique as it is unforgettable, with the horizon stretching as far as the eye can see...

Make this ceremony extraordinary by decorating the boat's deck with a multitude of flowers and ribbons, anchoring in a turquoise-water cove at the time of exchanging vows... the possibilities are endless.

Choosing a boat also allows you to organize a cocktail on board, taking advantage of this idyllic setting during sunset in a serene and romantic atmosphere. Don't hesitate to hire a professional photographer to capture these unique moments with stunning photos.

Some examples:

Beautiful Parisian barge

Exceptional catamaran in the south of France

Elegant and luxurious yacht

3/ A wedding in nature

This year, one of the major trends is the rustic wedding in a simple and natural setting. Opt for simplicity through the choice of a natural environment with a pleasant and soothing decor.

Exchange your vows in a natural setting, surrounded by the beauty of nature, whether it's a large verdant park, a lush forest, or a sandy beach. A wedding in nature offers a magical and authentic experience for couples seeking simplicity and romance. With sunny weather, the song of birds, and a bucolic setting, this moment will be unique and perfect.

Although simple in appearance, this type of venue offers great possibilities for decoration... Set up natural wood chairs and benches in the grass or on the sand facing a beautiful flowered arch for an idyllic ceremony.

In the same spirit, offer a rustic and convivial outdoor reception to enjoy the location. A cocktail in such an environment will surely charm your guests! Do the same for the meal with floral and elegant decor. Choosing this option promises you an authentic and charming wedding.

Some examples:

Private romantic beach

Provençal farmhouse in the heart of the hills

Paradisiacal natural park

4. An artistic and elegant wedding

If you are an art lover and looking for an original ceremony, this idea should please you! How about celebrating your wedding in a museum or art gallery?

Getting married surrounded by works of art is becoming increasingly popular due to the beauty of the locations and the symbolism of the gesture. Museums and art galleries are inspiring places that enhance the sacred dimension of the event.

Moreover, art galleries offer a venue already tastefully decorated in a unique atmosphere according to the mood they wish to convey, and the spaces are often modular and spacious!

This new trend also ensures that you offer your loved ones an unforgettable experience.

Some examples:

Original sculpture house

Contemporary art gallery

Art center in the heart of the Marais

5. A green and eco-friendly wedding

Nowadays, many couples celebrate their wedding responsibly and in harmony with their values, in a very inspiring way!

Contrary to what one might think, it is not that complicated, here are some little tips:

Prefer digital invitations to classic paper invitations, or select recycled paper cards with eco-friendly inks A simple and seasonal decoration with local flowers, recyclable and sustainable materials A festive meal with local, organic, and seasonal products

As for the venue, why not choose a beautiful large renovated building for a charming and authentic setting or an old farmhouse if you are in the south of France?

Today, it is entirely possible to organize a stunning wedding in an eco-friendly way.

Some examples:

Exceptional Provençal country house

Warm and friendly old country house

Renovated Norman building

At Native Spaces, we help you find the venue of your dreams for this unique and memorable day. Whatever your expectations, we have the property that suits you all across France!

💫 How it all began 💫

Cannes Lions, also known as the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, is an annual event that brings together professionals from the creative communications, advertising, and related fields. During this week in June, the whole city of Cannes is transformed and you can see all kind of companies hosting events and adding their brand everywhere possible.

Before Lions Festival in 2023, the AdWeek team reached out to Native Spaces. They were looking for a venue walking distance from the Palais that could be transformed to host all the different events they had in mind and that would also offer visibility from La Croisette. They were looking to host various activities, including panels, meetings, interviews, and happy hours.

📰 Why AdWeek Chose Native Spaces? 📰

During the 2023 Festival, they only hired additional services from the Native Spaces network of local suppliers and they planned some visits so they would take full advantage of their Lions experience. They fell in love with the space that their Customer Success Manager presented to them and they started preparing everything for 2024 right after.

Some of the recurring feedback they shared is that they really appreciated having someone they could trust based near Cannes, that there was a local team that could manage communication between the Americans and the French and that they were extremely happy with the reactivity and availability of the team.

💚 The Chosen Space 💚

They chose a rooftop in the middle of La Croisette, with amazing views and different areas that can be separated and transformed to host all the different activations they had planned.

To ensure the space was decorated to their brand standards, AdWeek requested recommendations for a branding company, furniture rental, flower decorations, and a photographer. Morgane facilitated these needs, providing trusted contacts and ensuring the venue was transformed into a unique and functional space for all their activities.

🎉 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎉

The rooftop venue selected for AdWeek was a huge success, meeting all their needs and providing a beautiful setting for their events. They liked it so much that they are already on discussions to rebook it for the 2025 Festival.

Do you want to host groups for seminars at your venue throughout the year? In this article, we give you 5 tips to optimize your property to receive teams with peace of mind!

1. A spacious and bright venue

Firstly, two key factors for the smooth running of a corporate seminar are offering a spacious place with good lighting. Indeed, professionals who travel will likely need a workspace to organize workshops, meetings, and brainstorming sessions; it is therefore essential that they have access to a healthy and pleasant work environment to increase productivity. Moreover, it is crucial to have a room dedicated to work, such as a meeting or reception room large enough to accommodate groups.

2. Sleeping arrangements

Having a sleeping area is also a significant option! Several companies organize multi-day seminars or travel a few hours from their main workplace; we recommend having several individual rooms with their own bathrooms available so that the group does not have to move throughout the day. This is the ideal solution for your guests; your venue will be more highlighted if the company can work and sleep in the same place; it's a real time and efficiency gain for them.

3. Nearby dining options and activities

A seminar is not always exclusively work time! Indeed, many companies like to mix business with pleasure by planning some convivial moments between productivity phases. Feel free to highlight the restaurants and activities your region offers to give them ideas and make their task easier. From the moment of their reservation, you can, for example, take the initiative to send them a brochure with your suggestions on the best nearby restaurants and bars or must-see visits around your accommodation! Moreover, if you offer a culinary service yourself or know team-building organizers, it is important to highlight this as these are significant advantages.

4. A pleasant setting with additional services

In the same vein, the more your venue offers additional services, the more likely you are to host numerous seminars. We recommend highlighting the different spaces dedicated to meetings; whether it's a large room for a plenary meeting or several smaller ones for committee meetings. If you also have a spa, a pool, a game room, a large outdoor park, or a particular location, all these services set you apart from other venues and make you even more attractive. Your venue should be optimized to offer good working conditions, but it is also essential that it provides a pleasant stay setting.

5. Quality equipment

Finally, last but not least, do not hesitate to invest in quality equipment to offer an optimal work environment.

We recommend offering:

A spacious and bright meeting/conference room Comfortable and modular furniture A video projection system and digital screens Audio equipment with individual microphones Optimal internet connection Plenty of electrical outlets A refreshment area

Once all these elements are gathered, you will ensure the best possible conditions for a successful corporate seminar! By following these tips, you can create a memorable experience and retain your clients for their future professional events.

Held annually in early autumn at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes, the Tax Free World Congress is a must-attend event for over 3000 internationally recognized brands in the duty-free and travel retail sector. This unique event brings together these industry players to provide brands with an opportunity to create and maintain their business relationships and collaborations, while finding support to increase their sales.

The TFWA is also a showcase for the many participants and a unique event to highlight market innovations and new products, to address all marketing and communication issues on products, and to take stock of trends in the coming years.

Organise private and networking events away from the Palais during Tax Free World Congress

While you can find all the exhibitors' stands inside the Palais, some brands and companies take advantage of this event to organize sideline events of the congress to raise awareness or increase engagement with their customers and partners.

For a week, they have key actors and decision-makers in their industry gathered in the same city, so it's about taking advantage of it and creating unique experiences to attract them and interact with them in a more private and unique setting.

they organize parties and cocktails for networking in beach clubs and villas on the hills; they rent and transform apartments, lofts, and penthouses to host meetings; and they organize breakfasts, lunches, and dinners with selected clients in exclusive restaurants.

At Native Spaces, we are used to finding locations in this context, and we help our clients find the perfect places to create the experiences they envision by guiding them through the different places you can find in Cannes. In addition, we have built our own network of trusted service providers; so we can help you find all the additional services you might need.

10 key tips for a successful Tax Free World Congress side event

Organising an event alongside the Tax Free World Congress (TFWA) can be an excellent opportunity to maximise engagement with your customers and partners. Here are some tips to ensure your event is a success:

1. Plan ahead

Start your preparations several months before the TFWA. Book your necessary venues, suppliers and services in advance to avoid any last-minute unavailability. Popular accommodation and venues fill up quickly, especially during major events like the TFWA.

2. Choose an appropriate venue

Select a venue that matches your brand's image and the type of event you want to organise. Whether it's a chic restaurant, an elegant penthouse, a quiet villa in the hills, or a luxurious yacht, make sure the ambience and facilities meet your needs.

3. Personalise the experience

To make your event memorable, add personal touches such as company branding, personalised gifts and interactive activities. Think about decoration, music and lighting to create a unique atmosphere.

4. Offer engaging activities

Offer experiences that will capture your guests' attention. This can include product demonstrations, workshops, conferences with industry experts or team-building activities. Meaningful interactions leave a lasting impression.

5. Optimise logistics

Make sure that all logistical aspects of your event are well organised. This includes guest transport, access to the venue, seating arrangements and availability of audiovisual equipment. Have a plan B for unforeseen events, such as weather conditions or technical breakdowns.

6. Communicate effectively

Send out invitations well in advance and make sure your guests have all the information they need. Use e-mail reminders and notifications to maintain interest. During the event, use clear announcements and signage to guide your guests.

7. Offer quality food and drink

The quality of your food and drink can greatly influence the experience of your guests. Hire reputable caterers and offer a variety of choices to suit all tastes. Also consider dietary restrictions and provide suitable options.

10. Evaluate and track results

After the event, gather feedback from your guests to assess what went well and what could be improved. Use this information to optimise your future events. Measure the results in terms of new contacts, collaborations and return on investment.

Top 6 places to hold a successful event at Tax Free World

1. A unique restaurant

Restaurants are a great solution to bring together your clients, partners, or teams in a more relaxed environment and share a meal (brunch, lunch, dinner). You can choose to make it more exclusive by privatizing a specific space of the place, so that you can freely exchange during your business discussions. Some restaurants offer the possibility of adding your branding and even changing their facade to make the experience even more unique and immersive.

An example would be the Wall Street Journal during the Cannes Lions, they created their own bistro where people could enjoy a meal in a place fully branded with the WSJ.

Some examples:

Restaurant in the heart of Cannes La Muse Cannes Centre Club Cannes Bistro near the Palais des Festivals

2.Comfortable apartments, lofts, and penthouses

Native Spaces offers you the option to rent an apartment, loft, or penthouse a few steps from the Palais des Festivals; you can transform and adapt your accommodation as you wish to host your meetings, a few cocktails, or even private dinners.

We also offer you the option to privatize entire buildings to gather your entire team in a central location where you can work. Some properties even benefit from outdoor spaces such as private terraces, patios, or rooftops. However, if your visit only requires a place to stay in the evening after a busy day at the TFWA, we also have what you need!

Some examples:

Luxurious 3-bedroom apartment facing the Palais des Festivals Duplex Penthouse with sea view Apartments in luxury villas Building with 6 apartments near the Palais des Festivals Residence with 6 apartments facing the Palais des Congrès

3.A villa on the hills

In addition, to engage in a pleasant setting and to have a serene stay, why not rent a superb villa on the hills, away from the city noise and in a more intimate atmosphere? A large number of these properties have big rooms with a large capacity, but also all the necessary equipment for a successful stay with your teams! Why not organize a cocktail by the pool to close your stay and celebrate your participation in your last congress?

Some examples:

Restaurant in the heart of Cannes La Muse Cannes Centre Club Cannes Bistro near the Palais des Festivals

4.Cannes and its beach clubs

Known and recognized for its seafront and its Croisette, choosing a beach club to plan your day at the TFWA is emblematic. It's the perfect place to organize end-of-day cocktails to network in an ideal setting. Moreover, our places are located a few steps from the Palais des Festivals and have high visibility which allows you to develop your relationships and influence.

Some examples:

Globals Drinks Intel - TFWA

During the year 2023, at Native Spaces, we had a challenge to take up!

7. Communicate effectively

Clearly inform participants of the details of the seminar, including the programme, objectives, expectations and practical information. Transparent and regular communication before and during the event helps to avoid misunderstandings and ensures that everyone participates actively.

💫 How It All Began 💫

MIPCOM (Marché International des Programmes de Communication) is the global entertainment market that annually convenes industry leaders, content creators, and distributors to explore trends and forge partnerships in the realm of television and digital entertainment. Cannes, for four days, becomes a platform for networking, deal-making, and showcasing cutting-edge content to a global audience.

For MIPCOM 2023, Banijay Group, a leading international content creation and distribution company, was looking to elevate their presence at MIPCOM. They sought to create their own and distinctive space that would serve as a hub for meetings and networking during the event.

📽️ Why Banijay Group Chose Native Spaces? 📽️

Banijay Group, amidst the preparations for MIPCOM, recognized that they needed a strategic place close to the Palais where they could craft an environment that not only reflected their brand essence but also provided a conductive setting for productive meetings and networking opportunities.

In their research for a unique venue, they turned to Native Spaces for their expertise in finding spaces for side events during the congresses in Cannes.

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

With a keen understanding of Banijay's requirements, the Customer Success Manager at Native Spaces proposed an apartment right in front of the Palais de Congrès that they could transform into a multifunctional space tailored to their needs.

The space location and distribution was great, however they needed to completely change it and refurnish it. It wasn’t a problem at all, we helped them find them a good local company that could help them do this work and they were able to create their perfect space for both meetings and a fabulous cocktail.

🎉 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎉

Banijay Group's decision to partner with Native Spaces proved to be a success. The centric loft exceeded expectations and was the perfect venue in terms of light, space and location. their experience was so positive that they secured their venue for MIPCOM 24 right after the event!

The apartment space worked really well for us in terms of location and also the size of the space. we still need to do our post MIP debrief but I would like to say at this point, it would be great to get first refusal on the apartment for next year! - Representative from Banijay

How to stand out from the crowd in Cannes by using marketing strategies from the world’s biggest brand names

One of the biggest entertainment events on the planet, big-name brands come to the Cannes Film Festival for one reason and one reason only. Hosted by the Riviera’s most glamorous beach resort, the two week festival offers brands an exclusive opportunity to enhance their visibility and build or expand their brand image.

A platform to showcase products and services to an international audience, organising a marketing event in Cannes allows brands to leverage the festival's prestige and global reach. Through these marketing events, brands can create memorable experiences, strengthen their identity, and form lasting connections with key players from the entertainment, music and fashion industries.

Here are 4 of the most successful marketing ideas we’ve seen at Cannes over the years:

1. Beach Clubs

An immersive experience, taking over a beach for the duration of the festival is one of the most successful marketing strategies used by brands during the Cannes Film Festival, allowing them to showcase their products and reinforce their association with the timeless elegance and sophistication of the French Riviera’s chicest beach resort.

For over 10 years, Magnum has taken up residence on the Croisette, creating a luxurious beach lounge where attendees can indulge in customised Magnum ice creams, enjoy live music and enjoy a glamorous beach experience. Not to be outdone, Nespresso also hosts the famous Nespresso La Plage, a beach lounge where festival-goers can relax and enjoy specialty coffee before taking a masterclass with their personal barista at the Nespresso Boutique in the city centre.

2. Gala Evenings

The ultimate in old-school glamour, hosting a gala evening during the Film Festival enables brands to raise awareness and funds whilst also providing unparalleled networking, collaboration, and business opportunities. By incorporating features such as fashion shows and live music performances, hosting a gala evening during Festival Fortnight can help you make a lasting impression on your guests all while building brand affinity.

One of Festival Fortnight’s most exclusive events, the amfAR Gala is a dazzling affair held at the  Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes each year to raise money for AIDS research. Hosted by some of the biggest names in the film, music and fashion industries, the evening usually features a runway show plus live performances from top international artists, all while raising money in support of AIDS research.

3. Dinner Parties

A great opportunity for networking and socialising, hosting a dinner party during the Cannes Film Festival allows your guests to strengthen existing relationships and discuss potential collaborations and business opportunities in a more intimate setting. The perfect way to promote your brand, hosting a dinner party during Festival Fortnight will enable you to engage with a diverse and influential audience while creating a memorable experience for your guests.

One of the best-loved Festival events, each year luxury jewellery brand Chopard throws an unforgettable dinner party during the Cannes Film Festival. Attracting high-profile guests from all over the world, the Chopard Party celebrates the long-standing partnership between the jeweller and the Film festival and reinforces Chopard's status as an iconic luxury brand. Held in some of the most exciting venues in and around the city, the Chopard Party has become one of the Festival’s most anticipated events, adding to the brand’s international prestige and allure.

4. Pop-up Events

One of the easiest ways to get exposure to a global audience during the Festival is to organise a pop-up event, and Cannes offers a range of unique opportunities for brands looking to take advantage of the festival experience. The ideal venue to showcase your products and services, the Film Festival also guarantees significant exposure and engagement with your audience allowing you to build brand loyalty and create a lasting impression on both new and existing customers.

A Cannes Film Festival partner for over 25 years, cosmetics giant L’Oreal knows all about the advantages of staging a pop-up event during festival fortnight. From taking over a private beach to show classic films each evening to hosting a pop-up beauty bar creating exclusive hair and makeup looks, L’Oreal’s Cannes pop-up campaigns allow them to promote their new lines whilst aligning themselves with all the glitz and glamour traditionally with the film industry.

Trying to figure out the price of your listing? We've got you covered! In this guide, we'll break down everything you need to know about how Native Spaces’ rental pricing works, making it easy for you to understand so you can easily complete your venue pricing.

1. Choose the pricing model

You will firstly have to decide how are you basing your price. With Native Spaces you can choose between 3 options:

1 Renting the venue for a fee

I charge an hourly or daily rental fee to privatise my space. I do not require minimum spend on catering or other services.

2 Renting with a minimum spend

I do not charge a fee to rent the space, but I require a minimum spend on our services (such as catering) in order to privatise the space.

3 Renting with a fee + minimum spend

To privatise the space I require both a rental fee and a minimum spend on my services (such as catering).

Usually places such as restaurants or bars choose the “Renting with a minimum spend” option since they can provide the food and beverages and this enables them to make a profit higher than the price of privatisation. While private properties (villas, flats, etc.), normally choose the option “Renting the venue for a fee” with a price per hour or per day.

2. Additional Pricing details

You have an open description available to provide more details on:

Starting prices for different event types (film/photo shoot, private event, retreat/stay) Pricing variations based on the number of guests Pricing with and without accommodation Additional services you offer: cleaning fees, catering etc.

3. Is the pricing seasonal?

Some properties have different values depending on the season. So, you can define high-season or low-season prices. You will also have define your periods for high and low season.

For example, high season for private beaches is during warmer periods (May to October) whereas for chalets in the mountains is during ski season (November to March) and they usually put higher prices during these periods due to higher demand.

4. Check similar spaces in the catalog

You can check what other spaces similar to yours have put as pricing on their properties.

5. Define your event space pricing

Giving a price for an event is a complicated task since you have a lot of different factors that can have a great impact on the final quote (time of the day, number of hours, number of guests, etc.). In order to have a much more detailed and accurate pricing for your rental we have created a system that will allow you to better define your rental fees.

This new system uses a specific number of guests for an event and builds the pricing around this quantity. You can activate different ranges of time and define a staring price for each:

Per hour: Define a starting price per hour and the minimum hours you will rent it for. For half a day: Define a starting price for a 4h rental. For an evening event: Define a starting price for an evening event counting between 6pm and midnight For an day event: Define a starting price for a day event, counting between 9am and 6pm For day & evening event: Define a starting price for an event, counting between 9am and midnight.

These starting prices will be based on a certain number of guests for an event. So, if we look at the example above, the host has set his starting prices for 20 people. Therefore, half a day would cost €100 for 20 people. If we want to know the price for an event for 25 people, we will have to use the initial price for half a day and then add €10 per additional person (over 20 people), i.e. €100 + 5x€10 = €150.

If you previously defined your pricing as seasonal you will have extra fields to differentiate the starting price for an event (of the number of guests that you have defined) depending on the season.

6. Define your accommodation pricing

Here you can add the average price per room or the price per night for a full privatisation of all the bedrooms.

With this new detailed pricing we can even calculate the price for a weekend (Saturday morning to Sunday Evening) since we could sum up : “Price for a Day” + “Price for an Evening” + “Full price of the accommodation” + “Price for a Day”.

With this new breakdown we expect to make the pricing of your venue a lot more clear and pertinent, so we can help you receive demands that are a better fit for you.

Are you looking to maximize your bookings on Native Spaces and attract clients who are the perfect fit for your venue? In this post, we'll explore five key areas where you can optimize your listing to increase visibility and relevance.

1. Optimized Titles and Text:

When crafting your listing title and description, it's essential to include keywords that potential clients are likely to search for.

For example, if your venue is a luxury villa in Nice, consider a title like "Stunning Luxury Villa in Nice." In the description, mention specific details such as "spacious indoor and outdoor areas," "panoramic views of the French Riviera," and "ideal for intimate gatherings or large-scale celebrations."

By including relevant keywords in your listing title and description, you can increase its visibility and attract more views from clients who are actively searching for venues like yours.

2. Enhancing Visuals:

High-quality images and videos are key to capturing the attention of potential clients. Try to think of what you want to sell to the users you want to target, so you can help them to really project themselves in your space.

For example, it is good to have outdoor pictures to see the surroundings but you want to show the space that is available to celebrate the events. When people organise a wedding or a seminar they usually ask us how the space is divided, if the outdoor spaces are big or adapted to put tables or organise activities etc.

When showing the indoor areas is also good to show both the full space and details that you think that make your space unique. On the one side, you show them the full space so they can understand how it is and on the other side they get to appreciate the more small details that form the charisma and personality of your venue.

Showcase your venue's potential for various events by including images of past weddings, seminars, or product launches held at your space. For instance, include photos of a beautifully decorated ceremony setup in your garden or a corporate networking event in your spacious indoor area. Remember to highlight unique features like architectural details, scenic views, or versatile layout options.

3. Clear Description of Spaces:

Provide potential clients with a clear understanding of your venue's layout and available spaces. For example, if your venue includes a grand ballroom, intimate lounge area, and outdoor terrace, describe each space in detail and mention its capacity and amenities.

Use descriptive language to paint a vivid picture of what clients can expect, such as "elegant ballroom with crystal chandeliers," "cozy lounge area with plush seating," and "expansive terrace overlooking the Mediterranean Sea."

4. Additional Services and Activities:

Offering extra services and activities can make your venue stand out and provide added value to clients. So don’t hesitate to share and explained them in your description.

You could also consider partnering with local vendors to offer catering packages, entertainment options, or wellness activities. For instance, you could include options like "gourmet catering by renowned local chefs," "live music performances or DJ services," or "yoga sessions with certified instructors."

5. Pricing Transparency:

One of the most crucial aspects of optimizing your demands is being transparent about pricing. While rental costs for events can be complex, it's essential to provide as much clarity as possible to potential clients.

Break down the pricing structure and explain what is included in the rental fee, such as venue access, setup and cleanup, and any additional services or amenities. Consider offering package deals or customizable options to accommodate different budget ranges and event needs. By being upfront and transparent about pricing, you can build trust with clients and attract bookings that are the right fit for both parties.

By implementing these optimization strategies, you can enhance your Native Spaces listing and attract more relevant bookings for your venue. Remember to regularly update your listing with fresh content and images to keep it engaging and up-to-date. We hope these tips help you maximize your bookings and elevate your hosting experience on Native Spaces!

💫 How It All Began 💫

MIPIM, the renowned Real Estate Congress, brings together industry professionals, investors, developers, and government representatives to discuss international real estate trends, investment opportunities, and challenges. It serves as a platform for networking, deal-making, and showcasing national real estate markets to attract foreign investment.

This year, the Greek government approached Native Spaces with a mission: to find 2 venues for their events.

🇬🇷 Why The Greek Government Chose Native Spaces? 🇬🇷

When the Greek Government contacted us they had already done some research online of different venues where they could host their events, however they wanted to have the opinion and help from someone that actually knew the area and its restaurants.

They were looking for a restaurant and a private beach where they could host 2 separate cocktails (one more formal and the other one more festive). Here they would showcase Greece's booming real estate market and investment opportunities, while embodying the essence of Greek hospitality and culture.

Additionally, communication was a bit complicated since they didn’t speak French. So having a native speaker helping them make everything a lot easier. Additionally, the team also went in person and took photos and videos for them so they could better understand the distribution of the space.

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

Hilda, the person in charge of organising these two events had some clear criteria of what she was looking for.

For their first event, the standing more formal cocktail, she was looking for a classy and professional restaurant that would serve Mediterranean food. It took a bit of time to find the perfect match, but she ended up choosing this chic restaurant next to la Croisette.

For their second event, she was also sure she wanted a private beach. Finding the space in this case was a lot easier and she was quickly convinced by this lovely space. Since this event was more festive they also asked us to help them find a DJ who could liven up the group, a photograph to capture this very nice evening and some hostesses to welcome the guests.

🎈 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎈

Hilda was thrilled with Native Spaces' impeccable recommendations and support during the whole process of organisation. Both events surpassed expectations, leaving a lasting impression on all attendees. They were happy to have found local support and they are already planning their presence for next year!

_I want to thank you for your support and efficiency! We are happy with the overall results! We wanted to thank you both for the wonderful even we had at the Beach and to tell you that we would be interested to have one next year! - Hilda (_Director Investment Promotion Tourism, Real Estate & Creative industries)

Paris is a city buzzing with exciting events, drawing attention from around the world. For brands, it's a prime opportunity to get noticed and connect with their target audience. With so much happening, it's essential to stand out with unique marketing strategies.

Here are four innovative marketing ideas to create memorable experiences and elevate your brand's visibility:

1. Classic Brand Awareness in a New Dimension:

Elevate your brand's visibility in a unique and engaging way by taking over apartments in Paris for a limited time. Transform these homes into living billboards, showcasing your brand's message and products in an inviting and approachable setting. Create a sense of connection by inviting visitors to experience your brand in a personalized and intimate way. Netflix put their iconic “N” on a rooftop in La Croisette and everyone could see it from the street - it was actually complicated not to spot them!

2. Exclusive Private Dinners with Influencers:

Embark on a journey of culinary excellence and brand connection by hosting private dinners with influential figures in your industry. These intimate gatherings will foster genuine relationships with key opinion leaders, allowing you to showcase your brand's ethos and resonate with their followers. Elevate the experience by showcasing your products in a creative and engaging manner, ensuring a memorable and impactful encounter.

3. Brand Activations in Unexpected Locations:

Step away from the traditional marketing playbook and inject your brand into the vibrant Parisian landscape with unexpected activations. Transform iconic landmarks, hidden gems, or vibrant neighborhoods into captivating brand experiences. Engage with passersby through interactive installations, immersive experiences, or activations that seamlessly blend into the local culture. For example, Glossier created a 1,100-square-feet greenhouse-inspired popup to showcase their products in a setting that offered visitors a unique experience.

Glossier Experiential Pop-up Shop - Image: Dezeen

4. Themed Live Stream Events and Podcasts:

Harness the power of live streaming by hosting interactive events featuring athletes, experts, or influencers. Use city landmarks as the backdrop to captivate your audience. Keep viewers engaged by incorporating polls, questions, and interactive elements into the stream.

By embracing these innovative strategies, brands can capture the excitement and spirit of Paris, creating memorable experiences that resonate with their target audiences and elevate their brand to new heights. Check all of our spaces available in Paris and start preparing your event.

💫 How It All Began 💫

The International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM) congress in Cannes, is the most prestigious luxury travel event in the world. It brings together leading travel professionals to connect, network, and explore new destinations and experiences. The event features a curated selection of premium destinations, hotels, and experiences, and it provides an opportunity to discover the latest trends and innovations in the industry.

In this context, Auberge Resorts, a luxury hospitality company with a portfolio of exquisite properties across the globe, approached Native Spaces with a captivating challenge: to find the perfect venues for three different events in Cannes during this congress. The first event called for an intimate private seated dinner for VIP guests, the second consisted on a networking cocktail, and the third would be a grand cocktail reception for more than 150 attendees.

Auberge Resorts had two main criteria in mind. Firstly, they wanted the venues to be conveniently located near Le Palais des Festivals, ensuring easy access for all attendees. Secondly, they were specifically looking for venues that served local Mediterranean food.

🗺️ Why Auberge Resorts Chose Native Spaces? 🗺️

Native Spaces expertise on helping companies find unique spaces for their side events to the congresses made Auberge Resorts rely on them for this mission. We not only offer the widest selection of unique event spaces in Cannes, but also provide a deep understanding of the local market. Because our team know the spaces and its owners, we can make the best recommendations for each specific demand.

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

Hugo, the Customer Success Manager for Auberge Resorts, embarked on a meticulous search, choosing among our database a selection of venues that aligned with Auberge Resorts' vision for their events.

One of the members of the team (based in London) flew to Cannes and they visited all the different places on one day. None of the venues fitted her needs, however she went back to London knowing that she wanted to celebrate the big cocktail on a private beach.

She was relying a 100% on our team since she was only working with us. So, Hugo had to make a new selection of venues that could match her expectations. Since he had visited all the venues with her, he knew a lot more details about what was she hoping to find.

✨The beginning✨

Within the team at Native Spaces, we take immense pride in sharing an extraordinary journey that recently took us behind the scenes of the Rugby World Cup, alongside the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). This is a tale that commences with a shared passion for rugby, exceptional locales, and the celebration of local culture.

The BBC, an icon in the world of global media, embarked on a mission during the Rugby World Cup: to closely follow the Welsh national rugby team in each city hosting their matches. The objective of this initiative was to provide an immersive and comprehensive coverage of this competition that captures the hearts of rugby enthusiasts worldwide.

At the heart of this adventure, the BBC had a crucial need: to discover unique and iconic locations in each host city, ones that would embody the spirit and identity of these destinations. This is where Native Spaces made its entrance.

🌎Why did the BBC choose Native Spaces?🌎

The answer lies in our expertise in unearthing places that go beyond mere settings; places that tell a story and encapsulate the essence of a city. In this particular instance, the BBC sought a location in Nice to record a podcast, in an interview of Gareth Rhys Owen joined by Alex Cuthbert, Josh Navidi and Nicky Robinson. Highlighting the host city for the Welsh national rugby team.

Nice, a gem on the French Riviera, is a city where history, culture, and beauty seamlessly intertwine to create an unforgettable experience. Vibrantly colored facades, wrought iron balconies, narrow cobbled streets, Belle Époque buildings lining the famous Promenade des Anglais, and stunning sea views make Nice a place of timeless charm.

💚Native Spaces' Response💚

The challenge for Native Spaces was to find the perfect location that would encapsulate this essence of Nice and offer a captivating backdrop for the podcasts. After thorough research, we had the privilege of discovering an apartment with a terrace overlooking the port. This terrace provided a breathtaking panoramic view of the glistening waters of the port under the Mediterranean sun.

We were honored to be a part of this adventure, contributing to the innovative approach of the BBC in showcasing the beauty of each host city during the Rugby World Cup. This experience reiterated the significance of the diversity of places and their impact on storytelling.

🎈The Magic of Native Spaces🎈

For Native Spaces, this collaboration presented an opportunity to showcase how our online platform can play an essential role in promoting the culture, beauty, and authenticity of destinations hosting major events. It underscored our ability to creatively meet the specific needs of our clients, even in demanding and unique contexts.

Overall, this partnership with the BBC has been an exhilarating journey that celebrates the passion for sports, the authenticity of locations, and the creativity of Native Spaces.

✨ How It All Began ✨

In May 2023, Native Spaces received a client request for the ESG Awards event: Environmental, Social, Governmental in Sustainability, by Global Drinks Intel, for the first time in the company's history.

Global Drinks Intel is a digital and print magazine targeting professionals. Based in London, it covers the latest developments and trends in the global beverage industry, providing analysis, commentary, and data.

A challenge full of twists to discover...

✉️ Client request:

Organize an event to reward beverage brands that make the most efforts towards sustainability during the TFWA (Tax Free World Association) event in Cannes, near the Palais des Festivals and within walking distance of the famous #Croisette.

The venue must be able to:

Accommodate a stage, a photo call, and a capacity of 100 to 120 people. Serve drinks from the award-winning companies in cocktails prepared by bartenders capable of creating cocktails dedicated to the sponsored ESG alcohols.

🏆 Why Global Drinks Intel Chose Native Spaces? 🏆

Our role:

Propose venues that meet the client's requirements, satisfy the organizer's needs, and meet all the specified conditions.

After a wide selection, Global Drinks Intel chose a private beach.

😱 However, one month before the scheduled date, the venue was no longer available...

Panic set in for Global Drinks Intel. What solution could we provide in such a short amount of time?

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

Faced with this unforeseen circumstance, Native Spaces reacted at the last minute by finding a location that was even better suited to the client's requirements! This turned out to be the Palais Stephanie Beach, located on the Croisette.

We connected them with our local service providers and to ensure comprehensive event support and to assist the client in this change of situation.

🎈 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎈

On October 2nd, the big day, we accompanied the client before and during the event, providing reassuring support for the organization of her Awards. She expressed her profound gratitude for the close monitoring of her evening, of which she can be proud due to the unmistakable success of this organization.

🏆 We would like to thank each of the participants in this story, which enabled our client to realize her customized event!

✨ How It All Began ✨

Five months before the start of Cannes Lions, Chloé, an event organizer, contacted us with a specific goal: to find the perfect location to host the @Goals House. This gathering brings together activists, thinkers, political leaders, business executives, and renowned entrepreneurs on an international scale, all committed to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Prior to this, Chloé had pre-selected three houses. Her main requirement was a spacious outdoor area near the Croisette, a crucial element for the success of the event. However, two of the initial options were no longer available, posing a significant challenge given the prestige of Cannes Lions.

🌎 Why Goals House Chose Native Spaces? 🌎

The previous year, the event had taken place in Mougins, but the distance from the Palais des Festivals had been problematic. This time, the goal was to get as close as possible to the Palais des Festivals. Additionally, the event required large and adaptable spaces to accommodate up to 150 people simultaneously.

At Native Spaces, our network offers the widest selection of unique event spaces in Cannes, along with a deep understanding of the local market. That's why Goals House turned to us to find a venue that met their expectations.

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

We presented Chloé with 6 to 7 options, but none fully met her criteria, particularly her desire to host a seated dinner for 100 people simultaneously. Unfortunately, the initial proposals didn't align, whether in terms of distance or the size of the spaces. Among the pre-selected venues, one estate generated interest, but the size of the event ultimately rendered this option unsuitable.

Goals House relied on our personalized advice and expertise to receive a list of pros and cons for each option, along with our professional opinion on the remaining choices. After several days of discussions, their choice fell on a villa perched in the hills of Cannes.

This villa not only offered a spacious outdoor area near the Croisette but could also be fully customized to reflect the Goals House's identity.

🎈 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎈

We played an essential role in creating an exceptional experience for Goals House participants during Cannes Lions, all while considering logistical constraints. Guests were able to smoothly attend all conferences and dinners while enjoying Cannes Lions during the day.

The villa was very convenient, and the view was splendid! Thank you, Native Spaces, for the support.

Creating Halloween-themed events can add a unique and spooky twist to your celebrations. Whether it's a birthday party, an after-work gathering, a product launch, or a photoshoot, this celebration offers a plethora of creative opportunities. In this blog post, we'll explore four different Halloween-themed events, each with its own space and set of ideas and inspirations.

🎃 🎉 Halloween Birthday Party:

Hosting a Halloween birthday party can be a thrilling and memorable experience. Here are some ideas to consider:

Costume Theme: Encourage your guests to dress up in their favorite Halloween costumes, or choose a specific theme like classic monsters, movie characters, or historical figures. Decorations: Transform your venue into a haunted house with cobwebs, candles, and eerie lighting. Carved pumpkins, skeletons, and spooky music will set the mood. Activities: Organize traditional Halloween games like apple bobbing, a costume contest, or a scavenger hunt with spooky clues. Menu: Serve Halloween-inspired treats like "eyeball" meatballs, "witches' brew" punch, and a creepy cake or cupcakes. Space: Imagine stepping into a world of decadence and mystery as you celebrate your Halloween birthday at a lavish villa in Antibes. This space exudes the opulence of the Roaring Twenties, making it perfect for a Gatsby-style soirée. The grandeur of the villa, with its sprawling gardens and ornate interiors, provides an ideal backdrop for your themed festivities. Picture your guests in their finest 1920s attire, sipping champagne under the moonlight, and dancing the Charleston. It's a truly enchanting setting where the glamour of the Jazz Age meets the spookiness of Halloween.

👻 💼 After-Work Halloween Gathering:

If you want to celebrate Halloween with your coworkers or friends after a long day at the office, here are some ideas:

✨ How It All Began... ✨

The Torque Rally, a prestigious luxury car event organiser, contacted us because, with only two weeks to go before their flagship event, they were in a hurry to organise a brunch for their drivers and entourage before the start of the rally in Cannes.

🏎️ Why The Torque Rally Chose Native Spaces 🏎️

They needed a venue near Cannes that could accommodate 20 cars on outdoor display, as well as a brunch for 40 people, all in a pleasant setting.

Faced with this demanding requirement and a tight deadline, Torque Rally needed a quick and efficient solution to find the perfect venue. They wanted a space that would not only meet their practical needs, but also create an exceptional ambience in keeping with the prestige of their event.

That's where Native Spaces came in. Our reputation as specialists in unique event venues tailored to each client caught their attention and our responsiveness reassured them.

💚 Native Spaces' Response 💚

In response to Torque Rally's request, we immediately looked for the most appropriate options. We created a list of proposals. Of our 5 options, two venues in particular caught their attention: the Collège International de Cannes and the Park Mougins. Both had the necessary features to accommodate the cars and guests while providing a memorable experience.

🎈 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎈

In the end, Torque Rally chose the Park Mougins, an estate with a number of different areas and an outdoor area surrounded by lush vegetation just outside Cannes.

The luxury cars were laid out in one of the many outdoor areas, while the guests enjoyed brunch in a room overlooking the grounds. Guests had a great time before the start of the rally.

Spending time with family and friends is precious, and there's nothing like the joy of seeing kids have fun safely during private events. Whether it's a birthday party, a neighborhood gathering, or a simple get-together, making your property "kids friendly" can make a huge difference. In this article, we will explore various ideas and tips for creating a welcoming environment for children during your special events.

1. Safety First

Before diving into the playful details, ensure that your space is safe for kids of all ages. Store fragile or dangerous items out of their reach. Cover electrical outlets, secure stairs, and make sure hazard zones are clearly marked. If you have a pool or pond, ensure they are protected with appropriate barriers or safety devices.

2. Create Dedicated Zones

Divide your space into distinct areas for different activities. A play area with toys and a quiet zone for reading or napping are excellent ideas. This allows children to choose what they want to do while avoiding confusion and chaos.

3. Restful and Calm Corner

Not all children will be in constant motion. Set up a calm corner with cushions, blankets, and books for moments when kids want to rest or relax. This gives parents and children a moment of peace amidst the excitement of the event.

4. Child-Friendly Restrooms and Amenities

If your event lasts for several hours, make sure you have child-friendly restrooms and amenities, such as toilet seat reducers and sinks at their height. This will make things easier for both parents and children.

If you own a place and you are looking to make it available for events, do not hesitate to register on our platform. We have a dedicated team to accompany you throughout the process and help you optimize your visibility to attract potential customers.

✨How It All Began...✨

Dior is an internationally renowned brand in the fashion and beauty industry. When they contacted us, their project was to promote their line of perfumes. For this purpose, they aimed to organize an exclusive event that would showcase their image of luxury and elegance.

☀️Why Did Dior Choose Native Spaces?☀️

We possess the largest network of unique event spaces in Cannes, along with an in-depth knowledge of the local market. That's why Dior turned to us when they needed to find a venue to bring together 20 top-tier influencers for a sneak peek presentation of the products from their new perfume line.

Dior required an exceptional venue, with a spacious outdoor area to accommodate the 20 influencers and allow them to showcase the products. The venue also needed to offer lunch facilities, as well as a swimming pool for an afternoon of relaxation and entertainment. It had to reflect the luxury and prestige associated with the Dior brand.

💚How Did Native Spaces Respond?💚

Our team carefully selected a variety of venues that met Dior's requirements. We presented a range of options, from lavish villas to exclusive cruise boats. Each location had its own unique appeal, from panoramic sea views to peaceful surroundings in the heart of nature. Among our selection, a villa in the heart of a park classified as a historic monument particularly caught their attention

In the end, Dior chose an exceptional villa nestled within a historically classified park. The villa offered a spacious garden embellished with marble columns and a swimming pool, creating an atmosphere worthy of the brand. This unique location was in perfect harmony with the image of luxury and elegance that Dior wanted to project.

🎈The Magic of Native Spaces...🎈

The event was a resounding success. The 20 influencers were welcomed to this splendid setting with an outdoor yoga class, followed by a gourmet lunch beneath the villa's majestic columns. The afternoon continued around the pool, providing the influencers with an opportunity to unwind while enjoying carefully organized leisure activities.

✨How it all began...✨

Forbes has commissioned Native Spaces to find the perfect venue to host the prestigious event "2023 Forbes World's Most Influential CMOs." This annual event is an awards lunch bringing together the world's most influential CMOs according to Forbes.

☀️Why Forbes chose Native Spaces ?☀️

This year, the growing number of guests made it impossible to hold the event in the usual venues. It was therefore imperative to find a new location that could accommodate all participants in comfort, especially given the summer heat, and provide separate spaces for the cocktail networking, sit-down dining, the awards ceremony and the interviews, all in close proximity to the Palais des Festivals.

💚How did Native Spaces respond?💚

We started researching the options available on our platform. We first considered rooftops, but due to heat concerns, none of these options made the cut. Restaurants turned out to be either too small or too far away.

In the end, we had to turn to places we'd never worked with before. This is how we discovered the grand salon of a famous Croisette hotel. This emblematic venue offered the necessary space to welcome all participants in pleasant conditions. What's more, its central location made it easily accessible for participants.

We also offered them our specialist partners for their printing and decoration needs, as well as audiovisual equipment.

🎈The magic of Native Spaces...🎈

According to Forbes, everyone who attended the World's Most Influential CMOs was enchanted by the venue, which provided the perfect environment for them to connect and celebrate together. The unique and intimate environment helped create an unforgettable event.

It has been a pleasure to work together over the past few months. I can't express how grateful we are to you for helping us successfully navigate Cannes. It was one of the highlights of the year!

How it all began...

Many entrepreneurs and companies, both local and national, are looking for exceptional locations in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur to organize their team building and training days. They want to benefit from an atypical setting conducive to concentration. At Native Spaces, we have the largest network of event venues in the region, and in-depth expertise of the local market.

So, to find a venue for their training weekends, CJD turned to us.

Why did CJD choose Native Spaces?

When CJD approached us, their objective was to find a suitable venue for their monthly two-day training sessions, each of which brought together 12 participants. We were faced with the challenge of creating an enriching experience combining work and a change of scenery.

To meet their specific needs, we had to overcome three main challenges. Firstly, we had to find a venue that would encourage concentration and creativity, while providing a stimulating training environment. Secondly, we had to provide on-site accommodation with separate rooms to ensure the comfort and privacy of each participant. Finally, catering was a crucial aspect, as Gary and his group wanted to concentrate fully on their event without worrying about meals.

How did Native Spaces react?

Rather than proposing a traditional solution, we quickly identified a charming and atypical domain near Nice. This choice proved to be perfectly suited to their needs. It offered an ideal working environment, conducive to concentration and learning, while at the same time providing a real break from the daily grind.

What's more, the venue offered individual rooms for each participant, satisfying their desire for comfort and privacy during their stay. A full catering service (breakfast, lunch and dinner) was also available on site, enabling the group to enjoy their training to the full without worrying about the logistical aspects.

The magic of Native Spaces...

The group of entrepreneurs was enchanted by the domaine, which offered them the ideal environment to collaborate, connect and celebrate together.

"A successful training course in a crazy setting, which gave us a rewarding and unforgettable experience. Everyone was absolutely delighted."

Every host who offers their space for events must provide more than just a venue: they offer an experience. It's a subtle blend of ambiance, amenities, and service. Among all these elements, cleanliness is one of the most important aspects that can make or break your guests' experience. In this article, we focus on why and how to ensure impeccable cleanliness to make your guests' experience unforgettable.

1. The Garden

When preparing your outdoor space, consider the first impression your guests will have. Think about maintaining your lawn by mowing it regularly and ensuring the health of your plants. The pathways should be clear and clean. It's also important to remove dead leaves, fallen branches, and weeds, as well as trim the shrubs. If you have pets, clean up after them to avoid unpleasant surprises for your guests. By maintaining a clean and well-groomed garden, you will create an atmosphere conducive to relaxation and appreciation of the environment by your guests.

2. The Pool

If you have a pool, pay special attention to the cleanliness of the water. Make sure it is clear and free of floating debris. The pool edges and surrounding areas should also be clean and well-maintained. By keeping a clean pool, you will not only ensure the health and safety of the users but also enhance the sense of luxury.

3. The Bathrooms

When organizing your event, make sure the bathrooms are clean and welcoming for your guests. Regularly clean and disinfect the sinks, mirrors, toilets, and floors. Also, remember to empty the trash cans and pay special attention to the odor of the bathrooms. By ensuring the cleanliness of this space, you demonstrate the respect you have for your guests.

4. The Living Space

The living space is often the heart of your event. Make sure it is clean and well-organized. Take the time to dust the furniture, clean the floors, and arrange the cushions in an aesthetic manner. Don't forget to pay attention to high-traffic areas such as entrances to keep them clean and welcoming. A clean living room will create a pleasant and warm atmosphere, allowing your guests to feel comfortable.

5. The Bedding

If you provide accommodation, it is essential to ensure the cleanliness of the bedding. Make sure the sheets, pillows, and blankets are freshly washed and spotless. Vacuum the mattresses and dust the headboards. By providing clean and fresh bedding, you will ensure your guests a good night's sleep and a feeling of well-being.

In conclusion, the cleanliness of your space is not just a matter of hygiene, it is also a matter of hospitality. It demonstrates your attention to detail and your commitment to creating a memorable experience for your guests. By providing an impeccable space, you give your guests the freedom to focus on what matters most: enjoying the event.

However, if you're looking for villa-style venues with beautiful views, you'll need to move slightly further uptown in Cannes.

Determine who you want to invite to your event and create a guest list. Consider reaching out to other attendees you've met or would like to meet, as well as leaders or influencers in your industry.

4. Plan the details

Now it's time to start planning the details of your event. This includes selecting a theme, managing catering and entertainment, and creating invitations or marketing materials. Native Spaces has an extensive network of providers in the area to help you with this stage of the organization.

Cannes hosts several annual professional events such as ILTM, MIPIM, Cannes Film Festival, MIPTV, Tax Free World Exhibition, etc. We rent many venues for networking parties, VIP events and private dinners during these conventions.

We help many clients find venues for their wedding, ranging from small weddings to large weddings with hundreds of guests. Outdoor spaces, villas and castles are often the most requested for these types of events.

From children's birthdays to 60th birthday celebrations, birthdays are also popular on our platform. These clients are often looking for unique spaces to mark the occasion and create unforgettable memories.

4. Seminars and offsites

We also collaborate with local or national companies who are looking for unique venues for their business events.

These important companies, whether national or international, are looking for extraordinary and unique locations for their photo shoot or filming, offering very specific characteristics. They prefer breathtaking panoramic views of the sea, terraced gardens or stone houses with a breathtaking view of the vineyards. For them, it is essential to find places that will give life and meaning to their images.

✨How it all began …✨

Cannes is a city where many congresses take place throughout the year (MIPIM, Cannes Film Festival, Lions, MIPCOM, Tax Free, ILTM...) with visitors coming from different countries. At Native Spaces, we boast the most extensive network of unique event spaces in Cannes, along with a deep understanding of the local market.

That's why Hollis turned to us when it came to finding a venue to host their team and clients.

☀️Why Hollis chose Native Spaces?☀️

Hollis needed a base where they could host their team and clients, and also organize two formal events. However, finding a private and atypical space that was within walking distance of the Palais and had a wow factor proved to be quite a challenge.

Native Spaces was the partner of choice to meet their needs thanks to our support, our network of out-of-market venues and our numerous contacts.

💚**How did Native Spaces respond ?**💚

Hollis decided to book the Funky Rooftop for their MIPIM side event. This space was exactly what Hollis was looking for - a private and atypical space that boasted stunning views of Cannes. It was conveniently located within walking distance of the Palais, which made it easy for Hollis' team and clients to attend MIPIM event.

Native Spaces also took care of all the other services that Hollis required, including catering, presentation and sound equipment, decoration, and even yoga sessions to give them a good and fresh start to a productive day.

And the little plus ? The Hollis flags fluttering in the air could be spotted from the Croisette. This made it easy for guests to find the space, even though it was meant to be a secret and private location.

🎈**The Native Spaces magic…**🎈

The Hollis team and clients were thrilled with the Funky Rooftop, which provided them with the perfect environment to work, connect, and celebrate together. The unique and very private environment enabled them to forge stronger connections with their clients and team members in a relaxed and informal setting.

"Our team loved the rooftop. The event was great. We are keen to book again for next year MIPIM!" - S0phie, Events manager, Hollis Global

This will help travelers find your listing when they search on the platform.

3. Take good quality photos

Taking good quality photos is essential to improving the quality of your listing. Photos are often the first thing people look at when looking to buy something online, so it's important to make sure they are attractive and of good quality.

When adding photos to your space, it's important to accompany them with appropriate titles to make them more accessible and understandable to customers. Titles help identify and describe the content of each image.

To learn more about how to take quality photos, we invite you to read our dedicated article on this topic by clicking here.

4. Offer competitive rates.

You should not overprice your ad on Native Spaces. This can have a negative impact on your ability to find interested potential tenants.

Renters do extensive research on rental prices in a given area and can easily spot listings that are significantly more expensive than the market norm.

It is therefore necessary to thoroughly research the market prices in your area and get a fair and competitive estimate for your listing.

It is also very important to provide as much information as possible about the different prices of the services you offer (daily rates, sleeping accommodations, catering...) in order to allow potential tenants to easily understand the costs associated with the rental. By providing accurate and complete pricing details, you will encourage renters to rent your space and build trust.

5. Respond quickly to travelers' requests

Travelers appreciate landlords who respond quickly to their requests. Make sure to check your platform messages regularly and respond as soon as possible. This shows travelers that you are available and that you take their request seriously.

6. Ask for reviews and ratings.

Reviews are important to see what went well and what could be improved for future events. Don't be afraid to ask your tenants for feedback via your Native Spaces messenger and remind them that their opinion is important to you.

By applying these practical tips, you can increase the number of rentals on your Native Spaces listing and attract more travelers to your property. Be sure to stay on top of things and adjust your listing based on traveler feedback to further enhance your experience on the platform.

✨ How it all began...✨

The most glamorous destination on the French Riviera, Cannes welcomes the crème de la crème of the luxury travel industry every December. The Palais des Festivals, on the Croisette, becomes the setting for the International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM). Visitors are numerous and come from many different countries.

Thanks to its knowledge of the Cannes market for extraordinary places, Native Spaces accompanies them in the search and reservation of adequate spaces for the events they wish to organize on the fringe of the congress.

This is why the famous beach club chain Nikki Beach turned to us when it came to finding a place to host its Spanish team and make them live a moment out of time.

🍹 Why Nikki Beach chose Native Spaces 🍹

Finding the perfect venue for a trade show side event can be a daunting task, especially when you don't know where to start.

When the Marketing Director of Nikki Beach Spain contacted us, she was looking for a great venue to house her team, but also to host a networking dinner during the International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM).

Thanks to its support program and its network of contacts and unique locations, Native Spaces was the partner of choice to meet their needs.

💚 How Native Spaces responded 💚

To meet their needs, which combined a space close to the Croissette to accommodate each member of the Nikki Beach team and the organization of a dinner for 50 people and their own caterer, we offered them a selection of available spaces including a loft previously spotted on our social networks by the organizer of the event.

Their final choice was without hesitation this 300 m² Cannois loft close to the Croisette, which met all their requirements: 3 bedrooms with separate beds and a large open living room to accommodate a sit-down dinner for 50 people.

🎈 The Magic of Native Spaces 🎈

Native Spaces allowed Nikki Beach Spain members to find a convenient and unique location to hold their event in conjunction with ILTM.

The Nikki Beach Spain team was able to spend four days of quality time on the French Riviera and give their guests a unique experience.

MIPTV is an annual international market for purchasing the rights to broadcast television programs. It is held in Cannes, France every April and attracts thousands of participants from all over the world.

Producers pitch new program ideas, formats, and finished TV shows in all genres including drama, reality TV, comedy, animation, and documentaries. There are opportunities to discover fresh content from every region.

Networking and Partnerships

In addition to content deals, MIPTV facilitates networking and partnerships across the global TV industry. Executives meet to discuss co-production opportunities, platform partnerships, and other collaborative business deals. The event includes conferences, awards shows, receptions, and parties aimed at bringing people together and forging new relationships.

Analyzing Trends

MIPTV is also an important event for analyzing trends in television and digital media. Industry experts discuss the latest viewing habits, the rise of streaming services, social media strategies, and other factors shaping the future of entertainment.

There is also a move towards more targeted content as streamers gain data on viewer preferences. These shifts pose challenges for MIPTV but also open up new opportunities. The event may serve as a meeting place for platforms and producers to broker deals. It can also be a forum for discussing strategy around data-driven content creation and more personalized viewing experiences. While the traditional broadcast model is under threat, television itself is thriving. MIPTV will likely remain an essential gathering place for the industry, though its purpose may change to reflect new trends. The increasing role of streamers and data in television will be major topics of discussion at MIPTV for years to come. The event is well positioned to adapt to changes in the industry and provide value in this fast-evolving media landscape. MIPTV will continue to connect people, inspire new ideas, and offer insight into the future of global entertainment.

In short, MIPTV is a major marketplace for the global television industry. It serves as a platform for discovering new content, networking, and gaining a better understanding of trends in media and entertainment. The event has been instrumental in facilitating international business deals and partnerships that continue to shape the future of television.

🎙️ Tell us about yourself …

I am a life and career coach. I grew up mainly in Paris, but my family is from Nice. I worked most of the time in England, in London. And before I was a coach, I worked in finance, aviation and private banking. You can check my villa here.

🎈 Why Native Spaces?

Native Spaces was a pretty natural choice because firstly, it's a local start-up. And we like to develop, but also work with local partners. And the second point is that I called and got you on the phone right away. There was a lot of discussion about how we could promote the space.

🏡 What do you expect from your experience as a host?

We realised that there weren't many options in the area. And for us, what's most important is to offer a space where people can really develop their creativity and connect within the team. We are not very far from Monaco, but at the same time we are in the middle of nature, it's very quiet. And we have a lot of activities available to break up the work sessions. There's the swimming pool, table football, petanque, sauna, darts and lots of other things.

💚 What does being a host mean to you?

For me, being a host is, in a way, participating in the culture of nomadism at work. It's a part of our culture that is very important. And we like to entertain, so it was a very natural choice.

🤔 What is the difference between Native Spaces and other platforms?

Native Spaces is a local partner. It has a human approach because you really have someone on the phone who you can ask questions to. We are not just seen as a space that fits into a predefined framework of what people are looking for.

✨ Advice for future hosts?

What I find interesting is that today there is a real paradigm shift in the world of work. There is more and more demand for corporate events in atypical spaces like mine and many others. Everyone can do it and is legitimate to offer something different. And what's really important is to want to entertain in your space.

✨ How it all started…✨

One of the most important moments in a couple's life is surely the organisation of their wedding. The reception venue is essential as it will be associated with all the memories of the wedding. It is therefore essential that the couple feels comfortable there and that the atmosphere is pleasant for them and their guests.

Native Spaces assists couples in finding the ideal venue to celebrate their love thanks to its knowledge of the event market, both for the unusual venues on the French Riviera and for the quality service providers working there.

That's why Lauren came to us when she needed to find a venue to host her loved ones the day after her wedding.

🛥️ Why Lauren chose Native Spaces 🛥️

Lauren's plan from England was to gather her closest family and friends to continue celebrating her wedding the day after the ceremony before everyone flew back to England.

When the bride contacted us, she was looking for an unconventional, relaxing space in Cannes where she could gather her and her husband's loved ones.

Lauren chose to go through Native Spaces, attracted by its network of unusual venues for festive events.

💚 How did Native Spaces respond? 💚

Native Spaces first asked Lauren to list all of her expectations and her idea of how the day would go.

We suggested a number of venues but she quickly decided on a unique Catamaran for a sunny day's cruise.

We then helped her to find the additional services such as the caterer or the DJ on the boat.

🎈 The Native Spaces Magic 🎈

The Native Spaces team allowed the newlyweds to enjoy a magical day on a boat where they could enjoy music and food with their guests.

✨ How it all started… ✨

Every year in December, the Palais des Festivals in Cannes becomes the venue for the ILTM show, attracting visitors from around the world. It is a must-attend opportunity for travel specialists, with high-end buyers and local and international suppliers all present to network and create new partnership opportunities.

Native Spaces helps them find the perfect space for their event, drawing on our expertise in the Cannes market and our network of service providers.

Four Seasons came to us because of our knowledge of the market, both for the unusual venues and the quality service providers.

🌸 Why Four Seasons chose Native Spaces? 🌸

When Four Seasons approached us, they were looking for a venue for a marketing event during ILTM, and needed a space that could accommodate over 200 people and could be customised with a jungle and floral theme.

We offered them a selection of different options to suit their requirements, ranging from a completely empty space in an industrial style to modern villas or even a nightclub on the roof of the Palais. Native Spaces' support program and network of contacts and unique venues in Cannes made it the partner of choice to meet their needs.

💚 How did Native Spaces respond? 💚

The first venue chosen by the organiser before contacting us did not fit her project. Of the various venue options that our team presented to Four Seasons, their favourite was a villa that was a little different from what they had in mind. We quickly arranged a tour of a villa with two swimming pools, one on the roof, and an empty 250m² room that they could transform into an event space.

We also facilitated their interaction with the villa manager so they could answer questions from the Four Seasons marketing team and have a less stressful experience.

🎈 The magic of Native Spaces... 🎈

The Native Spaces team managed to find an unconventional venue. The villa served several purposes, housing the Four Seasons team, private service providers and hosting a press event with 50 journalists. Most importantly, it was hired to host the event that allowed them to showcase their brand with a flower-themed celebration. With the help of service providers, the venue was transformed into a paradise of pink flowers, creating an enchanting atmosphere throughout the villa.

🎙️ Tell us about you …

My name is Jonathan Morris and I am American. I’ve been living in France for 31 years. You can check my villa here.

🎈 Where have you heard about Native Spaces?

I first heard of Native Spaces through the husband of Tanya (who runs Native Spaces) and I liked the fact that it is a local business here, on the Côte d’Azur, I think it is great to work with the locals from the French Riviera.

🏡 Why did you decide to rent your space?

I actually realised for myself that I appreciate my own home when there are people here. My space is the type of place that needs a lot of life.

🍾 What type of events have you already hosted in your house?

I’ve had weddings, 30th birthday parties, 40th birthday parties, and 50th birthday parties. I’ve had wedding anniversaries, baptisms, and business reunions like team-building events.

💚 What did you think it means to be a host?

I used to be a tour guide so I do enjoy entertaining people. So when I welcome you into my home, I don’t just say, come on in and I take off. I do take pleasure in first of all showing off my house because I am very proud of this place. And you know when people talk about people people ? I am a people person.

🤔 Your opinion on Native Spaces?

Very happy. As I mentioned earlier I like the fact that Native Spaces is a local business. I think it inspires confidence as a renter.

✨ Any advice for future hosts?

Do it! Why not? Since I signed up with Native Spaces. I’ve had plenty, plenty of demands. So yes I highly recommend it. Support your local business.

✨ How it all started... ✨

Whether it's for a corporate video, a feature film or a documentary, the importance of a good location should not be underestimated.

Native Spaces assists audiovisual professionals in the organisation of shoots and photo shoots to help them find unusual locations that meet their often very specific specifications.

That's why France's largest production studio for Asian projects, WL Production, turned to us when they needed to find a location for the final episode of one of their flagship series.

🎬 Why did WL Production choose Native Spaces? 🎬

When the WL Production team contacted us, they were looking for a modern space with a sea view that matched their artistic direction.

It also needed to be easily accessible for production trucks and have ample parking.

Native Spaces offered several villas that matched these criteria, demonstrating the richness and originality of the locations on the platform and its ability to understand the needs of a professional film crew.

🚀 How did Native Spaces respond? 🚀

From the selection of locations we offered them, the artistic director opted for a private villa in the Estérel region with a wooded exterior, close to the sea.

A truly enchanting environment for the filming of the latest episode of this famous Indonesian TV series.

The Native Spaces account manager facilitated exchanges with the owner of the villa in order to answer the technical questions of the film crew.

🎈 Native Spaces' Magic 🎈

After a few days of exchange between the company and our hosts, the shooting took place. The villa's rooms were used for make-up and preparation of the actors. The Native Spaces team contacted one of the hotels near the villa and asked to use their large car park for the filming trucks.

The result: a successful shoot in a unique location with a stunning view of the sea and a production team happy to have found a location that suited their needs and constraints.

VERY GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE NATIVE SPACES TEAM AND THE OWNER WHO I MET DURING THE TECHNICAL MEETING ON LOCATION I'M PRETTY SURE I WILL WORK WITH NATIVE SPACES AGAIN

🎙️ Tell us about yourself

I am Samir Chouikha, I live in Cagne-Sur-Mer and I have been renting my house for five years.

📢 Where did you hear about Native Spaces?

First of all, I heard about Native Spaces on the internet, I had seen advertisements on social networks, then on Google by typing "pool rental" and by chance, I was contacted by the Native Spaces team. I liked the pitch and I thought why not rent out my outdoor space by quickly registering via their online platform.

🏡 Why did you decide to rent your space?

I decided to rent out my outdoor space because I saw that there was a potential to organise events such as birthdays, baptisms and even photo shoots. I'm very proud of my venue, it's pretty great for events. There's a lot of greenery and a pool available. So I thought, why not me? I have a nice space that can be monetised and I think that's great.

💚 What does being a host mean to you?

For me, it's being a good listener, trying to put everything in place so that your guest has a good time. Because you can rent a beautiful place, but if we are not there, if we are not listening to the customer, I think it can't work.

🎈What do you think of Native Spaces?

My view of Native Spaces is quite positive. The whole team listens to its hosts. There is a strong reactivity. What makes the difference with other online platforms is that Native Spaces goes back to basics, with real people who can be present on site. This is something that we see less and less since everything is done online now and it's true that it feels good.

Check out the full interview here and book Samir's space for your event.

🎙️ Tell us about yourself...

We are originally from Paris, we arrived in the south of France when I was 4 years old and we bought this place in 2002. It was an abandoned agricultural wasteland and it was my aunt who made this place what it is today: a permaculture farm.

🏡 What is the idea behind your space?

The idea is that people can be on the Côte d'Azur, but at the same time outside. To feel completely elsewhere without necessarily going far, to find themselves in another atmosphere. The idea of this place was to be able to gather the whole family in one place and, as a result, we wanted to share this with our clients, our friends and our colleagues. It's a space where we wanted to create a community.

💚 What does being a host mean to you?

Being a host for us means welcoming people and being able to show them how we live in permaculture. To show them that it's going from a city life to a much more rural life. It's being able to introduce people to what we could call the slow life, eating from the garden and living in the middle of nature with less impact while living in great comfort.

🎈 Why Native Spaces?

I think it's because we're a family business now and we didn't necessarily want to be present on a lot of web platforms because we already have our own customers. On the other hand, we wanted to push privatisation and to make our space known for corporate events or yoga retreats for example. Our aim was to give the place a plurality. I think it's also the offer of Native Spaces, which remains quite upmarket and which corresponds well to what we propose here.

If you’re new to the Native Spaces platform and you’re wondering how to prepare your space before hosting your first event, or you’re a long-term host and you’d like a quick reminder of how best to set up your home for bookings, you’ve come to the right place.

Whether you’re renting out your space, as the owner of a venue on the French Riviera, we know that you’ll want to make the best of your property for your guests. So, to ensure that everything runs smoothly during events and that you keep getting bookings, we’ve put together some of our top tips to help you prepare your space for each and every reservation.

First of all, before you start hosting, it’s very important for you to think about what kind of events you want to host at your space. While renting out your villa or apartment may be a great way to make a little extra money when you’re not in residence, you need to be comfortable with the bookings you take which is why Native Spaces gives you complete control over what kind of event types you want to host. If you’d prefer to concentrate on renting your home as a corporate venue only or you’d rather not host larger, noisier events such as weddings or birthday parties, the decision is entirely up to you.

Once you’ve decided exactly which types of events you’d like to host and you’ve received your first booking via the Native Spaces platform, it’s time to get your property rental ready.

To do this we recommend taking a walk through your space and checking off the following items :

Make sure your property is clean and tidy before the event starts.

Choose which rooms you want guests to have access to. If you’d prefer to keep your bedroom private or would rather that nobody goes into your study during an event, you’ll need to lock your doors before the guests arrive.

Rearrange or remove furniture from your living areas to ensure your guests have plenty of space to move around the property comfortably and/or can install features such as DJ booths, podiums or dance floors for use during the event.

Check that any services you have offered to your guests for use during the event including WIFI networks and music or entertainment systems are working properly and all necessary log-ins/passwords are made available to the event organisers.

Ensure that your fire alarms have fresh batteries and are working properly and that the event organiser knows where to find your fire extinguishers in the event of an emergency.

Make sure that service providers such as caterers and waiting staff have access to any areas of the property they will need to use during the event.

Ensure any deliveries can be made easily during the event set-up.

Check any outside living areas in your property and make sure that balconies and terraces are swept clean of leaves and can be accessed by guests during the rental period.

If you have a swimming pool on the property, double check that any security gates can be locked and pool alarms can be turned on when the pool is not in use.

Remove any personal vehicles from your parking area in order to allow your guests to park on the property during the event.

If you have any questions about prepping your space or you’d like to know more about how to become a host and rent out your French Riviera venue for events , you can contact the Native Spaces team here.

🎙️ Tell us about yourself...

I grew up in a family with diverse origins: Malagasy, Hindu, Catalan and English. I have been in love with the south since I was a child and moved there in 2008. I love helping people, which is why I am a nurse.

🏡 And your space?

I wanted to make my villa a place to live and meet people, to share what I love. The funny thing is that everything is intuitive, I don't need to think about what to put, how to put it, or what to associate it with, everything comes spontaneously and naturally.

💚 What does being a host mean to you?

For me, being a host means welcoming people into your home and knowing how to identify the expectations of the people who are going to come to your home. It also means being able to offer them a moment out of time that will allow them to disconnect from everyday life and really recharge their batteries. It means knowing how to observe and feel what your guest needs without asking you.

📣 Where did you heard about Native Spaces?

✨ How it all started... ✨

To boost their creativity and strengthen their ties in order to work together effectively, employees sometimes need to change spaces and find themselves in a new location. Native Spaces assists companies in organizing their corporate events (seminars, off sites, team building) by offering them original venues equipped with all the technological tools necessary for effective meetings (screen, sound, tables and chairs, Wi-Fi, etc.). This is why Capgemini turned to us when it came to finding a venue to host a team of 25 managers from over 15 different countries for a work and team building session.

♠️ Why did Capgemini choose Native Spaces? ♠️

Capgemini was looking for a unique and original space in which to hold a meeting and brainstorming session for 25 people. They also wanted a place that was relaxing and close to the airport to make it easier for their employees to commute. Finally, they wanted to offer their employees the opportunity to spend a good time together and relax around a barbecue after their work session. It was Native Spaces' personalized support, knowledge of the Côte d'Azur and network of local venues and providers that made the difference for Capgemini.

🚀 How did Native Spaces respond? 🚀

In order to meet their needs, which included a work meeting and team building, but also a festive afterwork, we provided them with a list of all the spaces that corresponded to their needs. From this selection, they chose one of our most atypical spaces, inspired by the lifestyle of Gatsby the Magnificent. We also put them in touch with a trusted caterer who concocted a quick and delicious lunch for them and an original and gourmet barbecue for their dinner.

🎈 Native Spaces' Magic 🎈

With the help of Native Spaces, Capgemini organized its team building in an unusual villa. The Capgemini team was able to spend time working together, bonding and relaxing in a fun, warm and festive environment.

"THE VILLA WAS VERY PRACTICAL AS IT HAD DIFFERENT ROOMS FOR WORK SESSIONS. WE ENJOYED SHARING A BARBECUE TOGETHER AND SPENDING TIME RELAXING BY THE POOL".

✨ How it all started... ✨

Native Spaces' primary mission is to help event organisers (both professional and private) find the right space for each of their needs.

The Cannes Lions Congress is a great opportunity for companies to have a good time with their partners.

For this reason, LinkedIn approached us when it came to organising a dinner for 25 people in an original and festive location. The aim of this event: to allow the company executives and some of their clients and partners to experience a different and timeless moment on the sidelines of Cannes Lions.

💼 Why did LinkedIn choose Native Spaces? 💼

We offered them several venues ranging from a private and secret rooftop with a sea view to a wooden yacht that had already been used for the shooting of various films to a luxury villa in the hills above Cannes.

Native Spaces was therefore a natural choice as a partner to meet their needs thanks to its support and its network of original and sometimes off-market locations.

🚀 How did Native Spaces respond? 🚀

Native Spaces took the time to understand LinkedIn's expectations and constraints and their final choice was a secret rooftop in an oriental restaurant on the coast. This venue met all their criteria: originality, completely privatised for the group and offering a quality dinner.

🎈 Native Spaces' Magic 🎈

Thanks to Native Spaces, LinkedIn organised its networking event on a unique and cosy rooftop with a view of the sea and completely privatised during the Cannes Lions congress.

When it comes to organising a corporate or private event, the key to success is planning everything in advance, right down to the very last details. From finding the perfect venue to calculating guest capacity and booking caterers, entertainment and more, defining your event strategy beforehand is essential to making sure that everything runs smoothly on the big day.

To help you start preparing and planning your event well in advance, we’ve put together the ultimate corporate event planning checklist. Whether you’re planning an in-person, a hybrid or a virtual event, our checklist will help you and your team prepare for any eventuality to ensure that your event exceeds guest expectations from start to finish.

PRE-EVENT

1. Define your event strategy:

Before you can even start to think about your budget and venue, you need to think about your event strategy. Issues to think about include defining the type of event and your target audience. From product launches to corporate Christmas parties or team building exercises, you’ll need to focus on how best to make an impact on your guests which will then help you determine all the other aspects of your event.

2. Put a team together:

Once you’ve established your event strategy, you’ll want to start assigning roles to your team to make sure they know exactly who’s supposed to be in charge of marketing, budgeting and catering the event. You could also start thinking about any external staff you’ll need to bring onboard for the day of the event including temporary labourers to set up/take down any rental equipment, caterers, waiting staff, DJs and more.

3. Timeline:

The easiest way to keep your whole team in the loop during the pre-event planning sessions is to draw up a detailed timeline for your project. Start with a loose timeline to give yourself an overall picture then add in key dates for decisions and deliveries to make sure that everyone knows exactly what will be happening during the run-up to the big day.

4. Determine your budget:

Creating a budget for your event beforehand will help you avoid expensive surprises later down the line. When drawing  up your budget you’ll need to think about all the costs associated with setting up the event including:

Venue hire Marketing Decor Sound and entertainment equipment Catering Staff Guest transport Photography and videography HSE equipment (hand gels, antibacterial wipes etc)

Start requesting quotes from your service providers as soon as you can and then you can update and refine your budget once you accept offers to turn your projected budget into an actual budget where you can track  your expenditure and your net income.

5. Theme:

Following on from setting up your budget,  you will also want to pick a cohesive theme for your big day to cover event decor, food, music etc. Depending on the type of event you’re organising you may find it easier to centre the theme around your venue or your brand, so this is one decision you can tweak along the way.

6. Location, location, location

As an event organiser, you know that a great location is key to planning a successful corporate event. If your guests are coming in from overseas, you’ll need a location with easy access to an airport or transportation, while you may also need a full range of activities to keep attendees busy during their stay.

Set against the backdrop of breathtaking landscapes and blessed with a mild sunny climate both the French Riviera and the Provence region are ideally situated for hosting corporate events. With direct access from the Nice or Toulon airports, plus a wide range of creative venues available to rent throughout the year, the South of France is the perfect location to host an unforgettable corporate event.

Take a look at our selection of various spaces for your corporate events:

Magnifique villa on the hills

Magnifique villa at the city

7. Sourcing a venue

Native Spaces can help you organise your events thanks to its knowledge of the events market, both for unusual venues and for quality service providers.

One of the most important decisions you’ll make when planning your corporate event, sourcing your venue will be determined by several factors including:

Number of guests Indoor/outdoor space requirements Style of venue -private or commercial space Venue layout Onsite accommodation and amenities Disabled access Parking Public transport options

By hosting your event in a private property on Native Spaces rather than a commercial venue $, you will be able to rent a unique space which sets the tone for your brand. Offering a wide range of amenities from rooftop terraces to infinity pools, firepits, home cinemas and more, hiring a private villa or apartment for the evening will give your event a more intimate setting whilst impressing your guests with more space to be creative.

Additionally, Native Spaces offers many private spaces available to rent for events also offer accommodation onsite which will ensure that guests coming in from overseas won’t need to book a hotel during their stay.

8. Select a date

Selecting the final date for your event may well be influenced by your choice of venue  but you will also need to take into consideration any other industry events which may be taking place at the same time and any major holidays that occur during the same timeframe as factors like this may make it harder for your guests to attend your event.

9. Staging your event

Now you’ve selected and confirmed your venue, you’ll probably want to start thinking about how you want to stage your event. From planning where you want your guest speakers to stand to setting up breakout rooms or transforming the terrace as an outdoor lounge/cocktail bar, it’s important to think about the flow of the event in order to make sure you create an atmosphere that best reflects your corporate identity.

10. Branding your event

Once you confirm the key factors of where and when to hold your event, it’s time to keep things consistent by branding it. By creating a distinctive look for your event, you can establish your brand and your company message as you start sending out invitations and promotional material to your guests in addition to using your brand for marketing and social media purposes. By building engagement with your attendees during the planning stages, you’re also giving them a great first impression of your event before they even arrive at the venue.

11. Registering your guests

To keep things simple in the event planning stages, we recommend setting up a registration website for guest management. By using a registration site, you can easily keep track of your attendees whilst collecting their contact information and any special requirements they may have during the event. A registration website can also help you send out useful information such as the venue address and event times and will also allow you to update your guests quickly and easily in the event of any last minute changes to the schedule.

12. Logistics

From choosing a catering company to hiring a DJ or band, once the event date is set, you will need to confirm all the logistical details with both your external service providers and the venue itself. Items to take into account include:

Menu options taking into account any special dietary requirements Technical/AV set-up and checks Venue parking Licence agreements Security requirements Accessibility requirements Delivery times

So there you have it, it’s time to take your corporate event to the next level with a little help from our ultimate corporate event planning checklist. For more information or for any questions you might have about finding the perfect venue for your next event, simply reach out to the Native Spaces team here.

✨ How it all started... ✨

Cannes is a city where many congresses take place throughout the year (MIPIM, Cannes Film Festival, Lions, MIPCOM, Tax Free, ILTM...) with visitors coming from different countries. Native Spaces assists them in the organisation of their events in the margins of the congresses thanks to its knowledge of the Cannes market, both in terms of unusual venues and quality service providers.

That's why TBWA Communications Agency turned to us when it came to finding a venue to host the team of its client Adidas and give them an exceptional experience.

👟 Why did Adidas choose Native Spaces? 👟

Organising an event on the fringes of Cannes Lions is not an easy task, especially a few weeks before the start of the congress.

When TBWA approached us, they were looking for a unique space to house the Adidas team and also to host several networking events during the congress. They were also looking for various trusted service providers (catering, transport, etc.) to facilitate their stay in Cannes.

Native Spaces was the partner of choice to meet their needs thanks to its support, its network of out-of-market venues and its numerous contacts.

🚀 How did Native Spaces respond? 🚀

To meet their needs, which combined space for a dozen people and the organisation of a few meetings and round tables as well as lunches and dinners, we made them some proposals from among our available spaces. Their final choice was without hesitation our modern villa in Cannes with a sea view which allowed them to experience the French Riviera in its entirety.

In an effort to take a step towards a more ecological organisation, Adidas and TBWA asked us for alternative transport for their frequent travels during the week. We contacted our electric bike rental partners who were able to provide them with all the necessary equipment. We also put them in touch with a caterer who was able to organise a barbecue and a networking breakfast for them.

🎈 Native Spaces' Magic 🎈

Native Spaces enabled TBWA to find a convenient and unique venue and quality service providers to set up successful events with their clients and partners.

The TBWA and Adidas teams were able to spend quality time together, connecting and hosting meetings and workshops.

Why Choose the French Riviera for your big day

One of the most significant moments in your life as a couple, planning your wedding is also one of the most exciting. A day to bring together your friends and family to celebrate your love for one another, with its glorious sunshine, picture-perfect scenery and wide range of venues available for hire, the French Riviera will be the perfect backdrop to your wedding ceremony.

Whether you live locally and want to celebrate your big day in your neighbourhood or you’re planning a destination wedding and are flying your guests to the sunny South of France for a few days, the French Riviera has wedding venue options to suit all tastes and budgets ranging from restaurants and villas to traditional stone bastides or even a Medieval castle set in its own grounds

Easily accessible by car, train or plane, while you do need to be a resident to get legally married in France, lots of couples choose to have a civil wedding in their home town and then hold a second ceremony on the Riviera. By hiring a wedding venue with accommodation, you could also hold a rehearsal dinner and/or a post-wedding party to turn your destination wedding into a fun getaway for you and your guests.

Tips before booking your venue

To help you choose a wedding space on the Riviera, we have a few tips you might want to consider before booking your venue:

To ensure everything runs smoothly on your big day, we recommend that you take a step back from the planning and work with a local wedding planner. Bringing a wealth of inside knowledge to the table, a wedding planner can not only recommend and liaise with suppliers, they can also oversee the set-up at your wedding venue leaving you free to enjoy the day with your loved ones. Before renting a venue it’s important to consider the way you want the day to unfold. We suggest booking a venue with separate indoor and outdoor spaces for the ceremony, reception and wedding dinner to make sure your guests have plenty of room to mingle. We also recommend hiring a wedding venue with inside space so you can keep the party going after the 22h noise curfew or on the off chance that you pick one of the Riviera’s rare rainy days for your ceremony. With over 300 days of sunshine every year, choosing a wedding venue in the South of France means you don’t have to stick to the summer months for your big day. A year-round destination, why not take advantage of the Riviera’s warm Mediterranean climate and hold your ceremony a little earlier or later in the season to enjoy a larger choice of venues and more advantageous rental rates at your chosen space.

Finding the Perfect Venue:

When it comes to finding your perfect wedding venue, the French Riviera has a fantastic selection of spaces to choose from. Whether you’re dreaming of a boho chic beach wedding, an evening ceremony in a private villa overlooking the Mediterranean or a huge white wedding in the grounds of a fairytale castle, the options are endless.

To help you make your decision, we’ve put together a shortlist of some of our favourite wedding spaces currently available to rent across the Riviera.

✨ How it all started... ✨

In June 2022, Native Spaces, the online marketplace where event organisers can discover and book unique spaces, helped Twitch, the famous interactive live streaming service to organise their side event to the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.

👾 Twitch's Wishlist 👾

Twitch first addressed us what was their event about but also their list of needs via our contact form on our website www.native-spaces.com. They needed a place where they could organise a lunch, some presentations and an offsite during Cannes Lions festival of Creativity. But they also needed catering, audio-visual, and technical service providers.

Thanks to our wide network of service providers, we were able to answer all their needs and they ultimately chose us.

🎈 Native Spaces' Magic 🎈

Our goal these days is to have more and more corporate events organised via our www.native-spaces.com so we were thrilled to accept this really interesting request from Twitch.

We put them in touch with our most trusted service providers and helped them arrange their event.

We successfully ticked all the boxes Twitch needed and their corporate event went amazingly well.

Twitch team even send us flowers and chocolates to the office to thank us for our work and added a small card

1. Title and description: To help you start writing your venue profile, the first thing you need to do is define just who your target audience is.

Take the time to tailor your ad to all types of events that may be held in your space.

2. Photos: Create amazing pictures! Use a mix of close-up and wide shots of all the usable spaces in your venue. If you are lucky enough to have a great view from your house or a swimming pool, showcase it! Focus on outdoor spaces or common indoor spaces.

Here's how to adjust your camera settings, take a photo and tell a story.

Whether you're adding photos for the first time or want to enhance your listing to showcase your space, taking high-quality photos with your smartphone is easier than you think. Let us walk you through each step so you can take your own photos.

The beginning:

Identify the best lighting and prepare your space Charge your smartphone Give yourself at least 1 hour to take photos of each room

Your smartphone settings:

Most smartphones can take great photos. Here are some useful features and how to set them.

1. Activate the grid

Grids can help you position the camera and see if it is straight.

Here's how to enable the grid, depending on your device:

On iPhone: Go to Settings > Camera, then enable the grid on your phone. On Android: Launch the Camera app, then go to Settings, scroll down, then turn on the grid.

2. Turn off the flash

Natural lighting is ideal. Using a flash can make the picture look a little too garish. If your home has windows, take pictures at the brightest time of day. If a room has no windows, turn on the lights to create a pleasant atmosphere.To turn off the flash, open your Camera app, then locate the lightning icon and select Off.

3. Photo resolution

For images to be as clear as possible, they should have a resolution of at least 1024 x 683 pixels. So make sure your photos are saved in high resolution. You can always come back to this page and change your settings once your photo session is over.

The composition of a professional photo :

1. Straight lines

Keep your phone straight and parallel to the ground. To center the main piece of furniture, you may need to raise or lower your hands. As a general rule, the camera should always be placed high enough so that the tops of beds, tables, and countertops are visible. Avoid placing your phone above your head to get a better view or holding it at an angle, which is unflattering and often causes unwanted distortion.

2. The rule of thirds

The rule of thirds is a photography principle that divides an image into thirds horizontally and vertically, creating nine squares and four points of intersection. Use the grid feature of your camera and use the lines to compose your photos.

Place the main subject of the image at the intersection of the grid lines (slightly off center). For example, place your sofa, bed or table at the intersection of the lines. Using the grid and the rule of thirds, the subjects in your photos are sharper and straighter. To avoid cutting out important details, try not to place the main subject in the bottom or top third of the frame.

3. Focusing

Use auto focus so you don't have to adjust it manually. Do not shoot with one hand. Using both hands keeps the camera steady and helps you take a sharp picture. You can also try resting your elbows against your ribs to stabilise your hands.

Tell a story:

Organisers love context and being able to project their expectations so don't forget to highlight notable features and equipment. Capture them by showing their location in relation to the rest of the room.

Here are some examples of amenities you could include in your photos and mention in your captions:

Family-friendly items, such as a high chair or crib. A work space that is computer friendly An outdoor space, such as a patio, garden or balcony, or a pool

Important shots:

Wide shots: are used to give a general view, allowing organizers to get a sense of the size of a space and its potential. Medium shots: work well for taking straight shots from the front, not from a corner of the room. They allow you to get a clear picture of the main elements that make up the room, such as the couch, table or desk. Close-ups: give an idea of the atmosphere of the room. They can be shot horizontally or vertically. When taking these close-ups, pay special attention to what's in the frame: fluff up pillows, hide threads and smooth out sheets.

Your photos should tell a complete story about your space and tell potential organisers what to expect.

Here are some suggestions to keep in mind:

Add enough photos of your venue so your guests know what to expect Include between 2 and 4 photos of each of the accessible rooms Take photos of each room from several angles to give a clear idea of the room. Take close-up shots to emphasise the personality of your home. Clearly highlight the important elements in your photos.

Would you like to organise a party on a boat but don't know where to start? Let Native Spaces help you with some tips to help you plan your event without the clutter.

Boat parties are great for both corporate and private events.

In order to have a wonderful evening, it is essential to plan everything in advance.

Here are 6 essential tips for organising your event on a boat:

1. Set a budget

As with any other event, you need a budget. If you have no idea how much a party can cost, the best way to find out is to go to Native Spaces and see the rates for our water rentals. You can also contact our expert team for free here.

2. The guest list

Predicting the number of people present must be one of your priorities for a smooth organisation. In addition, the budget you have established beforehand will give you an estimate of the number of people you can afford to invite. This will allow you to choose the size of boat that best suits your event.

3. Yacht hunting

The type of boat you choose should be based on your budget and your guest list. The big stars of our fleet are catamarans and yachts and you can decide to hold your event at sea or at the dock depending on what suits you best.

Depending on your budget, check out the options available on Native Spaces and feel free to contact our expert team here.

4. Catering

Next it may be useful to determine the type of food and drinks you will serve to your guests. Not forgetting their allergies and intolerances. Prefer finger foods. But only choose the best. You can find out more about our partners by contacting us here.

5. Activities

Is it a day party? Why not organise a remote control boat race? An evening event? Organise an afterwork cocktail party with presentations, toasts and an aperitif dinner.

6. Be safe

Don't forget you are on a boat! Before you leave, make sure you have enough life jackets and a first aid kit. Check the weather forecast before setting off and take a radio with you to keep an eye out for any changes in the weather.

Give us an introduction about yourself ?

I am a shareholder in a real estate agency with French partners. Our office is in the old town of Nice, on the Cours Saleya. I am in a partnership with French professionals for the legal side of the business. We have 10 different nationalities of agents to maximize the performance of the company, and have good offerings throughout all of the Côte d’Azur. We do Sales, have a premium selection of properties, and also provide relocation consulting. The company offers services for holiday rentals, that’s how they cooperate with Native Spaces. We listed several villas on the platform so they can be rented for events.

How you got started with Native Spaces ? Why did you decide to host events in your property ?

I had been discussing the project with Tanya for a long time before we actually made it happen. I have a consulting background and I strongly believe a company should have a diversified portfolio of services to grow. It also gives opportunities to the company’s clients to generate income through their properties and increase their revenues.

At the end of the day, diversifying your activity by renting a property for events serves the purpose of all parties: your clients and yourself, as a company owner, are happy because you have business coming in. It’s a win-win on both sides.

Your property is very popular on Native Spaces, why do you think that is ?

Every villa has its unique features, if you know the client’s needs you can make a good connection and propose different properties. Villas are popular because unique for shootings, company events, presentations. Very affordable within budget, very clean. Good quality for good price. Have big events.

What is the most common question you receive from clients?

Clients enquire about the noise. Especially for the villas that are situated within a neighborhood. They are worried about police claims. I always tell my clients that they are still responsible for the property during the rental, and that they should maintain good neighborhood practices. As a host for events, you need to be intelligently choosing the events you accept on your property so you can keep with this activity long term.

If not a secret, how much can you make during a typical weekend by renting your house on Native Spaces?

It depends, in the villas that we rent on Native Spaces, 1000 euros for a weekend is the lowest rental price. Price can go up to 10,000 euros for other properties.

What kinds of events have you already hosted?

We usually have lots of family events in the villas: weddings, christenings, engagement parties, holiday celebrations, even retirement parties. On the professional side, mostly board meetings and product presentations.

Please give us some feedback, why Native Spaces? What differentiates us from the other websites? How has your experience been with our team? Are you satisfied with the collaboration?

I really appreciate the open dialogue, I believe it is very beneficial for both sides.

Do you have any advice for someone who wants to be a new Native Spaces host?

My number one advice would be: don’t be scared to rent your place for events! If you arrange your relationship with the event organizers beforehand properly it’s gonna be OK. We have events happening constantly in the properties we manage and and everything is very well managed. Participating in an event is very meaningful. People will remember your property on an emotional level. To the owners who are afraid that events could be going out of hand in their properties (usage of drugs for example) I say: “Be very strict with the lessees!”. If we get a call from the police, their deposit will not be returned. It always does the trick, no one has ever found better discipline than when money is involved!

As the owner of an event space, your aim is to make sure that you connect with as many potential clients as possible online. But with so many venues available to rent, it’s not always easy to stand out from the crowd which is where Native Spaces comes in. We know that one of the best ways of marketing your venue to future guests is by creating an eye-catching on-line profile to let your target audience know just why your space is unique.

THE TITLE:

The title of your venue profile is the first thing your potential clients will see so it needs to catch the eye but it also needs to be short and sweet to optimise your content for SEO purposes. We recommend using about 50-60 characters or 8 words for title tags so you’ll want to briefly mention the main features of your venue while keeping the important key words at the beginning of the title so future guests don’t miss them while browsing.

THE DESCRIPTION:

Once you’ve got your title down, it’s time to create your profile and although it might be tempting to write a novel all about your venue, by keeping it succinct, you actually have much more chance of attracting new customers. Just like an online dating profile, you want to accentuate the positives of your space without repeating the information shown in the venue form so when it comes to creating your profile summary, keeping it concise is definitely the way to go.

THINK ABOUT YOUR AUDIENCE:

To help you start writing your venue profile, the first thing you need to do is define just who your target audience is. If you’re hoping to mainly host weddings and parties, you’ll definitely want to mention things like guest capacity, photo locations, noise guidelines etc but if you’re planning to concentrate on corporate events, your profile should probably mention amenities such as WIFI access and video/audio equipment for use during speeches and presentations etc.

TELL A STORY

With the target audience for your profile in mind, you’ll want to sell your venue by telling future guests the story of the space and its unique position on the market. Start with the elements that set your venue apart from the competition, either because it’s an unconventional space, is set in a sought-after location or because it has an amazing array of amenities that will make the big day memorable for both the host and their guests.

INCLUDE DETAILS

To allow your future customers to project their own ideas onto the space and design the event of their dream, you’ll also want to talk about the venue’s layout. Key features to mention are how your venue is set up, whether there is one big living area or multiple spaces which can be configured according to guest requirements, how many restrooms are onsite and of course which areas will be off-limits to guests during the event.

Finally to round off your profile, you’ll need to describe the venue’s various practical elements to help future guests and event planners decide whether your space is suitable for their event. Useful information to mention includes the venue location, how to access the property, whether you have onsite parking for guests, guest capacity both indoors and out plus a quick outline of any services or amenities you provide during events.

While you only get one chance to make a first impression, we believe that there’s no better way to attract new customers than with a stand-out venue title and profile. To find out more about how to put together the perfect title and summary for your space or to chat with the Native Spaces team about how best to optimise your venue profile, simply click here to contact us today.

Lights, Camera, Action

While photo and movie shoots may look glamorous from the outside, here at Native Spaces we know that they also require a lot of prep and planning. From booking the perfect venue to casting actors and models, setting up equipment and keeping everybody on schedule as much as possible, there are lots of factors to consider to make sure everything runs smoothly once you get on set.

1. FIND THE RIGHT VENUE

When it comes to creating a fabulous shoot, most directors would agree that the first thing to consider is finding just the right venue. A versatile location for film and photo productions thanks to its captivating scenery and that magical golden light you find only in the South of France, the French Riviera offers a diverse range of venues ranging from Belle Epoque mansions to California-style villas, art galleries, apartments, lofts, art studios and more.

Easily accessible by plane, train and car, the French Riviera is just a couple of hours away from most major European cities making it easy to bring your production crew and equipment over when filming. And whether you’re looking for a venue which offers multiple areas for filming or you need a space with lots of additional room to set up costume, make-up and catering services, we’re here to help.

2. EXTRA SERVICES

If you’re working with a large production company, when booking your shoot space you’ll also need to think about onsite logistics. From providing transportation to and from the venue to organising onsite parking for your crew or even finding a local company to provide catering services during the shoot, we always recommend checking out the amenities on offer at your chosen venue before making a reservation.

3. THINK OF THE TYPE VENUE

Finding the perfect venue for your production can also help you develop a concept for your shoot. Whether you’re looking for a traditional stone villa for a romantic portrait session in the countryside, a classic hotel for a 1950’s-inspired photoshoot or a contemporary loft space in the heart of the city as the backdrop to a movie with an urban glamour theme, the French Riviera has got you covered.

3. TRY NATIVE SPACES

With so many elements to organise, we firmly believe that flexibility is key to organising a successful photo or movie shoot. By booking your venue through the Native Spaces website, you can message the host via our online chat to check the details of your shoot and send them any special requests you might have to ensure that your shoot goes as smoothly as possible once you’re on location.

With more and more companies focusing on their environmental impact and their corporate sustainability goals, plus the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, over the last 2 years a shift has taken place within the events industry. Instead of organising large-scale events in exotic locations, companies and individuals are increasingly choosing a more sustainable model by holding smaller or hybrid events and hiring local venues to reduce both their carbon footprint and that of their guests.

A fantastic way to improve your environmental impact, when it comes to organising an event, there are lots of advantages to going green. By making sustainability your priority, you can also make meaningful changes that will help keep your costs down whilst creating a memorable experience for your guests.. From choosing to make your event paperless, upcycling stands/decorations or renting a dance floor which uses human movement as a source of kinetic energy to power your lighting system, going green can help reduce your environmental impact in addition to having a positive effect on your budget.

When planning a eco-friendly event, finding sustainable service providers is key to ensuring your event has the smallest carbon footprint possible. One of the biggest problems faced by organisers is how to reduce waste without reducing your business impact. Traditionally, corporate events involve multiple single-use materials including invitations, menus, flyers, posters, plastic cups etc. However, with a little creative thinking, it’s easy to cut down on waste while still impressing your clients. Here are just a few of our sustainable ideas to get you started when planning your next event:

1. Go Digital

Instead of sending out endless invitations, presentations and information sheets when organising your event, why not go digital instead. By creating an event website or app you can send out invitations, give guests up-to-date directions to the venue, email event tickets and even create a QR code to allow your guests to use contactless check in on the big day, all at the touch of a button.

2. Shop Locally

By renting a local venue for your event, you’ll not only help your guests to reduce their carbon footprint, you’ll also be able to cut down on shipping and transportation costs by working with local suppliers. With lots of fantastic catering, decoration and entertainment options available locally, you can cut down on waste while helping your local community.

3. Ditch the Goody Bag

While giving your guests a pen, keyring or mouse mat during an event was very popular a few years ago, the times they are a-changing and these days it’s all about the virtual goody bag. Instead of handing out more single-use plastic, why not give out gift cards or discount codes for your products or e-tickets to your next event instead to make sure you keep your guests coming back for more.

4. Choose a Green Venue

One of the easiest ways to make sure your event has the lowest environmental impact possible is to check out factors including whether they offer recycling programmes, use compostable or recycled materials, use solar energy or offer any energy savings or water efficiency practices.

5. Use Sustainable Transport

To cut down on your carbon footprint even further, it’s important to make sure your venue is as accessible as possible to your guests. By renting a venue in a large city that’s easily walkable or has a great public transport system, you’ll ensure your guests can make their way to the event as sustainably as possible. Another way to make your event more eco-friendly is to provide your guests with a shuttle service to encourage them to share travel arrangements as much as possible.

NATIVE SPACES CAN HELP YOU

While it might not be possible to achieve zero waste during your event just yet, reducing your environmental impact is definitely a great place to start. To make it easier for you to find and rent a green venue, Native Spaces has now added a handy sustainable spaces filter to our website. Simply click here to look through our selection of sustainable spaces and to reserve the perfect venue for your next event.

To get you started, here are just a few of our green venues available to rent in the French Riviera and Provence :

Please, tell us briefly about yourself.

I’m British but have been living on the Côte d’Azur for over 20 years, the first half in a big Art Deco villa in Nice centre which I completely renovated and then when I had my two sons I moved up into the hills in Chateauneuf de Grasse. I was one of the owners of The Clever Kitchen business promoting healthy living, working in Monaco, then I became known for my (mostly unhealthy) cakes. More recently since my sons have now left home I have taken the opportunity to start travelling again and doing some more renovations for friends. I enjoy many sports and can be found sea swimming or running or cycling on most days, especially around Mandelieu.

Tell us something curious or funny about yourself, an anecdote or a hobby?

I took up piano playing in the first lockdown. It was something I had always wanted to try but never had the time for. I’m still persevering but it’s slow progress!

How did you get started with Native Spaces? Why did you decide to host events in your property?

I was actually approached by one of the event organisers after she came to my house by chance. I already rented it out for the odd week over summer and as I was going travelling more it seemed like a good fit.

What does being a host mean to you?

It means welcoming people to a clean, bright, spacious, easy living home where they can relax and enjoy themselves for their celebrations with friends or family.

Your property is very popular on Native Spaces, why do you think that is?

Well my villa isn’t deluxe but it is well designed and comfortable- having two teenage sons made me furnish it simply. One of the big pluses is that it has 4 bath/shower rooms for 5 bedrooms if guests wish to stay overnight. Another plus is the huge flat grassed garden with pool and pétanque and large terraces for al fresco dining. I also have an amazing sound system by the pool which I think is pretty unique. Word of mouth is proving to be a way in which my villa is getting more and more requests.

What kinds of events have you already hosted?

Weekend rentals are very popular usually for celebrating a birthday or maybe just chilling with a group of friends. I have also rented my garden space out for a day for birthdays or christening celebrations.

Please, give us some feedback. Why Native Spaces? What differentiates us from the other websites? What has your experience been with our team?

I love the Native Spaces team! You can chat to them directly and they are friendly and helpful. I also like that I can exchange freely with guests which I can’t do on many other sites. Final point is that I have full control of individual pricing for each event.

Do you have any advice for someone who wants to be a Native Spaces host?

I would chat it through with a couple of seasoned hosts like myself and the Native Spaces team to understand what is involved but then I would say ‘go for it’!
