EthCC[10], the Ethereum Community Conference, returns to the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes from Monday 12 to Thursday 15 April 2027. The organisers report more than 8,000 attendees, over 500 speakers and more than 200 side events, with around 15,000 people in Cannes during EthCC Week. That last figure is the one that matters for hotels: side events, workshops and team dinners spread across La Croisette, the old town and nearby beach venues, so Cannes rooms near the Palais go quickly once tickets are on sale. EthCC is a separate event from ETHDenver and other Ethereum conferences, and this edition is confirmed for Cannes. Central Cannes is the easiest base for walking to talks and side events, while Antibes, Juan-les-Pins and Nice offer more choice by coastal train. This page shows live hotel rates near the Palais for your dates, so you can compare EthCC hotels in Cannes and book flexible rates.

Where should you eat during EthCC?
Everything in Cannes orbits the Palais des Festivals: the Croisette's grand hotel dining rooms are minutes east, and the old town of Le Suquet - packed with bistros - rises directly behind the old port to the west. During festivals and congresses, reserve every meal in advance.

French haute cuisine
Hôtel Martinez, La Croisette - 10 min walk from the Palais des Festivals
The Croisette's legendary gastronomic address, relaunched under chef Jean Imbert with cinematic flair - the table for the biggest client occasions during MIPIM, Lions or the Film Festival.
Tip: It hosts the Film Festival jury dinner; book far ahead in May.

Provençal grill
Rue Saint-Antoine, Le Suquet - 10 min walk from the Palais
Candlelit stone-walled institution in the old town with a famously simple formula: giant crudité basket, then meats and fish grilled over the open fire.
Tip: There's essentially one set formula - just say yes.

Seafood / oysters
Rue Félix Faure, opposite the old port - 5 min from the Palais
Cannes' famous seafood brasserie, shucking oysters on the terrace since 1953 - grand plateaux de fruits de mer a few steps from the Palais.

Le Suquet
Said to be the oldest restaurant in Cannes (1860) - bouillabaisse, daube and Provençal classics in a rustic old-town dining room.

Snack / pan bagnat
La Pantiero, on the old port - 3 min walk from the Palais
A humble kiosk beside the Palais serving the best pan bagnat (Niçois tuna sandwich) on the coast - the working lunch of choice for festival and congress delegates.
Tip: Grab one and eat on the port wall; done in 15 minutes.

Cafe / Italian brasserie
Square Mérimée, directly opposite the Palais des Festivals
The big terrace facing the Palais - espresso, pizza and people-watching at the epicenter of every Cannes congress. More meeting point than gastronomic destination.

How do you get to EthCC?
From Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (NCE)
- Nice is the main airport for Cannes, roughly 25 km along the coast
- A taxi or private transfer to Cannes usually takes 30-45 minutes, longer on the opening morning and in evening traffic
- Regional TER trains from Nice to Cannes take about 30-40 minutes; Nice Saint-Augustin station is close to the airport
- Express airport coaches also connect the terminals with central Cannes, a lower cost option if you are travelling light
By train or by road
- TGV and other trains from Paris and elsewhere in France stop at Cannes station, a short walk from La Croisette and the Palais
- Coastal TER services connect Cannes with Antibes, Juan-les-Pins and Nice through the day, which is what makes those towns workable bases
- Driving into central Cannes during a big conference is slow and parking is scarce; leave the car at your hotel where you can
How do you get around during EthCC?
Getting to the Palais each day
- From hotels on La Croisette and in central Cannes, walking is the norm and usually quicker than a taxi
- From Antibes, Juan-les-Pins or Nice, the coastal train to Cannes station followed by a short walk avoids most of the road congestion
- Taxis are in high demand at peak times; pre-book transfers for early talks or late side events
- Allow time for security checks and badge collection at the Palais on the first morning
Around Cannes during EthCC Week
- Many side events take place away from the Palais, in hotels, bars and beach venues around central Cannes, mostly within walking distance
- Rue d'Antibes, parallel to La Croisette, is the quickest walking route across the centre when the seafront is busy
- Le Suquet, the old quarter above the port, is a short walk from the Palais and good for quieter dinners
- Spring evenings on the coast can be cool, so bring a layer for waterfront events
Do you need a visa for EthCC?
Visa-free / visa on arrival
- France is in the Schengen Area; EU, EEA and Swiss citizens travel with a passport or national ID card
- Citizens of the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Japan and many other countries can visit Schengen for business for up to 90 days in any 180 day period without a visa
- Non EU travellers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System at the border, with fingerprints and a photo taken on first entry, so allow extra time at passport control
eVisa / visa required
- Nationals of countries such as India, China, South Africa and Türkiye need a Schengen short stay (type C) visa, applied for through France's consulates or their appointed visa centres
- Applications can be lodged up to six months before travel; book an appointment early, as spring is a busy period for French visa centres
- The EthCC FAQ explains how to obtain an invitation letter; include it, your ticket confirmation and an employer letter with your application
Documents to carry
- A passport valid for at least three months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen Area, issued within the last ten years
- Your EthCC ticket confirmation, hotel booking and return travel details, which border officers may ask to see
- If you need a visa, keep copies of your supporting documents and travel insurance in your hand luggage
Entry and visa rules change; check current requirements with the French embassy or consulate, or official EU sources, before you book.
First time at EthCC?
- EthCC tickets are sold in waves and the price rises with each one, so buy your pass and book your hotel at the same time
- The Full Pass covers all four days, catering and the EthCC After Party while capacity lasts
- Plan your side events early; with more than 200 of them across the week, the best ones fill up and some need separate sign up
- Wear comfortable shoes, as you will walk between the Palais, side event venues and the seafront all day
- Bring a charger and a light jacket for long days that run into evening events by the water
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- A hotel within walking distance of the Palais lets you move between talks and side events without relying on taxis
- If central Cannes is full or expensive, Antibes and Juan-les-Pins are a short coastal train ride away
- If you plan to join side events outside the four conference days, add the extra nights when you search, as rooms near the Palais are the first to go
- The organisers link to their own accommodation partner; we are independent and not affiliated with EthCC, and we show a wider range of hotels you book directly with us
