The Palais des Festivals et Congres regulations state that all food and drink that is to be consumed on or given away from your stand must be purchased from one of the Official Exhibition Caterers. They will be more than happy to help and advise you on a wide range of options available.  You can also contact the F&B manager at the Palais des Festivals et Congrès de Cannes if you have any questions about your event:

The processing and cooking of food on a exhibition stand is NOT permitted

The above regulations applies to all processed food with the exception of blister-packed or hermetically sealed dry products (pastries, sweets, biscuits, peanuts, etc.), and heat-treated fruit juices or alcoholic beverages. The above can be brought and given for tasting by the exhibitor on their stand. 

If you are offering catering on your stand from an official caterer, it is a compulsory requirement of the venue to complete a catering declaration form.

We all have a duty of care to help and support event industry professionals and here at RX, the safety and wellbeing of everyone onsite is one of our top priorities.  Everyone has a role to play to look out and care for our colleagues and peers and we can all do this by taking the following steps:

• Don’t request or plan for stand designs that can not be safely and comfortably constructed and dismantled during the published time available.
• Provide sufficient amount of onsite crew to reduce long working hours
• Ensure adequate breaks for staff
• Everyone on site should have access to drinking water, catering facilities and rest rooms
• Be kind.  Be considerate

Evacuation or partial evacuation is on the advice of the Venue. Should an emergency occur that necessitates an evacuation, an announcement will be made over the PA system. Exit the building immediately via the nearest exit point and make your way on foot to your closest Assembly Point. Please refrain from using mobile phones at this time.

Whilst at the Assembly Point you will be kept informed of developments. When the emergency has ceased you will either be invited to return to the exhibition to resume normal business or advised to return the next day – in which case you will not be permitted to return to the exhibition to collect vehicles, bags, briefcases etc.

A badging system is in place to ensure all personnel are registered and associated with the show.

During the build up and breakdown period, all contractors must have a contractor wristband.

Whilst every reasonable precaution is taken to ensure the safety and security of personnel and equipment and the premises are patrolled day and night, we cannot accept any responsibility whatsoever for any injury, loss or damage or any consequential losses which may befall your personnel and their property.

Exhibitors are responsible for the security of their goods, please consider how you can secure your products and belongings whilst on-site. We recommend that valuables are not left unattended on your stand and are removed or locked away each evening. This is particularly relevant on the closing evening and throughout the breakdown period. During the day be aware of your space - report anything or anyone suspicious to security. If you are a victim of theft please report it immediately.

If you would like specialist security for your stand, please contact the Official Security Contractor.
