🎈 Le Ballon Rouge Welcomes Kids Back to Cannes from 14-24 May!

Le Ballon Rouge if officially back to offer its family-friendly services and support the work-life balance of those attending this year’s Marché du Film from 14 to 24 May!

Organized by the Marché du Film & The Red Balloon Alliance, Le Ballon Rouge aims to foster a healthier and more balanced work-life dynamic for those working in the industry and has been offering childcare services during the Festival de Cannes and other major film festivals since 2019.

As a parent or guardian attending the Festival, you’ll know just how challenging it can be to balance work and family life during such an event, that’s why we’re thrilled to announce the return of Le Ballon Rouge and its fully supervised daycare center!

Near the Palais, children will benefit from a safe and fun environment to play and learn while you attend the Marché and Festival. Our experienced and trained staff will be on hand to look after children aged 6 months to 12 years old from 10:00-18:00, assuring you that your kids are in good hands.

Le Ballon Rouge is also offering a convenient Baby Lounge inside the Palais des Festivals (14-22 May) for our tiniest visitors, an easier and less invasive access for children and their caregivers entering Festival grounds and FREE badges for the children and their caregivers.

The unique service is possible thanks to the valuable support of CIMA, Cinando, Le Collectif 50/50, the Danish Film Institute, EAVE, Flanders Image, German Films, ICAA, MUBI, Quinzaine des Cinéastes, SEE NL, TorinoFilmLab and Semaine de la Critique, the contribution of Hachette Enfants and Mamie Stella and Childcare Management by Nanny Please.
