Every year for over 50 years, the Bay of Cannes has hosted the prestigious Pyrotechnic Art Festival. This summer, competitors will present pyrotechnic and musical displays in a bid to win the Vestal award. The festival offers unique evenings, illuminated by dazzling fireworks and famous artistic compositions, created by the world’s greatest fireworks experts.

Over six star-studded evenings, these masters of fireworks will combine synchronization, harmony, and creativity to illuminate the Riviera sky. Come and witness this unique experience from the sea. In front of you: 500 meters of maritime pyrotechnic facade, a succession of artistic explosions, and original soundtracks featuring iconic songs!

Please note that the soundtrack played during the fireworks show will also be broadcast on NAUTIZEN boats, for an even more immersive sound and light experience!
For the occasion, the semi-rigid boat rental specialist has created all-inclusive packages: private boat hire, skipper, fuel, and—true to its DNA—a few extra surprises!
