From flowing free bars to expensive goodie bags at the door, Cannes Film Festival has some very impressive invite-only parties for the A-list to let their hair down at.

With Cannes Film Festival in full swing, there’s plenty of parties outside of the official roster that the A-list have been flocking to each night.

And after heading to some on Wednesday night, we’re not surprised they’re a hit with the celebs, or that they are invite only.

TikTok, who are an official sponsor of the festival this year, kicked things off with a party at beachfront bar Copal Beach on Wednesday evening.

But not just anyone could get in, as the beach boulevard was filled with a stretched line of invited guests with TikTok QR codes to secure their place.

If you manage to make it inside the party, you’ll walk out with some impressive goodie bags worth £200. One bag given to guests contained a mountain of products from Fenty Beauty, Rihanna’s makeup and skincare brand. With the brand’s Gloss Bomb lip gloss, worth £19, Diamond Bomb highlighter, worth £38, Hella Thicc mascara, worth £20, Total Clean’R, worth £24, and Fenty Hair The Comeback Kid Damage Repair Treatment, worth £34.

You’re then handed another bag with Sol De Janeiro body mist, worth £24, and the brand’s famous Brazilian Bum Bum cream, worth £48.

But before getting the free gifts, you’re also supplied with free food and drink inside the event – with several bars offering out cocktails, wines, Prosecco and beers.

In the beach area of the event was a food area, where chefs were preparing fresh pasta, barbequed meats and more for party-goers to pick up. While waiters were also walking around offering mini burgers, tacos, dessert boards and more.

In true TiKTok fashion, there were plenty of influencers at this bash, meaning plenty of photo opportunities. From a TikTok bathtub in the corner to a ring-light set up in the centre, this place was filled with Instagram spots.

But TikTok weren’t the only brand hosting invite-only events for the Cannes Film Festival attendees, with the whole boulevard bustling with exclusive events.

A few doors down was the Nespresso beach, with the coffee brand taking over the area for the duration of the festival. While anyone can head down there for a latte and avocado toast in the day, many evenings are reserved for the A-list.

Lucia Beach has also teamed up with Konbini, one of France’s leading digital media platforms, and hosted a welcome bash on Wednesday evening – which featured a free bar of Minuty wine and the Video Club – a space tailored for Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.

While the Carlton Beach Club has also been hosting stars such as Naomi Harris and Julia Garner, who all headed to an invite-only lunch there on Tuesday.
