International Pajamas of Mystery

“The most sought-after invitation … was to British film director Maxim Jago and producer David DeBorde’s annual Cannes Pyjama Party … “The view was astonishing, and there was a nice easy vibe,” said one guest. “But most importantly, the Champagne didn’t stop. That’s what I expect from a party.” And that’s what we expect from Cannes.”

THE CANNES FILM FESTIVAL
The iconic Cannes Film Festival is the annual centrepiece of the international entertainment industry. Every year 80,000 attendees from across the globe – including power brokers, tastemakers, celebrities, and visionaries of cinema – converge in the South of France for a spectacular 11-days of film premieres, glamorous fashion, and…
the most famous parties in the world!
THE CANNES PAJAMA PARTY
Seasoned filmmakers Maxim Jago and Dave DeBorde had been attending the Cannes Film Festival for years.
Then one fateful festival afternoon…
Maxim and Dave immediately recognized the potential of pajamas! They envisioned an environment where their mentees and students could rub elbows with the elite of international filmmaking, because everybody can be somebody in long pajamas!
Over the last six years, the fête has grown from penthouse flat to sea view villa, and Maxim and Dave found their calling, creating an environment to nurture connections between industry veterans and emerging talents in a fun and relaxed environment. There is only one rule to enter their party...
YOU MUST WEAR LONG PAJAMAS!
