Booking Flash — what to know

Flash runs on the table: front-row daybeds and dinner tables go to those who reserve first, especially through Cannes Film Festival, the Lions and the summer weekends. Open THU, FRI, SAT, midnight to 5am. Dress is smart elegant, and minimums are confirmed on request.

How we book it

Send your date, party size and an indicative budget on WhatsApp and we confirm directly with the venue — usually within the hour in season. Nothing is committed until you approve; if your first choice is full we come back with the closest genuine alternative in Cannes, never a downgrade dressed up.

Getting there & timing

Nice Côte d'Azur and Cannes-Mandelieu handle private arrivals, with the Croisette 20–30 minutes away; helicopters land closer still. Festival fortnight and July–August are the periods to plan around. VIP transport can be arranged around the booking.

About Flash

Flash is a small, discreet cocktail bar with music, hidden behind a door inside Il Grande at Palm Beach on the Pointe Croisette. It opens Thursday to Saturday from midnight to 5am, and a reserved table is the reliable way in.

Booking, the OF.luxury way

One message covers it: date, party size and any preferences. We confirm availability and the day's terms directly with the venue, hold the table in your name, and stay reachable until you are seated. Every booking is subject to the venue's availability and confirmed case by case.

Flash at Palm Beach: what it is and how a night there runs

Flash is not a large club floor. It is a small, discreet bar with music, hidden behind a door inside Il Grande, the Italian restaurant at Palm Beach. The house itself calls it a confidential bar where elegance meets mystery.

Where it is

Palm Beach stands at Place Franklin Roosevelt, on the Pointe Croisette at the far eastern end of the seafront. The building dates from 1928 and reopened after five years of restoration. It now holds a casino, several restaurants and night venues, including Zuma and Medusa. Flash is reached through Il Grande, under the building's seven-metre dome.

The room

The architect Hugo Toro, who also designed Il Grande, dressed it in warm textures. The bar programme centres on agave: tequila and mezcal, and reworked versions of the classic cocktails. DJ sets build through the night, from lounge to livelier, with themed evenings and guest DJs.

Hours

Flash opens on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, from midnight until 5am. Il Grande serves a late dinner beforehand, so the natural sequence is dinner in the restaurant and then through the door. Flash also takes private events.

Arriving

Palm Beach has 200 free parking spaces and a valet service, which makes a late pick-up straightforward. From the central Croisette hotels it is a short drive along the seafront.

Who it suits

A small party that wants a late cocktail bar with good music, rather than a packed dance floor. For a show and a bigger late room in the same complex, Medusa is the choice. For dinner first, Zuma is also at Palm Beach. Guests arriving from Nice can use the Nice to Cannes helicopter.
