On the occasion of the 79th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, Raspoutine takes over FLASH at the legendary Palm Beach Cannes development to deliver one of the most highly anticipated openings on the Croisette.
For twelve nights, the iconic Parisian club will take over FLASH at Palm Beach – a new hidden bar inspired by the golden age of speakeasies – transforming this emblematic Riviera venue into an exclusive residency, envisioned as the new must-visit destination for Cannes nightlife. In this spectacular setting, talents, artists, film industry professionals, and international guests will come together.
Imagined by acclaimed French-Mexican artist-architect Hugo Toro, FLASH unveils the world of Raspoutine, transforming the spirit of the speakeasy into a fully immersive destination. Hidden behind a discreet door within Il Grande – the new Italian restaurant also designed by Toro – FLASH introduces guests to an intimate, transportive setting where every detail has been meticulously crafted.
Noble materials, rich textures, and soft atmospheric lighting define the space, with onyx, hammered copper, and varnished wood layered alongside bespoke elements to create a tactile, cocoon-like environment. Mangrove-inspired carpets, pleated leather banquettes, and integrated lighting further enhance a sense of depth and intrigue, resulting in an atmosphere that is both refined and quietly theatrical.
Conceived as a gradual rise in intensity, the Raspoutine experience blends elegance, music, and nocturnal energy in a setting that is both festive and highly exclusive. Each night, international DJs and guest artists shape a refined sonic identity, true to the DNA of the Parisian club, spanning house, disco, and sophisticated electronic sounds.
Beyond the parties, the venue will also host private events, dinners, and gatherings, offering brands and talents a unique setting both day and night at the heart of Cannes’ vibrant scene.
And this is only the beginning… a new Raspoutine venue is set to open soon in one of the Mediterranean’s most iconic destinations, and will naturally establish itself as one of the summer’s most anticipated hotspots.
