YDA Afterparty Teams Up with German Beach by Weischer for an Unforgettable Night in Cannes

We are excited to announce that this year, the Young Director Award Ceremony, also known as the YDA Afterparty, will take place in collaboration with German Beach, promising an unforgettable night of networking, conversation, and new acquaintances.

For the past two years, the YDA Afterparty and German Beach have been neighbors in Cannes, sparking the idea for this perfect partnership. On June 20th, at 10:00 pm, the two parties will merge into one delightful event. 

“This collaboration aims to enhance the Cannes experience for our guests by providing additional networking opportunities, encouraging more interesting conversations, and fostering new exciting connections.” said Anke Petersen, YDA Producer.

For the YDA guests the festivities will begin at Le Bénitier Beach in Cannes from 7:30 pm. After 10:00 pm, the party will seamlessly continue at both Le Bénitier and the German O’Key Beach, functioning together as one venue.

Priority entrance to the party will be granted by invitation, and for the rest of our friends, the first come-first served rule will apply.
