On the Ground

A Local Team,
Built on Experience.

Bulbul is based in Cannes, with more than two years of hands-on experience and expertise at the Cannes Film Festival — premiere PR, video content, event and panel organization, and follow-up. One local contact for your whole week, set up before the lights go down and ready to move fast across every screening, press event and sales meeting.

No juggling five vendors between your premiere, your press outreach and your Marché meetings. Just a crew that knows the Palais des Festivals, works in English and French, and has actually been in the room — for the 80th Cannes Film Festival and every market around it.

PR

Premiere & Red Carpet PR

Press strategy and execution around your premiere — accreditation, talent management, post-screening flow, and targeted outreach across French and international film press.

Marché

Marché du Film Presence

Your presence on the Marché floor turned into a branded, content-friendly setup — booth, meeting space, signage — built for back-to-back sales meetings across the Riviera and Lérins halls.

Events

Panel & Screening Organization

From format to guest list to the room itself, we plan and run panels, screenings and presentations at the Marché du Film for brands and productions — logistics, AV and signage included.

Content

On-Site Content & Video

A crew across premieres, the Marché and the Croisette, capturing photo and video throughout the festival — turned into daily recap reels and press-ready content while the festival is still live.

Meetings

Sales & Acquisition Meeting Prep

Positioning, sales materials and briefing notes for your meetings with distributors and buyers at the Marché, plus a clean way to capture every contact — so nothing lives only on a business card.

Follow-up

Follow-Up & Reporting

The part most teams skip. Media monitoring and coverage reports, automated follow-up for every contact, and edited content delivery — turning twelve days on the Croisette into an actual pipeline.

Screening your film is only half the story — the panel, the presentation, the industry conversation around it is what turns a listing in the catalogue into a room full of the right people. We plan and run panels, screenings and presentations at the Marché du Film for brands and production companies bringing a film to Cannes, handling everything from format and guest list to the room itself, so your slot becomes the one people actually talk about.

Plan

Format & Guest List

We shape the right format for your film — panel, Q&A, industry presentation — and build a guest list of press, buyers and industry voices worth having in the room.

Organize

Room, Schedule & Logistics

Booking the space, scheduling around the Marché’s own programme, moderator briefing, signage and AV — handled end to end, in English and French.

Run & Report

On the Ground, Then a Recap

One point of contact running the event on the day, plus content capture and a coverage report at the end — so you know exactly who was in the room and what it delivered.

How It Works

Before · During · After.

Before

Festival Week Prep

Accreditation, a dedicated digital press kit, targeted pitching to French and international film press, and teaser content announcing your premiere or presence — all sorted before the lights go down.

During

On the Croisette

PR, event and panel organization, content capture across premieres and the Marché du Film floor — plus a local contact who can react fast when your schedule changes mid-festival.

After

Turn It Into Pipeline

Follow-up sequences for every contact, content edited and delivered, and a short recap — so twelve days at the Cannes Film Festival become results, not a folder of business cards.

FAQ

Good to Know.

Yes — and we’re not new to it. We’ve covered the last two editions of the festival on the ground, capturing photo and video across premieres, the Marché du Film and the Croisette, and turning it into daily recap content while the festival is still live.

Yes. Accreditation, talent management, post-screening flow, and targeted outreach to French and international film press — the full arc around a premiere.

Yes. We plan and run the whole thing — format, guest list, room booking, moderator briefing, AV and signage — and manage it on the day, from a Q&A after your screening to a full industry panel.

Yes — Cannes is our operational base, not a postal address. We’re onsite at major Cannes events throughout the year, including two editions of the Cannes Film Festival so far, and work in English and French.

Fast. The 80th Cannes Film Festival runs 11–22 May 2027, so if you’re working on something this week, book the earliest slot and we’ll tell you honestly what’s realistic in the time we have.

That’s often the most valuable part. We set up follow-up sequences for the contacts you collect, deliver edited content after the festival, and send a short recap — so twelve days on the Croisette turn into pipeline instead of a stack of business cards.

Yes. Beyond premiere PR, we work on branding, sales materials and positioning narratives that help films and productions land with international distributors during the Marché du Film and beyond.

Both. That’s useful for French media, local vendors and logistics, and for international press, talent and distributors coming in for the festival.
