Les marches du Palais that have become mythical thanks to the Festival give access to the famous Auditorium Louis Lumière. Photographed by the world to immortalize the stars of the Red Carpet, we gladly take our turn posing for a souvenir photo when the coast is clear.

And while these famous steps are known for their red carpet, it’s entirely possible to customize them to an entirely different specification and thus make any event an exceptional moment.
