TFWA: luxury products and Mika on the menu

TFWA, the annual luxury fair, will kick off next month in Cannes with a number of innovations. The most important is at the site itself, which now features a larger space, the new Golden Village and Marine Croisette areas.

New exhibitors this year include Polaroid Eyewear, Chinese cosmetics brand Herborist, La Martiniquaise rum and Danish jewellery supplier Dyrberg. Each will, needless to say, be bringing stylish products in their suitcases. Amongst the premieres this year will be the new Manon range from Belgian chocolate manufacturer Duc d’O and the unveiling of new retail space for the Caran d’Ache writing supplier (photo).

In other news, Lebanese/British pop star Mika will be performing at the Grand Auditorium as part of the Premium evening, which includes dinner and and après-show party on the beach. But you’ll have to blag yourself onto the guest list for this one as it by invitation only.

TFWA will be held October 17-21 in Cannes. For details, visit TFWA.
