The battle for after-party invites was always fierce at the world’s most glamorous festival, but thanks to social distancing rules it will be even harder than usual to get past the doorman in Cannes this year. “We won’t be able to do just whatever we want,” warned Cannes Film Festival president Pierre Lescure. “We are not going to have a lot of parties and big gatherings that could create difficult consequences.” The parties had already been scaled down in recent years from the festival’s golden age last century, due to the economic downturn and pressure from locals for a bit of peace.

Now the pandemic has really put a downer on things. “It’s our responsibility to everyone – the festival, the town, the participants – that this post-pandemic event goes smoothly,” said Lescure. What that means in real terms is that hangers-on are getting axed from the guest lists.

One of the high points – the gala for US AIDS charity amfAR – is still going ahead, but the number of attendees at this year’s event on July 16 are falling from 900 to 400. The star power will still be in evidence. However, with Alicia Keys performing and Milla Jovovich, Nicole Kidman and Heidi Klum confirmed to attend.
