Legendary party host Albane Cleret partners with Sony International on the "ONCE UPON A TIME...IN HOLLYWOOD" Cannes event
CANNES, France, May 30, 2019/PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Albane Cleret is the elegant mastermind behind transforming the rooftop of the 
JW Marriott into the most exclusive space at the Cannes Film Festival. 
Although, it is a combination of three venues; Le Club and La Terrasse by 
Albane. Albane is renowned for orchestrating events that are glamorous, 
exclusive and intimate mostly in Paris. During Cannes she describes her party 
philosophy as "creating a story with an intentional flow" that draws Cannes 
filmmakers and actors nightly to the private club to enjoy its relaxed 
atmosphere after their official festival activities have been completed.

Sony International teamed up with this legendary club doyenne and her team to 
produce the "Once Upon A Time…in Hollywood" after party. The party followed the 
film's world premiere attended by filmmaker Quentin Tarantino and his lead 
actors Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio and Margot Robbie.  Stephane Huard, 
Managing Director of Sony Pictures Releasing France stated: "Albane is a true 
artist who created a legendary party for Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood that 
will forever be remembered as part of Cannes party lore."

Albane is known for her small private parties with high wattage celebrities, 
but for this Cannes event her challenge was to create the same intimate 
atmosphere for a 600 person guest list.

For the first time at the Festival, Albane opened the whole rooftop space for 
one event to create a flow between three unique spaces including a private 
restaurant and terrace, a central party space with a circular bar and bespoke 
private cabanas and a stunning club lounge under the stars with a view of the 
Cannes bay. Major sponsors such as Hennessey, Chanel, Moet, and Breitling 
partnered on the event, with Hennessey creating original cocktails for 
partygoers. Following a seven minute standing ovation at the Palais, a private 
dinner was prepared for Quentin Tarantino, the cast, the producers and Sony 
executives. The dinner was created one of France's leading chefs, lovingly 
referred to as "The French Chef" Cyril Lignac, who has worked alongside 
three-star Michelin chef Alain Passard at Arpege and pastry chef Pierre Herme. 
Sal Ladestro, Executive Vice President of International Marketing for Sony 
said: "We were delighted to partner with Albane who made the party for our 
world premiere of Quentin's film an evening that we will always remember. Her 
creative instincts and international sensibility make her one of the leading 
event specialists in the world and we look forward to partnering up with her 
again in the future."
