Aside from the music, “France Bleu Azur will cover the Cannes Festival and, as every year, will broadcast the ‘Festival Journal’ starting May 12. This daily chronicle, which I will be in charge of for the national network, will offer a broad spectrum of content from these two intense weeks: the competition, the official and parallel selections, the festival’s behind-the-scenes, anecdotes, rumors, interviews with stars or ‘those who make the festival’, photographers, projectionists, directors… enough to inform listeners about this long-awaited event every day at 5:20 AM, then at 8:45, 2:45 PM, and 6:40 PM“, Adrien Mangano, a host on France Bleu Azur, tells us.
Will there not be special live broadcasts from the “Kiosque à Musique” like last year? “Absolutely, from Wednesday, May 12 to Friday, May 14, and from Monday, May 17 to Friday, May 21, from 4:30 PM to 7 PM, Thierry Mesnage will host the radio airwaves. It’s an opportunity to be even closer to our listeners and to highlight the work of the people from the Azure region who are also working for the event, especially with the cooperation of Cannes Cinéphile. It’s also a chance to welcome bands and singers from our department who will offer a showcase from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM“, he responds.
Tell us, it seems the festival will be accessible to the listeners of France Bleu Azur? “Yes, so that the festival is especially one for the people of the Azure region. We are offering ‘a star’s day’ to a couple of listeners. The winner will be the guest of honor of France Bleu Azur on Friday, May 14 to visit the festival’s backstage, walk the red carpet at 10 PM, and end the evening beautifully by dining at the brasserie ‘Le Fouquet’s Cannes’ at the Hotel Majestic.“
Not bad, isn’t it? So, a little advice, turn on your radio or connect to the France Bleu Azur website by clicking this link or on “Bons Baisers de Cannes”. And maybe it will be you who gets to play the star on the Croisette!
