Cannes’ Most Coveted Night: The PJ Party Returns in 2025
Cannes, the global hub of glamour and cinema, is gearing up to host once again a truly unique and quirky experience during the 2025 Festival. The PJ Party, a legendary private soirée, is back to offer stars, directors, producers, and film professionals an unprecedented moment: pure relaxation… in pajamas. A Concept That Breaks the Mold Forget evening gowns, tuxedos, and stiff cocktails. Co-hosted by Maxim Jago and Dave Deborde, the PJ Party shatters the traditional Cannes event codes. Here, the dress code is refreshingly simple and unexpected: silky pajamas, satin kimonos, unicorn slippers, and maximum comfort. Fun is mandatory. More than just a party, this evening represents a breath of fresh air amid a festival often marked by pressure and pretense. The PJ Party is a sanctuary where everyone can be authentic, away from the flashing cameras and expectations. A Secret Location, An Intimate Atmosphere Each year, the venue remains a well-guarded secret, ranging from cozy rooftops to secluded villas perched on the Croisette. For 2025, rumors are swirling, but one thing is certain: invitations are rare, spots are limited, and memories unforgettable. Far from the red carpets, the PJ Party has become a favored place for informal networking. Conversations flow naturally, with project discussions, impromptu script readings, and idea sharing — sometimes in bathrobes, always with good humor. A Symbol of a More Human Cinema Beyond the festive spirit, the PJ Party reflects a significant shift in the film industry. It embodies a freer, more relaxed mindset, placing humanity at the core of exchanges. In this cozy atmosphere, barriers fall, paving the way for fresh creativity and unexpected collaborations. While the festival buzzes with premieres and official galas, the PJ Party remains the confidential rendezvous where the next independent cinema gems are born, wrapped in laughter and the gentle night air of Cannes — all in pajamas.
