The company has announced that the official opening of its French flagship restaurant, Zuma Cannes, will be on 15 May 2024.
Zuma Cannes will be the first restaurant to open in the redeveloped Palm Beach, ushering in a new era for the iconic French Riviera destination. Located within the legendary Palm Beach on Pointe Croisette, the restaurant will open in time for the Cannes Film Festival and is set to be a new hotspot for film stars and celebrities alike.
The new restaurant from Zuma embodies this spirit through the natural elements used in its composition, including its iconic rugged fixtures of stone and wood. It leverages the classic, simple and timeless design which has been a constant philosophy for the brand as Zuma has opened in notable locations all around the globe.
Adapting to the local culture, Zuma Cannes boasts a large terrace that encompasses intricate lattice work which blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor, making it one continuous space in the Japanese technique of ‘Shakkei’ which means ‘borrowed landscape.’ Guests enter the venue though a low-ceiling tunnel, a passageway intended to switch their minds from the mundane outside world and enter in both body and consciousness into their new surroundings.
Co-Founder, Rainer Becker said: ‘’Palm Beach in Cannes was the obvious choice for us when choosing our first location in France, it echoes everything we stand for here at Zuma: excellence, quality and a good time!”
