Cannes

Off to Cannes we go! (Well it is my Birthday) The KIFF team will be in Cannes checking out the lastest Shorts and Features on offer and using its charm to attract these entities to Dingle. The Irish Pavillion is a good place to meet up. Send us an email and we can have a coffee together in the sun. Believe me it isn't all parties, but I have to say as far as parties go they know how to do it in Cannes. We will be there to learn from the best.
