Cannes normal population is 750,000 but during the film festival it swells 3 times the size. And hotels jack up the price 125% more, no problem for the rich and famous. The famous golden Comiche is the street that runs right in front of the festival and is lined with designer shops and very expensive hotels the stars stay in. Very Chic! And just down the street is an antique outdoor market. Typical European shopping.
