The Inside Scoop On Terrasse By Albane At The 2025 Cannes Film Festival

Forbes09-05-2025
For the first time in the history of La Terrasse by Albane, the exclusive dining experience will be open outside world on Saturday, 24 May at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. Here's what you should know.
If Cannes is the ultimate playground for cinema's glitterati, then La Terrasse by Albane is its most coveted hideaway-a sun-kissed, chic rooftop where film, fashion, and food come together in the most intoxicating way. Returning for its second edition during the 2025 Cannes Film Festival (May 14–24), this exclusive collaboration between Albane Cleret, the Riviera's queen of soirées, and Mauro Colagreco, the visionary three-Michelin-star chef behind Mirazur in Menton, France, is no doubt one of the most coveted reservations of the festival.
Steps from the Palais des Festivals on the Croisette, atop the prestigious JW Marriott Cannes, this temporary address becomes a preferred meetup spot for directors, producers, and the 7th art. Colagreco's cuisine here is a celebration of gastronomy rooted in local terroir and the Mediterranean's biodiversity.

'I'm so glad to renew our collaboration with La Terrasse by Albane, which is a magical bubble where cinema, creativity, and cuisine collide,' says Colagreco. 'There's an incredible energy during the Festival-and being able to share my vision of sustainable, local, plant-forward cuisine in this setting, with people from all over the world, is a true joy.'

Think the Mediterranean's finest: Bocconcino di Bufala Campana paired with Mitron Bakery's live bread—Colagreco's artisan, committed, and sustainable bakery—with a drizzle of olive oil from Huilerie Saint-Michel. Add to that a Ligurian catch of the day served alongside sun-kissed tomatoes, courgettes, and Taggiasche olives. Of course, there's pasta: tortellini with 36-month Parmigiano Reggiano, lemon confit, and Malongo coffee oil. (The French roaster is known for its commitment to fair trade and organic coffee.) Diners can also discover the heritage of Niçois farcis, where summer garden vegetables come together in what's best described as little stuffed vegetables.
If you haven't had the pleasure to dine at Mirazur and see its gardens firsthand, this is your chance to glimpse Colagreco's magical culinary world. 'I created this menu as I tend to my gardens and as we do at Mirazur: listening to nature, following its rhythm and celebrating its gifts with complete creative freedom.'

The setting is equally curated with handcrafted tableware by artist Agnès Sandahl, eco-conscious Cristel cookware, and a standout wine list featuring biodynamic Gérard Bertrand wines and Laurent Perrier champagnes, plus Colagreco's Tempera non-alcoholic blends.
The Gamberoni Rossi carpaccio with citrus fruits from Menton. 'It's one bite that truly embodies the soul of this menu,' he says. 'It's more than a dish, it's a manifesto of flavors. The prawns come from the Ligurian Sea in Italy, a few kilometers from where we cook, and the citrus fruits are grown in the rich terroir of Menton, my hometown." Each dish is a tribute to the richness of the Mediterranean, but as Colagreco notes, this dish is a "pure, raw expression of its brilliance, elegance and strength.'

Act fast! For the first time ever, on May 24th, 2025, this private dining pop-up throws open its doors to the public for an exclusive lunch and dinner, offering a rare chance to indulge in a three-course tasting menu paired with exceptional wines, accompanied by the Riviera's golden glow, of course. In previous years, it's been a members only situation. Tickets start at €220 (or €350 with wine pairings), and reservations open May 13th, 2025 online at Mirazur or by phone at +33 4 92 41 86 86.
For Colagreco, it's not just about food. 'It's about connection, culture, and creating memories,' he says. 'This collaboration with Albane Cleret is instinctive, full of life-just like the Riviera itself.'

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic's agent sparks rumors with LeBron James ‘big plans' tease

The post Nuggets' Nikola Jokic's agent sparks rumors with LeBron James 'big plans' tease appeared first on ClutchPoints. Nikola Jokic has till now been a one-team star. This is despite the fact that modern NBA has seen some major teamups, and some of them have involved names like LeBron James and Kevin Durant. Now 40, James is still looking for that elusive fifth ring, and is at a crossroads with the Los Angeles Lakers. Having taken up his player option for the upcoming season, the Lakers look determined to build around Luka Doncic for the present and the future. Amidst it all, none other than the Serbian Nikola Jokic's agent was seen hanging out with James at a picturesque destination. On Instagram, the Denver Nuggets' superstar longterm agent Miško Ražnatović posted two photographs alongside LeBron James and Maverick Carter on a boat in Saint Tropez. However, the caption elevated a simple vacation post into something far more sinister. 'The summer of 2025 is the perfect time to make big plans for the fall of 2026! @kingjames @mavcarter,' BeoBasket's Raznatovic wrote. LeBron James is set to be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the coming season. The Lakers have shown signs of wanting to move on from The King to instead focus on building around Luka Doncic. With James surely in the twilight of his career, another big move, the last of his career, may be on the cards. Considering the hue and cry surrounding his future, Nikola Jokic's agent seemed well aware of what he was doing with the post's caption. A potential Jokic-LeBron teammate does not only make financial sense considering the Nuggets are expected to have enough cap space in 2026. It will also be a war cry for the rest of the NBA considering two of the greatest players the league has ever seen can potentially team up together. That in itself may force the Nuggets' hand in the future, considering the Lakers look likely to move on and focus on younger players who match Doncic's timeline.

‘Awards Chatter' Live Pod: Stellan Skarsgard on ‘Sentimental Value,' Lars von Trier and Ingmar Bergman

Last Friday, the veteran Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgard reflected on his life, career and latest project — Joachim Trier's Cannes Grand Prize-winning dramedy Sentimental Value, in which Skarsgard plays a veteran filmmaker who has a complicated family life — during a recording of The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast in front of a packed house at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic. The 74-year-old, who was in town to receive the fest's highest honor for an individual, the Crystal Globe for Outstanding Artistic Contribution to World Cinema, had the crowd enraptured and often in stitches. He discussed how he broke into the biz when he was just 16. He dished on colorful collaborators ranging from Ingmar Bergman to David Fincher. And he dissected his varied adventures in art house films (e.g. his five collaborations with Lars von Trier, most notably 1996's Breaking the Waves), studio movies (e.g. installments of the Dune, Mamma Mia!, Pirates of the Caribbean and MCU franchises) and prestige TV (e.g. the 2019 limited series Chernobyl, for which he won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Emmy, and the 2022-2025 drama series Andor).

In it, he is both hilarious and heartbreaking as Gustav Borg, a stubborn Norwegian director who for years neglected family in order to focus on his career, but late in life, after his ex-wife's death, tries, in his own way, to make things right with his two daughters (played by the brilliant Renate Reinsve and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas), while also pursuing what will probably be his last outing as a director, with a Hollywood starlet (a wonderful Elle Fanning) in the leading role.

Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Is Rewriting American Culture — And Boosting The Economy

PARIS, FRANCE - JUNE 24: Beyoncé Knowles / Beyonce wears a cowboy hat, a burgundy faux fur fluff ... More coat on one shoulder, a blue denim shirt, during the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 2026 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on June 24, 2025 in Paris, France. (Photo by) It was a humid night in Houston when Beyoncé Knowles-Carter moved financial markets—a role typically reserved for the Federal Reserve, the president, or Congress. In the 48 hours surrounding her Cowboy Carter Tour stop, the Bayou City raked in more than $50 million in local spending. Hotels and restaurants were booked to capacity. Surge pricing broke ride-share apps. And local boot stores had lines wrapped around the block. No bill was passed. No policy enacted. This boom came courtesy of a Black woman in a cowboy hat, singing and dancing on horseback. The Cowboy Carter Tour, spanning eight cities and 32 stadium shows, is now winding down in Las Vegas. But it has left more than just cowboy boots and hats behind. In every city it touched, the economic glow still lingers. In a time of seismic shifts in the marketplace and the political landscape, Knowles-Carter has become more than a cultural icon—she's an economic force. With Cowboy Carter, the Grammy-winning artist isn't just reclaiming country music's Black historic roots, she's staking a bold claim on American identity itself, all wrapped in the American flag. It's a masterclass in ownership, scarcity, and cultural disruption—with real implications for micro- and macro-economics nationwide. As cities see real economic impact from Beyoncé's presence, cultural economist Thomas Smith argues her tour is a lesson in modern market behavior, civic stimulus, and the future of 'event economics' in divided times. 'Beyonce coming to town gets everyone riled up, and for cities that means folks converge on areas around the stadium and spend bunches of money,' Smith said. 'This makes her concert more than just entertainment, she's an economic event.' LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - FEBRUARY 02: Beyoncé accepts the Best Country Album award for "COWBOY ... More CARTER" onstage during the 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards at Arena on February 02, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor The Recording Academy) While her work has drawn fierce criticism from the same forces intent on dragging America back to a time when artists were expected to sing, dance, and stay silent about politics, Knowles-Carter has transcended the noise. Thanks to a loyal fan base and her unapologetic embrace of every facet of her identity—mother, daughter, Black woman, global citizen, and soundtrack supplier for the resistance—she remains a cultural force. Knowles-Carter's voice became even more pronounced with the 2016 release of Lemonade, her sixth studio album, which featured the single 'Formation.' She shook the culture and electrified her fanbase during the Super Bowl 50 halftime show, where she appeared in a Black Panther–inspired bodysuit with a golden 'X' emblazoned across the top. Her dancers wore Black berets—a symbol of global Black resistance, from the Panthers in the U.S. to Caribbean revolutionaries like Che Guevara and Fidel Castro. Lemonade landed at a moment of national reckoning—after the murder of Trayvon Martin, amid the rise of #MeToo, and during a surge of high-profile police killings of unarmed Black men. That album became a cultural inflection point, giving voice to demands for both social and political change. It also marked a strategic shift: Beyoncé released the visual album exclusively on Tidal, the streaming platform owned by her husband, Jay-Z.

It marked a strategic shift from traditional promotion to surprise drops, using scarcity and precision to meet and shape market demand. More than a response to a cultural moment, Lemonade embodied Knowles-Carter's 'joy-as-resistance' ethos, offering a vibrant counter to a nation that had just elected Donald Trump as its 45th president. While Trump sold grievance and nostalgia for a mythologized 1950s, Knowles-Carter offered a future-facing vision. Still capitalist, yes, but one rooted in diversity, pride, and cultural ownership. Her music, visuals, and merchandise became part of a larger narrative: that joy, style, and identity are not just aesthetic choices, but political acts. Singing about generational wealth, freedom from historical bondage, and the alchemy of turning lemons into lemonade, Knowles-Carter claimed her space as an artist unafraid to challenge, evolve, and expand her audience's worldview. Back on the Cowboy Carter Tour, while promoting music from her second studio album since Lemonade, Knowles-Carter's role in the so-called 'quiet resistance' has been anything but quiet. Leaning into her southern roots and the crucial role of Black Southerners in shaping American culture, the album serves as a reclamation of global Blackness as foundational to country music. According to Francesca T. Royster, author of Black Country Music: Listening For Revolutions, country music originates from a creole musical tradition deeply rooted in African-American styles. 'The banjo, often associated in pop culture as an instrument for white people who live in rural areas, was an African instrument brought here by enslaved people,' Royster says in her book. In 2022, while speaking with Leo Weekly, Royster delved deeply into the history and politics of country music. 'This genre was founded on a kind of logic of segregation,' Royster told Leo Weekly. 'In the 1920s when the genre was kind of invented more or less by talent scouts and record label labels, they were distinguishing hillbilly music as kind of a white music that was meant for white audiences, and 'race' music, you know, blues, rhythm and blues, and jazz for Black audiences.' Reimagining rural America and redefining 'Americanism' beyond the white-centered lens it's so often framed in, the Cowboy Carter tour and album offer audiences a striking new association with the American flag—one draped across the body of a Black woman. The Cowboy Carter Tour's DC stop happened over 4th of July weekend in Landover, MD. While the album isn't explicitly partisan, its iconography subtly reshapes national identity. It points to an America—and a broader Western Hemisphere—built on the backs of Black labor, inspired by Black innovation, and powered by Black ingenuity. When Beyoncé rolled into Houston's NRG Stadium on June 28 and 29, her hometown got more than it bargained and budgeted for. According to Axios, hotels near the stadium hit 79 percent occupancy -- a sharp increase from 61 percent the prior year, OpenTable reported a 43 percent increase in Houston-area reservations over that three-day period compared to the same stretch last year. Beyoncé's economic impact extended well beyond Texas. During her stop in the nation's capital over Fourth of July weekend, restaurants surrounding Northwest Stadium (formerly Fedex Field) in Landover, Maryland saw nightly profit spikes of $15,000 to $20,000. All gains that Tom Smith described as beneficial for local economics. 'You gotta have the boots, you gotta have the shirt, you gotta have the hat,' said Smith, an economist at Emory University. 'You gotta have all the things. It's not even worth—it's not even worth going if you don't have all the things making the concert an economic driver for local business in the region.' Beyond uplifting local business, Smith, a bass guitar player himself, also emphasized the broader importance of the tour economy as a catalyst for the industries that power live entertainment. That includes stagecrafters, electrical engineers, lighting designers, dancers, musicians, publicists, costume designers, and the full teams that support them. 'A lot of those jobs were decimated during the COVID-19 pandemic, when no one was going on tour,' Smith said. 'And now, these big, mammoth tours, these big stadium tours are spending millions of dollars every night on the people that make sure that the sound and the lights and the ancillary element are working.'

(Photo by Bexx Francois/For The Washington Post via Getty Images) Cowboy Carter is Beyoncé's second U.S. tour since the pandemic. And while it's most definitely different in tone, the financial punch for America's big cities remains the same. It couldn't come at a more convenient time, either, as cities across the country are seeing a decrease in crime and are searching for new sources of revenue amid a cavalcade of budget cuts from Washington, D.C. As Beyoncé's golden horse, floating horseshoe, and many of her now-iconic Cowboy Carter costumes make their way to the storage units, it's likely her economic impact — not just her spectacle — that cities and states will remember. Beyoncé's name was never on the ballot. She never passed a bill or rage-tweeted on X. And yet, her version of disruption has managed to move both culture and the economy. In her song 'American Requiem,' Knowles-Carter asks listeners to confront the complex and often painful history of race and culture in America. It's a counter narrative to today's political moment, one that treats historical truth as a liability. Through it all, Beyoncé may be proving something radically different: that reckoning with the past isn't just necessary, it might also be profitable.
