MIPIM 11th – 14th March 2008

Leeds at MIPIM 2008

55 La Croisette
Cannes

Also on Stand 14.16 in the main exhibition hall.

Having had a successful boat for the past five years, Leeds is moving to a fantastic new apartment with extensive garden terrace above Cartier on La Croisette (directly before the Carlton Hotel).

An exciting programme of events will highlight the renaissance of the city as one of the UK's leading urban centres both at the apartment as well as on Stand 14.16 in the main exhibition hall.

Leeds has always had its own outside caterers, the award winning company Dine out to MIPIM and has been praised for offering the best hospitality at the event. This year a café/deli style menu will feature with the usual mouth-watering canapés available at the evening receptions.
