Cannes Film Festival Plunged into Chaos by Power Outage, Thousands in Dark Just Before Awards Night

A massive power outage struck southeastern France on Saturday, leaving around 160,000 households in the Alpes-Maritimes department without electricity. The blackout came just hours after a fire at an electrical substation near Cannes had weakened the grid, creating a perfect storm of disruption. The outage impacted the Cannes Film Festival, briefly halting screenings at some venues and causing traffic chaos as traffic lights failed in Cannes and nearby Antibes. Festival organizers confirmed that the Palais des Festivals switched to an independent power supply and assured that all scheduled events, including the prestigious Closing Ceremony, would proceed as planned. #CannesFilmFestival #PowerOutage #FranceBlackout #Cannes2024 #FilmFestivalChaos #ElectricityFailure #TrafficDisruption #AlpesMaritimes #FestivalNews #BreakingNews #EnergyCrisis #FranceNews #CannesEvents Also Read Actor Ruchi Gujjar Wears A Necklace With PM Modi's Photos At Cannes 2025 :: https://www.oneindia.com/entertainment/actor-ruchi-gujjar-wears-a-necklace-with-pm-modis-photos-at-cannes-2025-4159807.html?ref=DMDesc Cannes 2025: Urvashi Rautela’s ‘Oops Moment’ Goes Viral, Watch Video Here :: https://www.oneindia.com/entertainment/cannes-2025-urvashi-rautela-oops-moment-goes-viral-watch-video-here-4157827.html?ref=DMDesc Rashmika Mandanna’s Team Denies Claims of Skipping Bengaluru Film Fest, MLA Vows to Share Proof :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/rashmika-mandanna-s-team-denies-claims-of-skipping-bengaluru-film-fest-mla-vows-to-share-proof-4085999.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.274~GR.125~ED.194~

Sea Lady II Superyacht Goes Up In Flames In Saint-Tropez | Dramatic Rescue | Damage Probe Begins

A massive fire erupted aboard the 41.25-meter luxury superyacht Sea Lady II on Thursday night at the famed Port de Saint-Tropez on the French Riviera. Shocking videos circulating online show the vessel engulfed in flames and black smoke as firefighters struggled to board the burning yacht. The blaze reportedly began in the bow shortly after 8 PM, quickly spreading to lower decks. Two crew members, aged 24 and 35, were rescued and treated for smoke inhalation. The fire was largely under control by midnight, but officials say the vessel is likely to sink. Surrounding yachts were evacuated, and anti-pollution barriers were deployed. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Delivered in 1986 and designed by Don Shead, Sea Lady II could accommodate 10 guests and was available for charter at €65,000 per week. Its destruction marks one of the most high-profile yacht fires in the Mediterranean this year. #SeaLadyII #SaintTropezFire #SuperyachtFire #LuxuryYachtBurns #StTropezYachtFire #YachtAccidentFrance #FrenchRivieraFire #YachtOnFire #PortDeSaintTropez #YachtDisaster #LuxuryBoatFire #SeaLadyBurns #SuperyachtDisaster #FireAtSea #YachtCrewRescue #FrenchYachtEmergency #LuxuryCharterFire #DonSheadDesign #CaterpillarEngines #SaintTropezYachtNews ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.346~
