The black market for the top tickets at the Cannes Film Festival is in full swing.

While industry professionals and accredited journalists get in free, there are many general punters who show up in the hope of blagging or buying entry to the hottest events on the Cannes Croisette.

"I've already seen three films for free. Each time, nice people gave me a ticket," says Sienna, an Italian woman in her thirties who travelled all the way from Berlin. Not far away, Jenny, a young American from Miami who did not wish to give her surname, confided that she is a member of a WhatsApp group bringing together some 600 punters and sellers of tickets and invitations.

Another is offering a ticket to a party attended by DiCaprio for"20,000 euros per person", while others for"after parties" range from 9,500 to 16,500 euros."Influencers who have millions of followers and just want to be seen," says Jenny."For them and the brands they promote, 2,000 euros is nothing."
