Billionaire Superyacht Showdown: Who's Who at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival

The vibe is decidedly different this year at the Cannes Film Festival.

Following film producer Harvey Weinstein's scandal, many of the top parties are being scaled back, while many notable companies have ended their annual extravagant bashes.

The #MeToo movement is on everyone's mind, and a major effort is being made to do as much as possible to create respect and proper representation of women at the festival.

The Cannes Film Festival has become an annual tradition for super-yachts and mega-yachts that are anchored in Antibes, Monaco or fronting the Jetee Albert Edouard in the Old Port of Cannes.

Many of the super-yachts owners position their massive vessels in prime view to garner the most attention possible.

I have made the South of France my second home every year during this time and will constantly update this report daily with new arrivals throughout May.  All net worth quotes are based on the most updated Forbes Billionaire list.
