Tax Free World Association (TFWA) has announced further information on the networking agenda at the World Exhibition & Conference in Cannes.

Cycling enthusiasts can join the last 40km stage of a 500km para-bike ride from Toulouse to Cannes led by former international rugby player David Berty and m1nd-set’s Michael Barrett, or welcome the cyclists as they arrive at Cannes City Hall at 17:30 on Saturday 27 September.

On Sunday 28 September, delegates will be able to partake in the ‘Yes We Cannes’ para-sports programme, including blind football and wheelchair rugby co-organised by charity Stade Toulousain Handisport and TFWA and supported by m1nd-set.

The traditional Opening Cocktail at Carlton Beach will take place from 19:00, with access to this and other networking events complimentary for all badge holders.

The popular TFWA Lounge returns with after-work and night-time sessions taking place on Monday 29 September and Tuesday 30 September between 18:30-21:00 and 22:00-01:00 each evening.

On Wednesday 1 October at 22:00 TFWA Lounge will transform into the ‘Phenomena Club’ featuring DJs including the famed Martin Solveig.

In customary fashion, delegates can take advantage of TFWA’s ONE2ONE meeting service that facilitates introductions and organises meetings between exhibiting brands, key buyers, airports and trade agents.

Philippe Margueritte, TFWA President said: “Networking is a core part of attending a TFWA event and remains vital for the progress of an industry that is forged on relationships. This year’s programme reflects our commitment to creating meaningful connections in unforgettable settings. Alongside the chance to exchange ideas, conduct business, and explore new opportunities, delegates can seed and grow new partnerships in a relaxed atmosphere. We look forward to connecting the industry once again in Cannes later this year.”
