N°01: Event Production & Direction

The Seine Yacht Event: Paris

105 guests · In partnership with Yachts de Paris

Fireworks bursting over Pont Alexandre III at night, guests and catering staff watching from the yacht's deck

An exclusive milestone celebration for a private client, produced in partnership with Yachts de Paris: 105 guests aboard a private yacht on the Seine, full creative and production ownership through to on-site delivery. Every detail was planned, from the spatial flow of the vessel to a contemporary dance performance by a dancer from Théâtre de Chaillot.

What wasn't planned: a major football victory igniting the city as we set sail, turning the night into an unrepeatable moment through a euphoric, celebratory Paris.
