Outside Cannes, stars shine for AIDS research at amfAR Gala hosted by Geena Davis

  • On Thursday, the annual amfAR Gala returns to the Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, with Academy Award winner Geena Davis hosting performances by Robbie Williams, Lizzo, and Zara Larsson.
  • Since 1985, the organization has raised nearly $950 million to support global programs, awarding more than 3,800 grants dedicated to HIV and AIDS research worldwide.
  • Guests navigate narrow French roads to reach the exclusive venue, where signs prohibit walking the final 164 feet; inside, attendees receive wristbands for dinner before the red carpet and auction.
  • Event chairs Pamela Anderson, Colman Domingo, and Michelle Yeoh oversee the auction, which features a seven-day Arctic expedition with explorer Inge Solheim and artwork by Tracey Emin and Andy Warhol.
  • As the Cannes Film Festival winds down, the gala serves as the final major opportunity for stars to make a lasting impression on the red carpet before the event concludes.
