Casino Palm Beach, Casino and music venue in Pointe Croisette, France

Casino Palm Beach is a gaming and entertainment complex on Pointe Croisette in Cannes, built in Moorish Revival style with a minaret-like tower, horseshoe arches and geometric tilework. It houses gaming rooms, a theatre and music hall, and a seawater swimming pool facing the Lérins Islands. The building was designed by architect Roger Séassal.

The casino was designed by architect Roger Séassal and opened in 1929 on Pointe Croisette, replacing an earlier Palm Beach casino on the site. Its Moorish Revival design, with frescoes, mouldings and geometric tower elements, marked Cannes' push to draw wealthy international visitors. It became a fixture of the resort's gambling and theatre life.

The casino's Moorish Revival design by architect Roger Séassal, with its horseshoe arches and geometric tilework, sets it apart from the Belle Époque villas along the Croisette. Its halls host both gaming rooms and a theatre, so the same building serves evening performances and casino nights. The saltwater pool facing the Lérins Islands became a social meeting point for visitors during the interwar years.

The casino stands at the tip of Pointe Croisette, at the eastern end of the Croisette, reached by following the seafront promenade past the beach clubs. Gaming rooms and the theatre have separate entrances, and the pool area is entered from the seaward side. Evening visits require smart dress in the gaming rooms.

The seawater pool is set on the Pointe Croisette terrace, facing the Lérins Islands across the bay. Roger Séassal, who designed the building, gave the casino its Moorish Revival profile, and the pool terrace is where that silhouette meets the sea.
