There’s the party and then there’s the afterparty, and when Richie Akiva is involved, you know that afterparty is going to be good. And when Akiva ‘s bash is co-hosted by Johnny Depp (he of the recent Cannes Film Festival 15-minute standing ovation), well, that’s a night of legend.

As befitting such an evening, the best of the best needed to be served. Champagne Telmont, therefore, was fittingly flowing, greeting guests upon arrival and all evening long; Leonardo DiCaprio is an investor in the luxurious, eco-friendly brand. Armand de Brignac also flowed on select VIP tables throughout the night as did Volcan tequila. Full bars also greeted guests at every turn on each level of the historic villa grounds. An all night brick oven gourmet pizza station kept the 350 guests fed at the exclusive bash, even as they left at 7am during daylight after the closing DJ set by Keinemusik together with DJ Cruz.

Performances by Chase B, Keinemusik (Rampa and &Me), and DJ sets by Zack Bia and DJ Cruz had guests dancing until 7am at the historic, famed Domaine La Dilecta in Antibes, moments from Hotel Du Cap following the exclusive Cannes amfAR gala.

Akiva has been hosting this party for almost a decade now, a name known on a global scale for throwing the most epic of events. Following Cannes Film Festival events which took place throughout the week — inclusive of The Weeknd celebrating The Idol on Vava yacht with a performance by Travis Scott, and a takeover at Cannes exclusive hotspot Luigi late night following the Killers of The Flower Moon premiere — Akiva hosted his annual amfAR party at the lavish grounds and sprawling estate Domaine La Dilecta.
