The iconic [sparkling water company S.Pellegrino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sanpellegrino-ciao) will be participating in Cannes Film Festival events this weekend. It is opening numerous [pop-up restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-valley-ranch-tiny-restaurant) -- but all on water. With a fleet of motor boats, randomly selected guests will be able to enjoy a [gourmet dining experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fine-dining-experiences) while floating along the Bay of Cannes.

Over four days, the Trattoria al Mare S.Pellegrino will wine and dine 400 guests on water *with* its famous water. Each dinner will be crafted by Italian chef Marco Stabile and French chef Alain Llorca at no cost.

The only way to reserve a table on the floating restaurants is through a confidential number, which will be posted in secret locations along the Croisette. Festival-goers better keep their eyes open!
