The amfAR Gala Cannes, scheduled for May 21 at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc, will feature performances by Robbie Williams and PinkPantheress.

Robbie Williams' appearance comes after the release of his experimental biopic, 'Better Man.' Following the Cannes event, he is scheduled to embark on his Britpop Tour from June through November. PinkPantheress, fresh from performing at Coachella, will be undertaking her 'An Evening With...PinkPantheress Tour,' with dates extending into mid-May in the U.S. before her summer international shows.
The black-tie gala will also include a live auction of luxury items and experiences, led by auctioneer Simon de Pury, and a fashion show curated by Carine Roitfeld. The amfAR gala in Cannes began in 1993, hosted by Elizabeth Taylor, and has since raised $314 million for AIDS research.
