Lone Star Soirée is an invitation-only, Texas–France fusion experience presented by DCAC On Tour: bringing the hospitality, the edge, and the real conversations DCAC is known for to the French Riviera.
One night. La Côte d'Azur. The people building the infrastructure that the world runs on.
The evening begins with the Community Symposium at sunset — an honest, industry-defining panel conversation — before transitioning into a full Riviera soirée: live music, champagne, Texas whiskey, a Franco-Texan culinary experience, and a cigar lounge built for the conversations that actually move this industry forward.
"Elevated. Disruptive. Unforgettable."
The data center industry is building the fifth utility: the essential infrastructure powering AI, cloud, and every digital connection the modern world depends on. And yet it's misunderstood, underestimated, and misrepresented in the conversations shaping its own future.
We're changing that. In Cannes. At sunset.
The Community Symposium is an unfiltered, high-signal panel conversation featuring senior voices from across the industry — no fluff, no keynotes for the sake of keynotes, no pay-to-play. Just the right people, the right questions, and the kind of conversation DCAC has always been known for.
DCAC, the Data Center Anti-Conference, has spent 11 years building the industry's most honest, most people-forward gathering. Founded in Austin, Texas. Zero pay-to-play speakers. One hundred percent hand-selected community.
DCAC On Tour takes that same energy across the globe — activating at major industry events to bring the DCAC experience to where the global conversation is already happening.
Cannes is next.
