Are these details incorrect?

1. Casino de Monte Carlo

The epitome of Riviera glamour, luxury and gambling excess (see Casino de Monte Carlo).
2. Planet Hollywood, Cannes

Restaurant, café and disco, owned by film stars, comes into its own during the Film Festival but is a hot spot year round and is easy to get into.
3. Carlton Casino Club, Cannes

On the seventh floor of this very smart hotel, formal dress is required to gain access to the exclusive gaming rooms. Celebrate winning with a glass of champagne, or drown your sorrows in a very dry martini – shaken, not stirred, of course.
4. Bar des Célébrités, Cannes

Billed as “the place to have a drink in the company of stars”, but even during the Film Festival, you are unlikely to rub shoulders with the A list. One of the best bars in Cannes, nonetheless.
5. Jimmy’z, Cannes

Proving that the 1970s never really died, this long-standing Cannes nightspot is so Riviera. Dress flash to fit in with the crowd of middle-aged groovers who still make this their club of choice. Drinks average a breathtaking €40, however.
6. Le Whisky a Go-Go, Cannes

Blisteringly loud music, a pounding beat and a sweaty atmosphere separate the middle-aged swingers from the real party animals in this popular Cannes disco.
7. Le Cesar’s Palace, Cannes

This is Cannes imitating Las Vegas, imitating ancient Rome. A cavernous club, with a relaxed door policy and live rap, dance and groove artists at weekends.
8. Disco 7, Cannes

Loud and louche, Disco 7 attracts a mixed gay and straight crowd. Techno and transvestism make for a decadent atmosphere. Not for the faint-hearted.
9. Stars ‘N’ Bars, Monaco

Currently the most popular disco and restaurant in Monaco, with transatlantic tastes in food, drink and music and a young, wealthy clientele.
10. Le Blitz, Cannes

Rock and roll on a budget (by Cannes standards) in this disco which also features live bands and has better musical taste than most venues around town.
