Cannes Lions 2025

Join us at the International Festival of Creativity | 16-20 June

With the global advertising industry coming together in June, you’ll learn from the biggest ideas, meet like-minded people and get inspired by the best.

See groundbreaking creativity come to life when work is awarded, and when influential thought leaders take the stage. People from all over the world will be at Cannes Lions, in the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès and around the city of Cannes, France, so you can meet those you don’t usually cross paths with, and those you do. Experience the biggest brands first-hand, or bring your own business to the world stage.

Wherever you’re at in your creative career, coming to Cannes Lions will leave you with unmatched learnings, experiences and connections. Arrive curious, leave inspired.
