FRANCE – Today marks the return of the Eurosport Beach Soccer Tournament to Cannes Lions where the delegates will battle against each other in a full-size football field. The beach soccer tournament will go on until tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the shortlists for Glass, Cyber, Design, Radio and Product Design will be announced at 9:00am (UTC +01:00) while the Young Lions Media Winners will be announced at 4:45 in the afternoon.
Another round of Lions for Media, PR, Outdoor, Glass and Creative Effectiveness will also be awarded to the most outstanding works at the Grand Audi at 7:00 tonight.
Also, today, there will be a curated tour of the shortlisted and winning works led by the members of the jury and some of the most prominent industry creatives themselves at 11:00am and 3:00pm at the Exhibition Area. This tour is such a big deal, you would have to book to join. You can either book online or at the Tour Desk situated at Level Minus One of the Palais des Festivals.
For those of you who want to have a deeper understanding of how judging works, you may opt to listen to the insights with the Promo & Activation Jury around 5:00 in the afternoon at the Debussy.
Lastly, here’s a rundown of some of the seemingly intriguing talks today: Creating Constellations: Unleashing Creativity Through Collaboration featuring Pharell Williams; Innovation: When New Just Isn’t Enough featuring Chef and TV Personality Jamie Oliver; Where Isis and Seth Rogen Meet: Standing Up For Free Expression While Combating the Worst Among Us with Dave Drummond as one of the speakers; and Nicolas Pimentel’s #Worst Cannes Lions Talk Ever (We wonder how bad this can be?).
But you know, you can always, always follow your heart and choose from the full schedule here.
