CONT

Le Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival a lieu tous les ans à Cannes et compte parmi les plus prestigieuses manifestations de la branche. Captivés par le charme des festivals de Cannes et de Venise, des producteurs européens de films publicitaires avaient lancé en 1954 l'International Advertising Film Festival. Jusqu'en 1984, celui-ci était organisé alternativement sur la Croisette ou sur le Lido. Lorsqu'en 1992 il s'est ouvert aux imprimés, le mot «film» a été rayé du nom. Depuis lors, les catégories se sont multipliées : Young Creatives Competition, Cyber Lions, Media Lions, Lions Direct, etc. Le jury décerne aussi des prix spéciaux dont la «Palme d'or». Chaque année, 20 000 œuvres sont envoyées de tous les pays du globe pour être évaluées par un jury international : plus de 5 000 films publicitaires, quelques 10 000 annonces et affiches, 1 500 titres internet, plus de 800 solutions média et plus de 1 200 propositions pour le marketing direct. Quelque 9 000 publicitaires originaires du monde entier profitent de l'occasion pour se rencontrer.
