Cannes Lions is dedicated to nurturing the young talent of this industry: the students, young creatives, up-and-coming marketing talent, suits and young directors. The Festival does what it can to inspire, educate and grow the fresh blood that this industry builds on.

Young Lions In Cannes

Everyone with a Young Lions or Student Registration automatically gets access to the Young Lions Zone, an area inside the Festival venue which is especially built for the young delegates. It hosts a variety of activities for the under 30s such as master classes, exhibitions, a YouTube smoothie bar and digital kiosks, and it's where the Young Lions Competitions take place.

Twice a day during the Festival, the Young Lions Zone hosts a master class. These one-hour sessions tackle subject that are specific to the young talent of this industry. These are unique opportunities to listen to inspirational thinkers in an intimate setting. Watch previously-held master classes.
  

Interactive kiosks throughout the Young Lions Zone offer an opportunity to go through the shortlisted and winning work in peace.

There are also exhibitions of former Future Lions winners.
     
The Young Lions Zone is the perfect place for having a rest from it all and chatting with your friends, old and new. There is plenty of space for checking your email with free Wi-Fi, reading the Lions Daily or having a little power nap.  

On the Tuesday night of the Festival, a Young Lions Party brings together all the young delegates at a party, great for meeting peers from all over the world.
