Festival Experiences
Show-stopping activations across the city of Cannes.
Cannes Lions offers a wealth of new innovative experiences to everyone who attends.
Being the creative industry’s meeting point means we’re joined by some of the world’s biggest brands every year, producing the most dynamic activations.
Part of your time at the Festival is about what you can see, do and discover through our partner spaces – both in the Palais and across the city of Cannes.
Expect unforgettable experiences including hands-on crafting at Pinterest’s Manifestival, meeting top athletes at Stagwell's SPORT BEACH and AR exploration with Meta. This is your chance to get inspired and learn about the latest innovations and technologies that are driving creativity and marketing forward.
Secure your spot to discover all Cannes Lions 2025 has to offer.
Take a look at some Cannes Lions 2024 experiences
Stagwell | SPORT BEACH
Stagwell’s SPORT BEACH is the premiere home for all sport within Cannes Lions, leveraging sport as a door opener into conversations driving the business, cultural and innovation landscape. Now in its 3rd season, SPORT BEACH hosts news-making conversations, workshops, open play, and more across four days, featuring the world’s leading athletes such as Travis Kelce, Megan Rapinoe, Carmelo Anthony and Eric Cantona.
LinkedIn | The Place to B2B
LinkedIn created a must-see experience that put B2B marketing in the spotlight—building connections, shaping the future of the industry, and making a bold impact with The Place to B2B. Based at the Carlton, LinkedIn brought thought leadership to life through networking, brand activations, and conversations that set the stage for what’s next, with plans to deepen integration in 2025.
Adobe | Young Lions and Majestic Takeover
Returning as the sponsor of the Young Lions Competitions, Adobe took over a prime space in front of the Majestic Hotel – creating a hub for networking, presentations and product showcases. This high-visibility space allowed Adobe to engage both aspiring and senior creatives, enhancing their influence across the Festival demographic.
Pinterest | Manifestival
We helped Pinterest secure the Carlton Hotel’s beach spot to host its ‘Manifestival’, an activation that brought all of Pinterest’s key engagement trends to life. A tattoo parlour, custom merch station and hair styling were just a few of the activities on offer all week.
The Manifestival brought in over 6000 attendees and got a tonne of press coverage, including being named the most interactive activation on the Croisette by AdWeek.
