Representatives

Our Festival representatives are here to help you engage with Cannes Lions.

About our Representatives network

Cannes Lions has a network of country Representatives across the globe. They serve as champions for creativity in their respective corners of the world. Our Representatives support local agencies and clients with making the most of their Cannes Lions experience, before Cannes, in Cannes and afterwards. They often report from Cannes day-by-day and bring a slice of Cannes Lions home with them, producing local events, Lions Nights and local awards ceremonies.

Find your Representative using our directory (below).

How the Representatives help Cannes Lions

1. Nominating jury members
Each year, Representatives identify their country's best creative talent and nominate exemplary industry members for places in the Cannes Lions Juries, ensuring the most qualified, balanced judging panels.

2. Organising Young Lions teams
Representatives organise local competitions to select teams of budding industry stars to go forward to take part in the seven Young Lions competitions and the Roger Hatchuel Academy live in Cannes.

3. Hosting Local Award Shows
Following the annual Festival, Representatives organise local celebrations, honouring the winners from Cannes Lions.

4. Screenings of the work
If you didn't get a chance to come to Cannes or catch all the winners while you were there, your Representative will get you up to speed. Screenings of the work give you a chance to check out all the winning work.

5. Answer questions
Your Representative is available to answer questions, help you to register as a delegate or enter your work. If they don’t know the answer, they can refer you to the best people to help in the Cannes Lions Festival team.
