The 73rd edition of Cannes Lions is around the corner. As final preparations ramp up, we’ve pulled together some key information, reminders and useful resources to help you make the most of your Festival experience.
Key Info
Please join the Press Team for afternoon drinks on the Press Centre Terrace – Monday 22 June between 4.30 – 6pm CEST. RSVP here.
Press Portal
As an accredited member of the press, you have access to the Press Portal. The press portal will host assets for your reporting, including downloadable shortlists and winners lists, assets of the winning work, logos, press kits, daily Festival images and more.
If you are struggling to login, please reach out to [email protected].
Embargoes
Bronze and Silver winners:
Bronze and Silver winners may be reported from 2:30pm CEST on the day they are announced.
Gold and Grand Prix winners:
Gold and Grand Prix winners announced during the press conferences remain strictly under embargo until the conclusion of that evening’s Awards Show (approximately 9:30pm CEST). Please wait for the official Cannes Lions press release to be issued before publishing coverage.
The full list of winners can only be published following the end of each Awards Show.
Digital Access
As part of your press accreditation, you’ll receive access to the digital experience. Streamed directly from the Cannes Lions website, you’ll be able to view the winning work and livestreamed content happening across our Lumière, Debussy Stages and Rotonde Stages. Content happening across other stages will be available to watch within 72 hours of taking place on The Work.
Details on how to login will be shared in the coming days.
You will gain access to The Work on Monday 22 June, and will have access to it for three weeks. Please note, we cannot extend access after this for editorial purposes.
Navigating the Festival

You will be able to pick up your pass from Sunday 21 June to Friday 26 June. Opening hours and FAQs can be found here.
