Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity Multi-Day Gathering

Cannes, France

June 2024

Empire's long-standing industry partner, Awards 360, asked us to collaborate on delivering a three-day, informal outdoor gathering for the prestigious transformation consultancy, COLLINS, and their guests during Cannes Lions in France. Set in a beautifully restored French villa, this series of talks was crafted as an oasis amidst the bustling Cannes Lions schedule, blending insightful conversations with live musical performances and signature cocktails.

The events were purposefully designed to provide business leaders, marketers, and creators with a space to engage in open-minded discussions while enjoying the stunning French Riviera. Each day of programming attracted a highly curated, intimate audience, fostering meaningful connections.

Evenings were capped off with captivating performances by the Moyses dos Santos Band, featuring guest singers provided by Mike Jurkovac and the team at VAST, entertaining guests well into the night.

The result? We delivered a meticulously curated experience in France, further expanding our global footprint in the EMEA region. From leading event logistics, technical production, stage management, décor, and overall project management, the experience was seamless and a success.
