Presented annually since 1954, the Cannes Lions are the most prestigious international creative communications awards in the advertising and communication industry. This is a special opportunity for Winnipeggers to see the world’s most entertaining, inspirational, and humorous commercials from around the world, including a selection of bronze, silver, gold, and grand prix winners from the past year.  

The Winnipeg premiere of the 2022 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity launches at WAG-Qaumajuq with screenings in December. Representing almost every continent and spanning cultures from around the globe, the award-winning ads are a fascinating window to the world.

The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity is the world’s biggest celebration of creativity in communications. As the most prestigious international annual advertising awards, nearly 40,000 entries from close to 100 countries are showcased and judged at the festival. Winning organizations receive the highly coveted Lion trophy, benchmarking innovation in anything from mobile and billboards to design and branded content.

Visitors can join friends and family in the beautiful Muriel Richardson Auditorium for content representing almost every continent and spanning cultures from around the globe.
