As Cannes Lions 2024 has wrapped up, Campaign's editors and journalists from around the world look back on the five-day festival.

Cannes daily global podcast episode 6: Festival review, plus call for shorter film ads

In this final episode, we hear from Gideon Spanier, UK editor-in-chief of Campaign, Maisie McCabe, UK editor of Campaign, Alison Weissbrot, editor-in-chief of Campaign US, Rahat Kapur, editor of Campaign Asia, and David Brown, joint editor of Campaign Canada, who review Cannes Lions 2024 and give their verdict on the festival.

We discuss the final winners, including the Film Lions where two Grand Prix awards went to Orange and Marcel for “WoMen’s football” and the Sydney Opera House and The Monkeys for “Play It Safe." 

We also hear from Tor Myhren, the president of the FIlm Lions jury, who called for the industry to focus on making better shorter ads, plus the Campaign editors analyse the winning work from each of their regions.

Campaign hosted the daily global podcast for the second year in a row—with a different mix of Campaign editors and journalists who were on the ground in Cannes talking each day.

Listen to the whole of the six-part series to find out who won all of the top Lions awards and other big news from the talks and sessions at the Palais.
