The shortlisted entrants will present their work directly to jury members, in front of a live audience, from Monday 17 to Wednesday 19 June 2019 and the winners will be announced onstage on Thursday 20 June.

Simon Cook, Managing Director, Cannes Lions, said, “We’re delighted to announce the first shortlists that represent the best in creativity from across the globe in these three highly competitive categories. Live judging allows more Cannes Lions delegates to gain insights and learn what creative excellence look like.”

Jaime Robinson, Chief Creative Officer of Joan Creative and this year’s Glass Lion Jury President said, “This year’s best work was a combination of powerful stories and really genius media-tweaking ideas, all hell bent on challenging norms. I think we’re all dying to get into the jury room, learn more about the shortlisted work, and of course, discuss!”
