Attending the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity is an exciting opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of advertising, creativity, and innovation. Here are some suggestions on what to pack and how to dress for the event:

  1. Business Attire: The Cannes Lions festival has a professional atmosphere, so it's important to dress smartly. Pack a selection of business attire such as tailored suits, blazers, dress shirts, and slacks. For women, options can include pantsuits, dresses, skirts, and blouses.

  2. Comfortable Shoes: You'll likely be on your feet for long hours, so bring comfortable shoes that are suitable for walking and standing. Opt for stylish yet comfortable footwear, such as dress shoes or comfortable heels.

  3. Casual Attire: While business attire is generally expected during the daytime, there may be some casual events or networking opportunities where you can dress more casually. Pack a few smart-casual outfits like chinos, blouses, and collared shirts for such occasions.

  4. Light Jacket or Sweater: Evenings in Cannes can get cooler, especially near the waterfront. Pack a light jacket or sweater to layer over your outfits, ensuring you stay comfortable during outdoor events or evening gatherings.

  5. Accessories: Don't forget to bring accessories that complement your outfits, such as ties, scarves, belts, and jewelry. These can add a touch of personal style to your overall look.

  6. Business Cards: Cannes Lions is a hub for networking, so be sure to pack an ample supply of business cards to exchange with fellow attendees, potential clients, or industry professionals.

  7. Sun Protection: Cannes enjoys a Mediterranean climate, so pack sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun during outdoor events or if you decide to explore the city in your free time.

  8. Electronic Devices: Bring your laptop or tablet if you plan on working or taking notes during presentations. Additionally, don't forget to bring chargers and any necessary adapters to keep your devices powered.

  9. Networking Essentials: Consider carrying a small notepad and pen for jotting down important information, as well as a portable phone charger to keep your devices powered throughout the day.

  10. Personal Items: Remember to pack essentials like toiletries, medication (if required), and any personal items you might need during your stay.

Remember to check the official Cannes Lions website or contact the event organizers for any specific dress codes or guidelines they may have for certain events or award ceremonies. Enjoy the festival and make the most of your time networking, learning, and exploring the world of creativity!
