Adrants Finally Penetrates Cannes!

This year marks our virgin foray into Cannes Lions territory: the biggest, swankiest and snottiest ad festival in all the land. (Dire economic reports suggest the event will be a little sparse this year, but we’re stalwart in our optimism.)

We’ll be there from the 20th-27th, writing ribald posts, interviewing people and probably taking really bad pictures. So if you want to hang out, get trashed and talk crap about ugly ads or their creators, by all means follow us on Twitter.

You can also check out the full Cannes Lions schedule or register here, late bloomer.

In the event that you can’t make it or are too old to try crashing for free, there’s always Wrath of Cannes on Coney Island. We may be stoked about the real Cannes, but in our hearts, few things beat a recycled statue with a head up its ass.
