All aboard the advertising express

From London to Cannes with Paddington in train

Our Cannes Lions journey officially began on Sunday as our team gathered in St Pancras station to take the Eurostar to France and then the TGV onto Cannes via Marseille.

Our journey on board ‘The Advertising Express’ gave us time and opportunity to meet up with some of the companies involved in our trade mission – including our friends at Locate Productions and Talent Republic.

We brought along our UK mascot, Paddington, too who, following tea with the Queen for the Platinum Jubilee, is joining us for the week in Cannes. Look out for him as he’ll be starring in as many photos as we can take!

Now we’re looking forward to a week full of events, networking with our international colleagues and celebrating UK creativity on the world stage.

Don’t forget, you can check all our activities and sign up for our Cannes daily newsletter on our hub here!
