The best advertising in the world for your viewing pleasure

Cannes Lions 2023 may be receding into the distance as the industry’s attention turns to important stuff like end-of-year planning and—equally important—vacations, long weekends and summer hours/parties.

So as we wind down an unusually quiet week in Canadian advertising (how come nobody told us everyone was taking the week off?), we decided to share some of the best work from the International Festival of Creativity.

We’ve already shared nearly all of the Grand Prix winners through our extensive Cannes coverage, but we’ve compiled the case videos here for your viewing pleasure when you don’t feel like end-of-year planning. We’ve got 17 here, and we’ll post 17 more tomorrow.
