Nominate a Juror

Cannes Lions
International Festival
of Creativity

Official Canadian Program Page

The Canadian Cannes Lions Advisory Board has the honour of submitting nominations to Lions as potential jurors for the 2025 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

Nominations for the 2025 Cannes Lions Festival can be made by submitting a nomination form by Friday, September 27.  The Canadian Cannes Lions Advisory Board will review the submissions and  will notify those who will be put forward as official nominations to Lions before October 11.

Lions has developed a regional framework to ensure that global society is represented across all the juries. Within each region, each market has been allocated a selection of these spots based on their recent participation and success, with the remainder as wildcard places.

Canada is guaranteed 7 awarding jury positions and 3 shortlist* jury positions without specific category allocations.  Once all submissions have been made, Lions will determine which categories and candidates are best suited.  Lions feels this will provide more flexibility to select the best talent for each lion.

Please ensure you indicate up to 5 categories for your nomination and that the nominee would be available to travel to Cannes, France for the duration of judging in June 2025. Why should they be considered to be on a jury? Please include their specialities in each particular category, top achievements, awards, career milestones, passion projects and/or anything you feel would support the nomination.
