What’s this all about?

• Every year, the CEOs and creatives who had the big-ass budgets get to go strut around in linen at Cannes.

  So we’re creating a festival to celebrate the low-budget creatives making killer work.

Who can submit to Cans?

• Anyone that made something! Big agency, small agency, or just an individual. The only rule: your project can NOT also be submitted to real Cannes.

I’m not from the USA, can I still submit an idea?

• Of course! Submissions are accepted from anywhere across the globe.

What’s the budget limit?

• There is none…however, submissions must prove to the Cans judges why the project budget was exceptionally low. A Super Bowl spot made with $10k? Great. A viral social campaign made with $8? Even better.

When’s the big event?

• We’ll be hosting the Cans Festival Ceremonies in June 2024 in NYC. Invites and tickets to the event TBD.

What’s the cost to submit?

• Cans Fest is a little…cheap. To cover operational costs, submissions will cost $20 for individuals, and $100 for agencies.

Are you just jealous you weren’t invited to real Cannes?

• …no.
