Experiential & Event Marketing Market: Cannes Lions 2026 Day 3: Panels, Parties and Activations
Adweek’s Day 3 gallery from Cannes Lions 2026 highlights festival activations, panels and networking across ADWEEK House, brand spaces and sponsor lounges. Panels covered AI and creativity — including Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis on AI-enabled storytelling and a LinkedIn rooftop discussion titled “Winning in the AI Discovery Era” — while sports programming featured guests such as Maria Sharapova, Chris Paul and Jaylen Brown. Brand activations included Linktree’s L’Appartement, Snap’s AR Studio and Snap Spectacles, LiveRamp and IRCode’s yacht party, and agency celebrations including VML’s Grand Prix win and Circus Grey & Lima’s Ethical Data & Privacy Innovation Grand Prix. The gallery is a visual roundup of Day 3’s people, panels and experiential marketing moments from the festival.
Visual coverage of Cannes Lions Day 3 documents panels, activations and networking that reflect industry trends (AI, experiential marketing) but contains no major platform technical release, policy update, or high-impact AdTech product announcement.
