Cannes Predictions 2016

Leo Burnett Worldwide today published its 29th annual Cannes Predictions, forecasting major contenders ahead of the 63rd Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, the global advertising industry’s most prestigious event, held in Cannes from June 18 – 25, 2016. 

The annual Leo Burnett Cannes Predictions, with a track record of more than 84 percent accuracy, spotlights a short list of campaigns with strong likelihood of winning a prestigious Lion among tens of thousands of submissions.
