This year has been a great Cannes Lions for South Africa with a total of 27 Lions being awarded to 10 different local agencies. It’s also great to see the Lions being awarded across a number of different disciplines, including mobile, a category very relevant to us, and one with a lot of potential for great creative work to come. 

Ogilvy Cape Town were the big winners this year with a total of 7 Lions (1 x Gold, 2 x Silver, 4 x Bronze). Next up were NET#WORK BBDO, DDB and TBWA, all with good showings. To see all the local winning work follow the relevant links below:
