WWD&S brings back the Wrath of Cannes for a fourth year… God help us all

They’re baaaaaaaack.

Last year, one of the very first stories in the then-all-new ihaveanidea Inbox was the announcement of the Wrath of Cannes III. Well New York agency Woods Witt Dealy & Sons is back at it again this year with the fourth Wrath of Cannes, the “other” ad festival, on Wednesday, June 23rd at Kabin in the East Village.

Positioned as a festival for people who don’t get to go to the big one on the French Riviera, Wrath of Cannes is really just an excuse to get drunk and have a lot of fun (which is not too far off from the real Cannes.) This year, the focus will be on Content, or rather Cannes(tent). What is that exactly? From the sounds of this panel of experts… anything you want it to be.

The competition for the renowned ” Grand Coney”itself is open to anyone with less than two years of paid agency experience. Zero entry fees, no call for entries deadline, just fun, prizes and $1.oo beers…. about 7% of the cost of a beer on the Carlton International Hotel terrace in Cannes.
