The best connections aren't made on stages. They happen next door.
BACKYARD is an independently curated space during Cannes Lions Festival week — with selected guests and best insights by our creative experts.
We present a deliberately new format: intimate, curated, and designed for meaningful exchange beyond the rush of the biggest event of creativity in europe.
Created for everyone who values Cannes and occasionally appreciates a place where conversations can slow down, open up, and go as deep as they deserve.
What to expect
The Serviceplan Group opens BACKYARD again — an entirely new, deliberately curated space created exclusively for this moment. This time at RTL beach, just in the middle where creativity spark. BACKYARD is not another event, but a private setting designed for genuine encounters, meaningful conversations, and an exceptional atmosphere.
We bring together a carefully selected circle of C‑level leaders from Brand, Media, MarTech, Creative, AdTech, and Communications. Attendance is intentionally limited to create a space for real exchange, fresh perspectives, and connections that rarely happen at large-scale events.
BACKYARD marks the beginning of a new event format hosted by Serviceplan Group — intimate, intentional, and built around the people shaping the future of our industry.
Agenda
On Thursday, 25th June, from 12:30 pm until 3 pm.
