This year, we unite Cannes in Cairns with the Cairns Crocodiles Awards, to create Cairns Crocodiles. Between 13-15 May 2025, Cairns, bordered by the Daintree rainforest and Great Barrier Reef, is the meeting place for visionary minds in advertising, creativity, marketing and media. This year will also see the launch of Cairns Hatchlings program and Cairns Masterclasses.
The Cairns Crocodiles Awards honour the outstanding creativity and craft behind Asia Pacific’s finest work. This year, the Crocs return with new categories, including Strategy, Effectiveness and Inclusivity.
The Hatchlings program showcases tomorrow’s leaders from around the Asia Pacific region.
Contested across eight categories reflecting every section of the industry, the Hatchlings will see the finest young talent given just 24 hours to produce groundbreaking work. All finalists will be flown to Cairns to compete in front of top marketers from around the region
