Fireflies arrive in Cannes 2008
June 23, 2008
Once again the mighty Fireflies did it again.
This time it was over 70 riders. What started with a handful of people 8 years ago has turned into an amazing event. So far they raised over £ 600,000 for Leuka. All the money goes straight into Leukaemia and cancer research and every single rider has to give it everything to make it over these mountains. Cannes Fringe as always has brought you daily films of the trip and we hope that once you see these films it will only encourage you to go and donate as much as you can yourself.

Well done Fireflies.

A Fringe overview of the Golden Drum Festival 2007
October 18, 2007
The Golden Drum Awards is in its 14th year now and has established itself as one of the more significant advertising festivals in the world. Basing itself in Eastern Europe it has grown up out of the turmoil’s that the region has suffered in the past and is now recognized not only a European manifestation but also an important event noticed throughout the world. This year Cannes Fringe is broadcasting the event from the beautiful seaside port of Portoroz in Slovenia.
The Festival has grown from strength to strength and the larger it grows the more debate that takes place about the industry both positive and negative. This year the organizers have set the discussion based around the concept of “Beyond Horizons”. In true Golden Drum style they have opened the debate to the floor and have oraganized a Sunday afternoon of “Free” conversation called “Prologue” which we hope will uncover and unleash some of the more important theories and directions that the industry needs to undertake.
One thing is for sure at the International Golden Drum Festival that over the last ten years or so it has always been seen as a well-organized and friendly festival where countless long-lasting professional and business ties have been formed. It is an event which brings the world closer to the creativity that is growing out of the region and allows the by increasing the awareness year by year of this in turn creates more fluid industry relationships and trade both on the domestic and international stage.
The Fringe believes it is significant and as a result will be there reporting on all that occurs!
