La Plage Courage - Cannes Beach
The Cannes Lions Advertising Festival is almost upon us and no amount of falling ash can keep the ad world from far and wide away from La Croisette in 2010. This year, LBBOnline has partnered with a number of sponsors (see below) to create the first annual LBB Lounge. Known as La Plage Courage to honour the Fireflies Riders, the whole effort will raise funds for the Leuka Charity for Leukaemia research.
You are all invited to come down to La Plage Courage, which is located between the Carlton and the Martinez beaches (closer to the latter - look for the black flags). It will be open from 10-18:00 from Tuesday the 22nd through Friday the 25th. The bar and restaurant will remain open later. All are welcome to come down for free at any time, except during the two “invitation only” events listed below. Come down to use the beach and sun loungers, restaurant and bar, join in on the World Cup of Fussball, get in some serious networking, access the free WiFi, watch the World Cup Matches, enjoy massages, have meetings and entertain clients, or just to kill time and chill out!
