The success of Latin advertising in the world is not new. Our agencies and creatives have their talent recognized and conquer more space in the international market every year. As we know, this is the result of a process of more than 3 decades involving a lot of creativity, effort, talent, and dedication.

This led to a sad conclusion: the lack of a truly important award for creatives in communication in Latin America.

Of course there are a number of events and festivals, but none that represents in the region what Cannes represents in a global scale.

This fact was the motivation which led us to organize a new event. Not only another event, but the "Latin American Festival", an event that truly translates the transnational character, a relevant, charming and prestigious event. An award never before held in our continent.

Find out why you should register and enter your work in the 2011 WAVE FESTIVAL

We have started earlier, so you'll have more time.
The Wave Festival portal will go on air during the second semester of 2010 and entries will also be accepted this year. We have brought the dates forward so you'll have more time to enter your work, with greater ease.

Take note: Wave winners do well at Cannes.
Many of the winning entries at the 2010 Wave Festival were also winners at the Cannes Festival. This tendency is sure to become more evident, as the numbers of entries increase from 2011 onwards. The Wave Festival will become a door to Cannes. You cannot pass up this opportunity.

One thing will not change: great names in the world of advertising and the best quality in Latin America.
As the first two editions, the Wave Festival will bring together some of the most outstanding international names in the field of contemporary communication. The first contacts are being made and the first confirmations are already being received.
