About D&AD Festival 2024
D&AD Festival returned to London for 2024 in a new location at London’s Southbank Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hall building 21–22 May.
In an overwhelming era of visual stimuli, with daily technological leaps and data surges at unparalleled rates, where the lines of human craft and artificial intelligence are blurring, we cut through the noise. Joining us were creative leaders from Google Deepmind, COLLINS, EA Sports, TikTok, and GANNI.
80+ international speakers, across two days and two stages, live and interactive masterclasses, award-winning work insight sessions led by global creative leaders, plus a peek at the 2024 D&AD Awards shortlisted work.
The Festival exists to stimulate, enable and celebrate the creative excellence influencing us today and to push the industry forward to be better tomorrow.
Keynote speakers explored challenges facing the creative industry today such as embracing emerging technology and achieving long-term sustainable impact for businesses. Live Jury insight sessions discussed themes in the winning work from the 350+ global creative leaders who were present in London to judge the D&AD Awards.
The two-day event culminated with the D&AD Awards Ceremony on 22 May, awarding the very best in global creativity.
