Dubai Lynx International Festival of Creativity announces the winners of the latest edition at its first live awards ceremony since 2019. The Dubai Lynx is the MENA region’s version of the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.


The event itself took place on the 16 March 2022 at Dubai Opera. With over 2,400 attendees, the vibrant festival is a melting pot where ideas, brands and technology collide. It’s a place to explore what it means to be creative today, and to debate what it might mean tomorrow.


BIG KAHUNA FILMS wins a total of 14 awards (5 Grand Prix, 4 Gold, 5 Bronze) under the following categories: Social & Influencer, Media, Integrated, Healthcare, Glass, Entertainment and Direct. The Glass Award for Change celebrating “culture-shifting creativity” went to Impact BBDO Dubai and BKF for its campaign “Despair No More” for TENA.

Philip Thomas, chairman of Lions and Dubai Lynx, said: “We have seen examples of outstanding creativity from our winners and they have set the benchmark for creative excellence in MENA while providing an insight into the region’s current industry landscape.”
