Dubai Lynx now open for delegate registrations

The 2011 event will be held for the first time at the Arabian coast resort the Madinat Jumeirah in Dubai. Attendees will be able to enjoy a welcome session, 18 seminars, 4 up-close-and-personal workshops, view the best creative work that the region has produced in the last year at the various exhibitions, interactive kiosks and screenings, as well as partake in unique networking opportunities.

The cost for the full delegate pass is US$450, but registrations made before 28 February 2011 can enjoy an early bird discounted rate of US$350.

Additionally there are reduced registration packages for Young Lynx, young creatives under the age of 28, and for students up to 23 years of age enrolled in full-time education.

Tables can also now be reserved for the Lynx Awards and Dinner, the culmination of the festival, to be held at the Madinat Jumeirah Arena on 30 March.

"Attending the Dubai International Advertising Festival is an exceptional opportunity for people in the business to hear first-hand from global leaders about the industry's latest trends and changes as well as being inspired and meet peers from the region and beyond," says Philip Thomas, CEO of Cannes Lions who with Motivate Publishing are joint organisers of the Festival. "Maintaining the low price level allows the event to be accessible to everyone at all levels, assisting the continued development of creative advertising and communications."
