La Nuit des Publivores

I remember when I was living in Paris in 1987 and saw La Nuit des Publivores for the first time at Le Grand Rex. It was certainly a contributing factor to what got me interested in advertising in the first place.

Here in the UK, the event is called The Night of the AdEaters, and they've even got their very own viral to promote it:


Here's some info on this year's UK event:

This internationally acclaimed advertising and entertainment show will celebrate over 350 of the finest, most amazing, artistic and creative television and cinema advertising from around the world, including the best Russian, Asian, African, South American and UK advertising. It will also be interspersed with a menagerie of entertaining acts, and hosted by rapping elderly drag queen comedienne Ida Barr; think Granny meets Missy Elliott!

The show takes place at the Bloomsbury Theatre, 15 Gordon Street, London, WC1H 0AH on Thursday 16th October. Doors open at 6pm, the reel will commence at 7pm and it is due to finish at 1am.

Tickets cost £25 (inc.VAT) or £10 (incl.VAT) for students (valid student card required). Limited student tickets available. To buy tickets, and to view the creative work, visit www.adeaters.co.uk or contact Sophie Walker on 020 7201 8224.
