Some people love ’em, some people hate ’em… Some people wait until Superbowl Sunday just to watch the best of ’em. Well wait no more… The Annual Cannes Lions Commercial Festival makes it’s visit @ The Winnipeg Art Gallery.

What is the Cannes Lions festival you might ask? Well it’s a festival that showcases the very best commercials of the year. (Just like Ken’s favorite “Non-Blinking World Record” commercial. Which can be seen above.)

The festival that is currently running is scheduled to go until December 13th with shows going on at 7pm and 9pm daily (doors open at 6pm). Tickets are $7 for Gallery members, $9 for adults, $8 for students and seniors, and $6 for children. They are available in advance at the WAG and through all Ticketmaster outlets (additional feels apply to phone/internet orders).

Hit the jump to view some of my favorite commercials…
