Gopuff, the go-to platform for immediate delivery of consumers’ evolving everyday needs, won a Bronze Lion award at the prestigious Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity for "The Gopuff Quartertime Show" starring rapper, actor and comedian Lil Dicky. In addition to taking Bronze in the Engagement: Social & Influencer category, which celebrates creative social thinking and strategic influencer marketing solutions, Gopuff was shortlisted for five additional categories. Cannes Lions is recognized as the global benchmark for creative excellence. This year they received 25,464 entries from 87 countries with only 826 Lions awarded.

The Gopuff Quartertime Show was a one-of-a-kind spectacle designed to deliver entertainment fast—as fast as Gopuff delivers everyday essentials—during one of the most watched sporting events of the year. It streamed live in between the first and second quarters of February’s Big Game, ushering in a new entertainment platform and concept in Super Bowl advertising. Gopuff drove consumer interest in the Gopuff Quartertime Show through a combination of social-led announcements, press outreach, influencer relations, and by engaging with Lil Dicky and several high-profile celebrities, such as Cardi B, Drake and Kendall Jenner. Fans were able to watch the Gopuff Quartertime Show across multiple channels, including Twitter, Lil Dicky’s  YouTube and Gopuff’s YouTube.
