Košice Region wins Silver Dolphin at Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards

The Košice Region has won the Silver Dolphin award in the tourism category at the Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards. The winning destination video, titled ‘They Say There’s Nothing Here’, competed against nearly 1,000 projects from 52 countries.

Produced by the Košice Region Tourism Organization and the creative agency Vrizzly, the film focuses on emotional storytelling and philosophical reflection rather than traditional lists of landmarks. It utilizes the local stereotype that ‘there is nothing here’ as a creative narrative device to encourage travelers to discover quiet, authentic locations.

Rastislav Trnka, the chairman of the Košice Self-Governing Region, accepted the award at the gala in France. He described the achievement as a significant success that increases international awareness of the region’s uniqueness and opens doors to a global audience.
