In a historic first, Japanese animation powerhouse Studio Ghibli has been awarded the honorary Palme d'Or at the 77th edition of the Cannes Film Festival on May 20, 2024. This marks the first time a studio has received this prestigious accolade as a collective prize. The award was presented by director J.A. Bayona, and Gorō Miyazaki, the son of Studio Ghibli co-founder Hayao Miyazaki and Ghibli Park Creative Development manager, received a standing ovation as he entered the Grand Lumiere. Studio Ghibli, known for its Oscar-winning films, continues to be celebrated for its contributions to animation, including the recent documentary on 'The Boy and the Heron.'

Hayao Miyazaki and The Heron is an unbelievable gift to Ghibli fans. Bracingly intimate (and not just cause it literally opens with a pixelated shot of Miyazaki’s junk in a hot tub), painstakingly detailed, heartbreakingly focused on Takahata… could’ve watched forever. #Cannes
