Icelandic Glacial was out in force at the right places on the French Riviera this week, as it lent its support to a number of events at the annual MIDEM music trade fair; the World’s most influential music trade event.
First up for Icelandic Glacial was the glitzy NRJ Music Awards (France’s answer to the Grammys), which traditionally raises the curtain on MIDEM week and was held at Cannes exclusive 3.14 hotel. This years event attracted big name performers including Madonna, Robbie Williams, 50 Cent and Black eyed peas to name just a few?
