OVERVIEW

Execution

At the stadium, outdoor and ambient media drove Carlsberg presence for fans at the game. The Liberty Hall building is one of the tallest and most iconic in Dublin city and exclusively accessing an illumination project we were able to bring Carlsberg’s sponsorship to life in the city too – for the many fans not at the games. We delivered the three pillars as follows;Involve: Windows became pixels in bringing animated clips to life; transforming the building into a dynamic billboard. These animations were user generated via a microsite - encouraged with a competition to win VIP tickets to the matches.

Inspire: The top floor delivered on branding; the Carlsberg “C” sat in the corner and the campaign tag line circled. For two of the biggest fixtures, against Italy and Montenegro, Carlsberg broadcast live via abstract interpretation of play.

Inform: The top floor during these matches delivered live results.

Outcome

This was a media first in Ireland that delivered high impact and media cut through. On average, over 100,000 people saw this light show every day for the World Cup Qualifier campaign period (5th – 14th October). The 15 eligible user generated Football animations that were used were displayed from dusk until dawn everyday along with branded idents. We estimate a cost per view at approximately €0.03 per day which is considerably inexpensive versus other media. We captured imaginations, not only tapping into the atmosphere at the time, but adding to it.
