CampaignDescription
ANZ Bank is one of Australia’s largest financial institutions. Since 2007, ANZ has supported the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras — one of world’s largest marches for gay rights. This year they became the event’s Principal Partner.
We were looking to do something fun, meaningful and relevant for ANZ’s banking brand. We wanted people on Sydney’s streets to interact with the bank and help spread their message of diversity and inclusion — all in keeping with the fabulous, celebratory spirit of the modern Mardi Gras.
So we transformed central Sydney ATMs into dazzling GAYTMs.
Effectiveness
Total media impressions: 62+ million.
Metro news coverage in every Australian state

Sydney’s tourist buses re-routed to pass the GAYTM locations.
Normally, a receipt roll in the ANZ Oxford St ATM lasts one week. The first rainbow-coloured receipt roll in the ANZ Oxford St GAYTM lasted one hour.
Implementation
Ten unique GAYTMs, inspired by gay and lesbian culture, were installed on Sydney’s busiest streets for three weeks surrounding the Mardi Gras. Bejewelled by hand in rhinestones, sequins, studs, leather, denim and fur, each GAYTM was a riot of colour and textures to celebrate the festival and show ANZ’s support for diversity.
The display screens on the GAYTMs were changed to carry messages such as ‘Hello gorgeous’ and ‘Happy Mardi Gras!’.
The GAYTMs also dispensed rainbow coloured receipts with the message ‘Cash out and proud’. And during the campaign, ANZ donated all GAYTM operator fees to non-profit Gay and Lesbian charity organisation, Twenty10.
The creation, installation, and delighted public reactions to the GAYTMs became short webfilms. Content was then uploaded to Instagram, YouTube, Flickr, Twitter and Facebook.
