The Campaign
Extra Bubblemint Treehouse Store.
Reliving childhood through an on-ground, online
and Virtual Reality experience.
Creative Execution
In November 2016, we opened the Extra Bubblemint Treehouse Store in Dubai Creek Park, exclusively for adults. The charming, eye-candy 4.5m x 5m treehouse store was supported by a robust steel base and was constructed within 48 hours. It was also fitted with nine hidden cameras that, for a week, captured over 3,000 grown-ups trying the gum and having child-like fun and games with a retro video game console, a polaroid camera, a bubble blower and a wide range of toys imported from their childhood days — not to mention, an exhilarating exit slide.
We then shared the activation film on social media to give everyone the taste of Bubblemint. Everyone could also visit the treehouse store virtually with our immersive 360-degree VR headsets in key supermarkets around the region.
• 3,000+ visitors over a week
• Over 8 million total online views in 3 days
• 17x higher click-through rate than market average
• Extra Bubblemint became the top-selling Wrigley gum
• Extra gum market share increased by a whopping 4%
• The Treehouse Store turned adults into children again
Extra Bubblemint is a gum for adults that offers the taste of childhood. So for its launch event, we brought a childhood dream to life by opening a Treeehouse Store in Dubai Creek Park — exclusively for adults.
It’s a new experiential advertising medium that welcomed over 3,000 people. The online film was watched over 8 million times. Everyone could also visit the treehouse store virtually with our immersive 360-degree VR headsets in key supermarkets around the region.
It resulted in over 4.5 PR and media impressions and made Extra Bubblemint the top-selling Wrigley gum.
Target audience:
Grown-ups (28+) who are young at heart and love to set their inner child free.
Approach:
When we were kids, we were at our happiest. Life was like a pack of gum. Wrigley’s Extra Bubblemint tastes just like those times.
So we positioned the gum as the taste of childhood. And on Children’s Day, we launched it by bringing a childhood dream to life.
