Why is this work relevant for Brand Experience & Activation?

Instead of doing the common car unveil for newly launched cars. We created an engaging event where we transported the guests into the realm of GLE and GLC separately, by letting them experience the lifestyle of the targeted audience of each car respectively through an exciting journey. The realm was realized through creating a corner for each car, of which represented a glimpse of the targeted audience lifestyle Between the 2 corners we built a TOMMY HILFIGER store, since both groups have fashion as a common ground

Background

Creating a memorable unconventional car reveal where the guest can see and touch the cars, enjoy their time and discover which life style the relate to.

Describe the creative idea (20% of vote)

For GLC the targeted audience personality is young 25 and over couple who are active and enjoy sports activity, travel, and fashion For GLE the targeted audience is more of a settled and successful individual who already has family, enjoys classic music, 5 stars restaurants and lounges, and fashion. Based on that, we transformed Mercedes-Benz showroom into a European city. And we created two corners, each reflected the life style of the targeted audience of each car with creating a common area in the middle to connects both corners.
