The summer campaign will launch in NI and ROI on 24th June.
The campaign is focused on Aspiring Families and Social Instagrammers in NI and Active Maximisers in ROI. These segments have been identified though research as those with the highest propensity to take a short break over the summer period.
The campaign is designed to support the industry by driving short breaks and inspire our segments to see, do and spend more on a short break in Northern Ireland.
The campaign builds knowledge of what Northern Ireland has to offer and delivers clear and compelling reasons to visit for these segments.
A new creative treatment for Aspiring Families (NI) launches on TV, radio social and digital channels.
The successful “Choose your giant adventure ”platform for Active Maximisers (ROI) and Social Instagrammers (NI) will be live again, encouraging those segments to create their own Giant Adventure through an interactive platform.
The summer campaign will be supported by a PR and Social content plan extending the reach and impact of the activity.
To support the industry later in the year, two further bursts of activity are planned for Autumn 2022 and Spring 2023.
The Autumn burst of activity in ROI will focus on Indulgent Relaxers and Open Minded Explorers, the spring activity will focus on Open Minded Explorers and Active Maximisers
