How can a sporting brand make more of the largest Indian cricket fan gathering during the ICC World Cup?
During the ICC World Cup, PUMA hosted the largest Indian cricket fan gathering in Manchester, with supporters from all over the globe commemorating 20 years of following Team India around the world. Forming part of PUMA’s Sockthem campaign, WLLX created and managed a sponsor activation to amplify campaign reach and create content to be shared through PUMA India’s social media channels.
Green screen activation
To generate great social media content, WLLX developed and oversaw PUMA’s green screen activation, where guests could pose with PUMA Sockthem merchandise and have their image superimposed onto a selection of branded cricket related campaign assets. The fun snaps were then emailed to guests with a call to action to share the images on social media.
Artist management
For the evening of entertainment, WLLX was responsible for both artist management and artist logistics for Indian rapping sensation, Divine, who performed the official campaign song Sockthem live on the night.
The green screen sponsor activation proved to be hugely popular and PUMA India measured a 20% audience engagement rate. The green screen content was shown on PUMA’s Instagram channel, reaching over 305k Indian fans.
