Working with the Central Bid Team at the English FA and with FAs, Government partners, cities, clubs, stadia and stakeholders across England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, we co-ordinated creative communications to showcase our Islands’ unique offer which promises a ground-breaking tournament now the bid has been successful.
- Built relationships with stakeholders across FAs, Government partners, cities, clubs, stadia and stakeholders
- Developed toolkits and activations put into action across UK & Ireland in London, Cardiff, Glasgow, Dublin, Belfast, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool and Newcastle
- Working with the FAs, our team created a historic photograph of the five national team captains – Harry Kane (England), Seamus Coleman (Ireland), Steven Davis (Northern Ireland), Andy Robertson (Scotland) and Aaron Ramsey (Wales)- together for the first time. The creative image was used across media on submission day, from homepages to broadcast backdrops in TV studios.
- Hit headlines and homepages across UK & Ireland and trended no 1 on Twitter on submission day. Read more about the bid on the Guardian, BBC, Sky Sports and many more
- Feedback from UEFA showed the key audiences for EURO as families and 15-25 year olds. Our team created a range of insights looking at how the audiences intersect with social media, sports and live events. These insights were then used as the basis for the creation of a range of local and national engagement campaigns presented as part of the bid, should the tournament be held in UK & Ireland.
