The challenge.

The partnership between JD and Sevilla FC had an opportunity beyond the stadium: to take the relationship between the two brands to a place where fans could experience it up close. The in-store event had to bring together the players, the public and JD in a shared experience.

Beyond the meet-up, a mixed zone and the shoot of a YouTube show had to be woven into the flow of the store.

What we did.

01

In-store activation.

We shaped an event tied to the sponsorship and the store opening. The meet-up with players turned the JD space into a direct point of contact between Sevilla FC and its fans.

02

Production and coordination.

We organised how the in-store event unfolded, coordinating the meet & greet, the mixed zone and the different moments of the event so the public, the players and the shoot could share the same space.

03

Content.

We built the shoot of a YouTube show into the activation. That way, the conversations with the players and the moments shared in store also lived on in audiovisual form.

Results.
