Overview
Berlin is Wolt’s most competitive and, at the same time, most important market - which is why Mediaplus opted for a high-impact, locally relevant activation. At the Festival of Lights Berlin, Wolt was given a spectacular presence on the Berlin TV Tower, and the campaign was extended with strong reach via PR and social media. The result was a unique capital city highlight, which emotionally embedded Wolt in Berlin’s urban identity and strengthened the brand’s presence in the Berlin area in a targeted way.
Challenge
Win back Berlin
Berlin is Wolt’s most important and, at the same time, most demanding market. Our client competes with other food delivery providers for attention in a city that is flooded with advertising messages. To assert itself in this attention economy, we at Mediaplus work constantly with Wolt to develop new, innovative ways to present the brand effectively and stand out from the competition.
Our approach: we look for extraordinary platforms that create an emotional connection while guaranteeing maximum visibility. The key question: how do we achieve visibility with a target audience that is already suffering from sensory overload, while remaining locally relevant? How can we charge the brand emotionally and, at the same time, maximise reach?
Solution
An iconic moment
We identified the Berlin Festival of Lights as the perfect stage for an innovative Wolt activation. A light art festival that attracts 3 million visitors annually and reaches up to 1.2 billion people worldwide via social, digital, and traditional media. Following the motto “Win Back Berlin”, we delivered the most spectacular and, for Berliners, the most iconic possible brand activation for Wolt: working closely with the organiser, the creative agency, and technical service providers, a creative light installation was created on the 368-metre-high Berlin TV Tower - the city’s landmark and the tallest structure in Germany. The activation was accompanied, extended, and amplified in terms of reach through PR and social media.
Mediaplus Berlin delivered the strategic planning, the negotiation with the festival organiser, and the cross-media orchestration of all touchpoints. From the initial idea to the final execution, the campaign struck a chord with the city and emotionally embedded Wolt as part of Berlin. Tailored and highly relevant for the local market.
