Entry Title: Erase Valentine’s Day
Brand: Cadbury 5 Star
Client: Mondelez
Entrant Company: Ogilvy India
Description: Background: Valentine’s Day can be quite insufferable. So for many years now, Cadbury 5 Star has been helping people escape it and ‘do nothing’ instead.
Idea: We performed a ‘time travel’ experiment where 3 passengers who hate Valentine’s Day successfully skipped the entire day, in just one minute. How? They boarded a vessel which crossed the International Date Line between American Samoa and Samoa at exactly 11:59 pm on 13 February 2024 (American Samoa Time), thereby skipping directly to 12:00am on 15 February - the local time on the other side. The entire operation was live-streamed to millions of viewers, and the campaign rapidly became the hottest topic across social media platforms, reaching over 230 million users, with 1 million+ users reposting the trailer.
Results: $8 Million Earned PR. 1.3 Billion impressions. 2.2 Million interactions.
