Execution

We needed to leverage TUI’s sponsorship of NZ cricket during times when traditional alcohol advertising was banned. Enter TUI’s ’Catch a Million’: Fans purchased TUI instore for a free Tee, wearing it to live cricket matches where catching a ‘six’ won them $100K instantly (One catch per game – total pool $1.2M). Run at 12 season matches, earned media to promoted the activity as commentators, cameramen, presenters and even players integrated it into live content. The crowds turned TUI orange as 1 in 4 adults wore what became the unofficial uniform of summer cricket and match attendance leapt 54% after the first catch.
