Cre8ive Wisdom, Dorset’s strategic marketing and creative agency maintains its strong reputation for strategic social media and digital marketing services, by taking on The Classical Festival Company’s Serenata Festival social media campaign.
The UK’s first ever classical music festival that takes place on the August Bank Holiday weekend from the 26th-28th August in Kimmeridge, Dorset, brings together elements from a traditional classical music concert and wraps it up in a rock festival format. The festival has been shaped using a brand new element and concept, with five stages and top headline acts including the beautiful Katherine Jenkins, Russell Watson, Blake, Faryl Smith, Benjamin Grosvenor and Geoff Sewell.
Situated against the backdrop of the Jurassic Coast, Serenata will be taking place on the Isle of Purbeck, on a private site, set to be the event of the summer. The main stage will fall away to expose the beautiful ocean where festival goers will be able to gaze at the beautiful sunset whilst serenaded by the sweet sound of classical music from some of the UK’s top acts.
As part of the festival’s social media campaign, Cre8ive Wisdom has created Facebook Pages, YouTube content, daily blog posts, forum updates and website articles dedicated to the festival. Fans and followers alike are able to keep up to date on recent developments on the festival, links to relevant articles, access to photos, links to the blog site, competitions and the opportunity to participate in discussions relating to the festival.
In addition to this, Cre8ive Wisdom has been regularly ‘tweeting’ about the festival with links to press coverage, photographs, competitions and blog articles, gaining more and more online media interest. As well as producing their own ‘tweets’, many celebrities who are involved in the festival have tweeted and ‘re-tweeted’ Cre8ive Wisdom’s posts, including those from Damien Hirst, Faryl Smith, Shlomo and Blake. Twitter activity has cultivated a huge and direct list of interested parties and has reached hundreds of thousands of people with news of the festival.
Cre8ive Wisdom Company WiseGuy Neil Armstrong said “As soon as we found out about Serenata, we wanted to get involved. Luckily we were approached to develop the social media part of the overall marketing programme, which has also led to taking over all of the digital media, online PR and the website for the festival, as well as local PR & marketing tactics. The impact of a well planned social media campaign has produced instant wins, as we spread the word of the festival, which will become an annual event. By engaging directly with potential festival goers and lovers of classical music, we have been able to grow the online awareness and create a social media buzz, which has in-turn led directly to ticket sales. The power of social media is coming of age and the results of the serenata campaign.”
Serenata will be the perfect summer location for keen classical music lovers and those looking for a different kind of festival that creates a sense of elegance and occasion.
To ensure that you don’t miss out on what the Sunday Times recently termed one of the top 5 events to be seen at this summer (along with Monaco GP, Wimbledon, Glastonbury and the World Cup in Africa), you will have to act quickly to secure your tickets, which start at just £55.
