Brand Showcase and Street Festival Experience
In downtown New Orleans, we curated an exceptional networking and brand experience for 3,400 conference guests. Through meticulous planning, we transformed two square blocks, along with eight bars and restaurants, into 19 distinct spaces where key brands from the MolsonCoors portfolio could showcase their stories and guests could gather insights on upcoming programs for the summer selling months.
Collaborating with the City of New Orleans, we successfully closed down Fulton Street and the surrounding establishments to create a vibrant outdoor reception area, complete with a performance stage for Luke Bryan, a valued partner of Miller Lite. To enhance engagement, each guest received an RFID bracelet enabling them to interact with the various brands and access essential sales information.
The feedback we received from guests regarding the reception experience was overwhelmingly positive, and the RFID interactions generated nearly 300,000 impressions on social media, further amplifying the impact of the event and creating lasting connections between distributors and the MolsonCoors brand portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you coordinate large-scale street festival events with city permits and multi-venue integration for corporate brand showcases?
A: Large-scale street festival coordination for corporate events requires comprehensive municipal coordination, permit management, and multi-venue integration to create seamless brand experiences across outdoor and indoor spaces. We develop detailed event plans that satisfy city requirements for street closures, coordinate with local establishments for venue integration, and manage complex logistics for outdoor staging, vendor access, and crowd flow management. Our approach includes early engagement with municipal authorities, coordination with local business partners, and comprehensive safety and security planning that ensures smooth execution while maximizing brand exposure and attendee engagement throughout the festival environment.
Q: What technology integration strategies work best for large corporate events focused on brand engagement and social media amplification?
A: Effective technology integration for large corporate brand events combines interactive elements with social media amplification tools to create engaging experiences that extend event impact beyond the physical gathering. RFID technology enables personalized interactions with brand stations, seamless data collection for follow-up marketing, and integration with social media platforms for real-time content sharing and engagement tracking. We design technology solutions that enhance rather than complicate the guest experience, providing intuitive interfaces for brand interaction while capturing valuable engagement data that demonstrates event ROI and supports ongoing distributor relationship management and marketing initiatives.
Q: How do you manage entertainment coordination and brand activation logistics for multi-thousand person outdoor corporate events?
A: Multi-thousand person outdoor event coordination requires sophisticated logistics management that integrates high-profile entertainment with brand activation programming while ensuring safety, comfort, and engagement for all attendees. We coordinate with entertainment management teams, local venue operators, and city officials to manage crowd flow, technical requirements, and security protocols for large outdoor gatherings. Our approach includes comprehensive site planning, vendor coordination for staging and production elements, and real-time event management that ensures smooth transitions between brand activations and entertainment programming while maintaining guest safety and maximizing engagement opportunities throughout the festival experience.
