Oracle Experience carted home Best Experiential Marketing Agency of the Year award – Gold, and Most Innovation Driven Brand Activation Agency of the Year, Platinum categories in the 2015 Nigeria Brand Awards.

The laurels are in recognition of its creativity and innovation in brand activation and experiential marketing as well as breathtaking campaigns for clients.

 

Oracle had won several laurels in the past, including MarketingEdge’s 2014 Outstanding Experiential Agency, Brand Journalists Association of Nigeria’s Brand Activation influencer with its Nescafe Hot Air Balloon campaign, 2013 Best Effort in Innovation, 2013 Polaris Excellence Awards, and 2011 Institute of Direct Marketing of Nigeria’s West Africa World Class Experiential Marketing Service Consultant.

 

The latest accolades come on the heels of Oracle’s world record breaking Christmas bottle tree with 8,000 bottles of Star beer bottle covering a 2.7 kilometre stretch. Prior to this, the world record was 1,000 bottles achieved in China.

 

Another feat was the Gulder crate tunnel using over 3,200 crates of Gulder beer to build the ultimate corridor that led to the place the new Gulder bottle was launched.

 

Other works by Oracle include Amstel Show Time, a musical presentation which was first of its kind in Nigeria, Heineken Green light party with extraordinary video mapping and using the Heineken bottles to create a selfie wall.

 

They also include the star triple X experience centre, the hot air balloon activation for Nescafe, Gulder club ultimate hosted in a 70-metre ultimate liner just like Titanic, and the beer and health symposium.
