Case Study
Summary
After a long history as a rite of passage for young Australians, Contiki faced challenges from a loss of relevance and a decline in awareness among Gen-Z travellers. The brand's mission became clear: to introduce itself to a new generation and show them what makes Contiki legendary. The campaign sought to re-establish the brand's distinctiveness by reframing its image, igniting an appetite for adventure, and proving that the travellers themselves are the heart of the Contiki experience.
