2025 Weekend

We were brought in under UGroup to handle content production across the full three-day event, including the build, the charity dinner, the main event and brunch. As the inaugural edition, the content couldn't just document the weekend. It had to define it.

We delivered a full suite of social assets, shot and published live on site. The content went on to become the primary marketing campaign for the 2026 edition, which sold out 8,000 tickets.
