The Ask

Design and deliver a travel-inspired partner event that brings the Booking.com community together, celebrates shared achievements and creates opportunities for connection throughout the day.

What We Did

We developed the concept, visual direction and guest experience, bringing Booking.com’s brand into the space through destination illustrations, branded installations and a coordinated stage design.

Four interactive activations invited guests to personalise luggage tags, map their journeys, discover their next destination and share their stories on camera. The programme combined a general session and partner awards with a rooftop celebration.

From the early concepts through production and on-site management, we coordinated the details, including stage, sound, lighting and screens.
