We are NE1’s new creative partner
Following a competitive pitch, we have been chosen as NE1’s new creative partner to bring to life everything that is happening across the city.
We will handle the creative marketing for NE1’s flagship events, including Newcastle Restaurant Week, Screen on the Green, Summer in the City and Newcastle’s Christmas.
Our Managing Director, Kirsty Ostell said: “This is a flagship partnership for us, we have been based in Newcastle for 20 years and love everything about our city, so to be given the opportunity to work with the NE1 team to help share that message is an absolute dream! Newcastle has undergone a transformation in recent years, and we are delighted to be NE1’s creative partner to help drive future success and play a role in promoting the city locally, nationally and internationally.”
Ben Whitfield, Director of Communications at NE1 said: “As we enter a new BID term it’s exciting to start working with a new creative team. We were impressed by O’s enthusiasm and knowledge of the city and our campaigns, as well as their analytical approach which we think will deliver an impactful return for our business. We can’t wait to get started.”
We will kick off with a fresh campaign for Summer in the City, a lively programme of free events, public artworks and street installations across the city during the school holidays.
Since its inception, NE1’s Summer in the City has grown year-on-year and in 2023, NE1 worked with local businesses to host over 180 events across six weeks.
