OOH provider Revolution360 is hosting the campaign on its Street Poster network.
Josh Fitzgerald, Victoria head of sales at Revolution360, said: “We are always looking for ways to disrupt and create impact in the out-of-home space, and this campaign ticks all those boxes. The team has done a great job so I’m really excited to see (and hear!) this one.”
Ben Culligan, ANZ marketing and category director at Treasury Wine Estates, added: “19 Crimes Snoop Cali Red needed to be disruptive and different from what we’ve done before. We wanted to do something that would capture the audience’s attention in a quirky and memorable way. Revolution360 has successfully helped us bring this concept to life.”
The campaign will be live from mid-June.
