Tourism Tasmania reinvigorates ‘Come Down for Air’ for summer via BMF

Tourism Tasmania has launched the latest iteration of its ‘Come Down for Air’ platform, with a new summer campaign from BMF.

The campaign leverages the destination’s long-standing brand platform to remind Australian travelers to take a proper break when they holiday in Tasmania over the summer.

The campaign features a 30-second spot that depicts a women curled up on a bed of rocks atop a mountain, enjoying the scenery with her eyes closed. The film highlights the intensity of how it feels to be geographically and culturally remote from the modern mainland during Tasmanian summer.

The spot, along with a 15 second cut down, will roll out across TV and cinema with supporting executions in social, audio, OOH, print and display.

John Fitzgerald, CEO, Tourism Tasmania said: “After a period of COVID lockdowns and interrupted travel, the constraints of modern-day life feel even tighter than they did before, with our lives revolving around an endless drive to do and achieve. We are inviting Aussies to come and experience a holiday where it’s okay to do nothing, or everything, without any judgement. To take a break from the stressors of everyday life, and to experience the little moments of mindfulness and joy in Tassie, whatever that looks like for you.”

David Fraser, creative director, BMF, said: “A decent nap, or a moment to ponder, is an elusive thing. And the way many of us mainlanders wear ‘busy’ as a badge of honour doesn’t help. Inviting people to Tassie to do a whole lot less this summer felt like a compelling antidote to this endless drive, and it’s a lovely spot to have a few cheese dreams.”
