Lasers, fire & a sea of nacho cheese

The first national campaign from the world’s largest ticket marketplace, StubHub, premieres this evening with a primetime spot on ESPN’s telecast of Opening Day. The integrated campaign from D/C features TV, print, outdoor and wild postings and touts StubHub as the place to get dream tickets for sports, concerts and more. And what do dream tickets afford the holder? Why nothing less than a dream experience, of course.

A concert TV spot, complete with flying, pyrotechnic-laden drum platform, was created in addition to the baseball spot and both will run on the major networks as well as Bravo, E!, ESPN and Comedy Central. Accompanying print ads can be found in Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated, People and Esquire. And digital out-of-home and wild postings will be present in most major markets with a large presence in Times Square.
