The Challenge

Standing out in a crowded market

Belfast’s leisure market is highly competitive, with multiple attractions targeting similar audiences. The challenge lay in creating an advertising strategy that communicated the uniqueness of Prison Island, team-based, immersive fun for all ages, while cutting through the noise of seasonal promotions from other entertainment providers.
