Intro

The Back to Campus Tour was designed as a high-impact, national sampling initiative timed to one of the busiest and most formative moments of the academic year: orientation week.

Highlights

National Campus Strategy
Activated across 10 university and college campuses spanning 7 provinces, delivering a cohesive national presence while adapting execution to each institution. Every stop was planned in collaboration with campus stakeholders to ensure activations aligned with high-traffic days, major orientation programming, and student movement patterns.

High-Impact Placement & Timing
Worked directly with each school to identify the most effective locations on campus—central quads, student hubs, and key transition points—where large volumes of students naturally gathered. By prioritizing timing and placement, the tour ensured strong visibility and engagement without disrupting campus operations.

Surprise-and-Delight SamplingDesigned each activation to feel energetic, unexpected, and social, turning routine campus movement into moments of excitement. The approach emphasized approachability and ease, encouraging trial while creating positive brand associations during students’ first days on campus.
