But before the run the major responsibility was to deport this van from Mumbai to Pune as these buses were not available in Pune.

The necessary documentation and permissions required for the activity were processed in advance. The creative artwork was designed to showcase the thrill and excitement related to IPL and depict the ‘Rising spirit of Supergiants’. The bus fabrication was undertaken in Mumbai and it was deported to Pune well in advance before the activity.

The bus was further furbished with balloons and printed flags with gulf logo. To create a buzz a DJ console was arranged to make it a musical trip and the famous IPL trumpets were also kept ready for the fans to make some noise and cheer for their team. The bus with its appealing bright colours and LED stickers became every pedestrian’s attraction. Each passerby noticed the supergiant fan bus ready to depart from the pick up station fully loaded with its fans.

The journey from the pickup to the Stadium was that of two hours and we happened to make every moment exciting with Radio coverage, DJ, games, activities that kept the fans engaged and promoters kept the deck alive by their gimmicks. Besides that snacks were also arranged on the deck. For the fans it was an experience of a lifetime. We also created a unique LED lit T-shirts for the promoters to be worn in the stadium that flashed a four, six and out with just a press of a button.

Gulf had never done such an activity for IPL and we were delighted to surpass their every expectation with this unusual activity for the brand and the Pune Rising Supergiants.

Outcome

The specially fabricated supergiant fan van caught the attention of every commuter of Pune on its route. It gave a wide visibility to the brand and also created adequate buzz for the Pune Rising Superstars. The journey gave a lifetime experience to the fans not just on the field but also off the field.
