Zürcher Kantonalbank: Good Fortune Takes a Trip
Employee Events / Scenography

 

Client: Zürcher Kantonalbank
Job: Concept, planning and staging of two events for a total of 4200 guests

 

The ZKB employees were invited, for an eventful evening, to take off and visit Swiss holidaymakers’ preferred travel destinations around the globe: six countries, expertly brought to life by Livingmedia and extending over more than 8000 square meters at Messe Zürich. The concept included various sets in which the guests could find or test their good fortune.

Here’s a quick flyover of just a few of the many highlights: Among the destinations, there were the colorful rhythmic worlds of exotic dances as well as a great many places where good fortune awaited in the form of exciting games, experiences and moments. Hungry travelers, meanwhile, found an abundance of wonderfully prepared culinary delights lined up for them on the runway. There was even a sports lounge where football/soccer aficionados dying to catch the latest world championship game  – (un-)fortunately coinciding with the ZKB event – could safely land in front of large flat screens. And last, but not least of all, to conclude the evening’s proceedings, the fortunate travelers (i.e., guests) were treated to very sweet live and DJ sounds in the vein of Zucchero.
