Mohegan Sun Moves Into Wall Street Interactive golf-themed advertising campaign debuts in financial district (June 2, 2014) Uncasville, CT- Mohegan Sun is playing its hand on Wall Street with a golf-themed, interactive advertising campaign. The multi-media campaign is encouraging New York’s most competitive industry, suits in finance, to tee-up and take a swing at its creative storescape by using mobile phones as their drivers. The move is designed to display the destination as the perfect nearby escape from the city, and more specifically to enlighten this group to the little known fact that the destination owns a world class golf course in addition to its other amenities including a spa, arena, restaurants, shops, nightclubs and more. The Mohegan Sun storescape will be live at 40 Wall Street throughout the month of June. On June 2nd, 5th, 11th, 18th, and 25th, Mohegan Sun brand ambassadors will be on site to help passersby transform their smartphones into a virtual golf club. Players can then use their smartphones to take a swing and drive their virtual ball through the fairway displayed on an 8’ x 10’ linked Lcd wall. Participants get three swings per turn to compete in a longest drive competition. The participant with the longest drive each week will win a trip for two to Mohegan Sun including overnight accommodations, dinner for two and a round of golf at The Mohegan Sun Golf Club. Mohegan Sun has partnered with Media Storm, Monster Media, Taxi NYC and Primal NY all leaders in the interactive, creative advertising space to create, design and install this entertaining and visually informative display. With the goal of driving New York’s affluent, financial target audience to Mohegan Sun’s flagship property in Connecticut, while at the same time highlighting the property’s amenities. “Our New York-based customers have told us they want much more than the limited, local gaming options,” said George Galinsky, Sr. Vice President of Marketing Communications. “This campaign is designed to be fun and educational, showing financial district consumers our exciting amenities. We know that once they take the short trip to Mohegan Sun, our high level of personalized guest service and exciting nightlife and leisure activities will fit them to a tee.” Supporting the fun taking place streetside, Mohegan Sun’s Drive Competition is supported throughout 88 buildings on Wall Street in elevators via Captivate Network screens featuring short custom videos showcasing all the Mohegan Sun offers. A LinkedIn promotion supports the effort as well. This push follows Mohegan Sun’s sponsorship of the ESPN Sports Film Festival at the TriBeCa Film Festival in April handled by Scout Sports and Entertainment division, and last year’s subway station domination and street furniture advertising execution which was widespread in and around Wall Street.
