- Starting in Berlin
Throughout May and June the Subject60 parties will be touring five influential European cities: Berlin, London, Paris, Milan and Madrid, to promote the all-new naughty, sporty and hi-tech Volvo S60.
"With the Subject60 tour for the all-new S60 we want to show a new naughtier side of Volvo and celebrate that Volvo are on the go with sales figures up 26.5 per cent world wide compared to last year. We want to reach out to a new target audience, a creative young city crowd which the S60 is perfect for. We are going to meet them in their natural environments through their interests", says Lukas Dohle, Head of Social Media & Live Communication at Volvo Car Corporation, "We aspire on making them spread the word - that Volvo has changed!"
Subject60: 5 weeks, 5 cities, 5 parties
Subject60 is the name of Volvo Cars' lifestyle campaign for the all-new S60 with the mission to show a new side of Volvo. The campaign emphasizes on social media and blogger involvement and culminates in events in five major European cities. Prior to each event there will be an augmented reality hunt for tickets on each market. In collaboration with hand picked lifestyle bloggers code cubes will be hidden in naughty locations around the city. By using an augmented reality app on their iPhone 3GS or Google Android phones, blog readers will be given clues to discover the exact naughty locations of the hidden cubes.
On May 27th Subject60 kicks off with a lavish party in Berlin, followed by four more nights of naughtiness in London, Milan, Paris and Madrid. The tour is celebrating the launch of the all-new S60, with its cutting-edge design driving dynamics, and innovative safety. The parties will be featuring the renowned artist and fashion icon Lykke Li and the blogging photographer, providing - Facehunter.
