‘The House Party’. Powered by V The Insight

• Actual self + Brand = Ideal Self

• 18-24 y/o’s live to party. Their social calendar is always full and it’s a constant battle for supremacy in the social world.

• Their social interactions live through online networks and their profiles tell a story of how they wish to be perceived.

• This group are constantly looking for ways to project this Ideal Self and ‘The House Party’. Powered by V represents the perfect opportunity to do so.

The House Party

• You show us you know how to throw the most awesome house party which would echo for years. The reward? We’ll let you host ours.

• We take 3 of the greatest music acts of our time, 3 venues and 3 separate locations on the same night ,at precisely the same time.

• The catch? You have no idea who will walk onto that stage. All you know, is that it’ll be unforgettable.

• Turning a great occasion with your mates, into the most memorable night which will live on through online social interactions.

How to EnterFacebook App – Your House Party. powered by V

• Using the current 315,000+ Facebook fans, and the discover drivers, we direct consumers to enter ‘The House Party’ gaming app.

• In the mould of Farmville, we create an entry mechanic in the form of a basic interactive game that sets users the task of creating and designing their version of the ultimate house party online, within Facebook.

• Users are encouraged to invite their friends to attend their House Party (Sharing/Posting a ticket on the friends wall). When these friends RSVP, the ‘host’s’ house party is rewarded one vote.
