Booking.com - "Vamping in Vegas"

Booking.com, the global leader in connecting travelers with the widest choice of incredible places to stay, is launching a new ad campaign to show how it helps travelers get it ridiculously right every time. A continuation of the successful Booking.yeah campaign that celebrates YEAHs experienced throughout the travel journey, the new creative will debut live during the fourth quarter of the Big Game on February 9, bringing to life Booking.com’s ability to cater to every traveler’s unique needs and personalities and “find exactly what they’re booking for.” A sneak peek of the ad can be found on YouTube.com/Bookingcom.

Building on its playful and optimistic creative strategy, the new campaign features a colorful cast of characters - spanning from relatable everyday travelers to beloved cultural icons, The Muppets. Whether it’s Kermit the Frog lounging at a beachfront vacation rental, Miss Piggy booking a high-end boutique hotel, a family finding the perfect resort with a waterpark, or a bachelorette party enjoying a classic Vegas hotel experience, Booking.com makes it easier for everyone to find and book their perfect stay with features such as the easy-to-use app and free cancellation.

“With this campaign, we’re putting the spotlight on the incredible choice, ease and value that Booking.com offers, making it easier for travelers to find exactly what they’re booking for,” said Arjan Dijk, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Booking.com. “This year’s creative celebrates the relatable humor and playful moments of travel planning, showing how Booking.com can meet the needs of every traveler. By blending nostalgia, modern storytelling, and a bit of playful imagination, we’re thrilled to share this with viewers during one of the year’s biggest cultural moments in the U.S., inspiring Americans to plan their next trip with confidence and excitement, whatever their travel need may be.”

With creative developed by Zulu Alpha Kilo, and Mindshare managing the media strategy and planning, the integrated campaign will run across TV (including prime time), streaming, online video, audio, paid social and owned channels. It features the 30-second Big Game spot and a variety of 15-second spots, all of which can be viewed on YouTube.com/@bookingcom, as well as creative assets that will run across social channels.
