Nissan National Dealer Meeting

The Brief

Leading global car manufacturer, Nissan Motor Company, turned to Destination Events and Encore to deliver a stand-out bespoke vehicle launch event for their latest fleet of cars. Hosted over three days in May, the event comprised a rolling two-day National Dealer Meeting at Nissan’s Australia’s new HQ in Mulgrave, with the third day a live stream of the Nissan APAC Town Hall and model launch to staff who couldn’t attend in person. A prestigious Gala Event was also held at the iconic Park Hyatt Melbourne.

The Solution

With all eyes on the four new models, Destination & Encore’s pitch-winning solution was a large custom stage design using LED walls that not only met the brief, but it also exceeded expectations on what was achievable within their new head office’s innovative display area. Being a Dealer facing event, the brief was to create a vibe and an environment that got the Dealer Network excited about the new models and motivated to sell.

Carefully considered audio equipment was implemented into the design to eliminate any echoes and feedback from the large display area made of tiles and glass. For visuals we installed several screens around the room to ensure all 200 Dealers could see the hype reels accompanying each car reveal. Encore’s lighting designers ensured all four models were heroed with added movement and colours to create an energetic atmosphere.

To compliment the first day of formal proceedings, Dealers and VIP guests were invited to attend a glamorous gala dinner in Park Hyatt Melbourne’s main ballroom to network and reflect on the exciting new products in the pipeline. Nissan also announced its FY21 ELITE Dealer Excellence winners during the evening.

The result:

Thank you Encore for your professional and personal contribution to the success of the recent Nissan National Dealer Meeting. Destination only aligns themselves with the best in business. All major events are the sum of many parts, and we are judged by not only the strong ties we have with our preferred suppliers but also any weak links we may align ourselves too as well. This year’s event was deemed a major success by our long-standing customer in Nissan and the job Encore played in that was huge. Please pass on my thanks to your team and I look forward to the next project we work on together.
