PARIS COMIC CON – MEDIATISING

Challenge

Paris Comic Con, the unmissable pop culture convention for fans of comics, science fiction and TV.

Increase the visibility of Paris Comic Con ahead of the event and attract a higher number of attendees.

Action plan

  • Press conference
  • Guerrilla-style PR: teasers and previews for the media
  • Exclusive, free partnership with 20 Minutes: a special edition where 20 Minutes’ journalists were transformed into the big heroes of DC Comics and Marvel, with a fun and creative tone. This was released a week before the convention.
  • Key press targets were invited to the event, and interviews with top stars were arranged.

RESULTS

  • 639 press clippings (advertising value equivalency: €3,500,000)
  • 25 interviews with the convention director (TV, radio and print)
  • 39 TV spots, including on CNEWS and national daily news programs
  • 24 radio features, including on France Inter and BFM
  • A special edition of 20 Minutes, 20 Minutes x Paris Comic-Con, of which 918,200 copies were distributed throughout France on 20 October 2017, alongside an online version that reached almost 6,215,000 unique visitors
  • A peak in sales of convention tickets one week before the event
