The Brief

Manchester on tour.
Dolmio on the menu.

To coincide with the Manchester leg of the Oasis tour, Crazy & Co was commissioned to provide a fully wrapped Airstream catering trailer for Dolmio’s “Don’t Look Back in Hanger” activation.

The idea was to introduce Dolmio’s new range of sauces through free pasta samples. The trailer gave the campaign a distinctive home, bringing the brand’s graphics and the food together in one place.

The campaign was timed to coincide with the Manchester leg of the tour.

What We Supplied

Big branding.
A working
sampling space.

Our brief was to provide the fully wrapped Airstream catering trailer. It needed to carry the campaign’s identity while providing the setting for the pasta sampling.

01

A complete Dolmio takeover

The green wrap carried the Dolmio logo, food graphics and the “Don’t Look Back in Hanger” message across the trailer’s bodywork.

02

The product at the centre

Free pasta samples put the new sauces into the experience itself. The Airstream brought the branded exterior and the sampling service together.

The Campaign Idea In Practice

A moment, a message
and something to taste.

The campaign connected its playful headline to the Manchester tour dates, then made the product available to try. Four elements brought that idea together.

01 · Timing

A Manchester moment

The tour dates gave the campaign its context and the “hanger” line its musical nod.

02 · Branding

More than a logo

The full wrap gave the Dolmio name, food imagery and campaign message space across the vehicle.

03 · Sampling

A taste of the new range

Serving the sauces with pasta gave people a way to experience the product as part of a dish.

04 · Format

Branding meets catering

One Airstream provided both a recognisable campaign presence and a base for the sampling activity.

From Campaign Line To Sampling Counter

Branding people could see.
Food they could try.

The Dolmio activation brought a fully wrapped catering trailer and free product sampling into the same campaign. A straightforward brief, with plenty of personality.
