Campaign

To promote Avatar Fire and Ash, Disney launched a nationwide DOOH roadblock campaign designed to dominate key moments in the lead up to Christmas. Running across consecutive days, the campaign aligned with peak travel and shopping periods to maximise visibility and impact.

Strategy

The campaign took over screens during Frantic Friday and Super Saturday, targeting high traffic time slots to reach audiences when they were out shopping and travelling. This strategic timing ensured strong reach and reinforced anticipation for the film during a highly competitive period.
