Events

When it comes to launches, festivals and celebrations, one size doesn't fit all. MediaWise develops bespoke campaigns, and the results speak for themselves. We promote and manage events.

Events

MediaWise is known for its creative approach to events. We plan, deliver and promote events for many different purposes. 

Our most recent successful event included organising four major village events for the 150th anniversary of the Old Colonists' Association of Victoria. We worked with older Victorians to shape events that were appropriate for the organisation, including a travelling history road show. The events attracted over 3,000 people.

Past events have included:

Launch of Living Communities Age Well

We planned and executed the launch of the Living Communities Age Well publication which document the effect that housing, community and social wellbeing had on older people. The event had many prongs including a launch at Parliament House, meetings with philanthropists and politicians, and hard-hat tours of four retirement villages.

150th Festival Daya

MediaWise was contracted to project manage  a celebration of 150 years for the Old Colonists' Association of Victoria. We worked with a team of staff, volunteers and other professional contractors to develop five festival days that offered something for everyone.  We oversaw the program development, including tours of retirement villages, art exhibitions, music, children's activities and a history exhibition.  We developed and wrote marketing materials for the Festival Days including the program, web copy, media releases and other promotional material. We liaised with all relevant emergency services, the venue staff, cafes and others to ensure smooth and inclusive logistics on the day.

Awards

We've been engaged to promote many different Awards over the past 20 years including Diversity at Work, the Victoria Prize and Fellowships and the Premier's Health and Medical Research Awards.  Each of these include: interviewing the winners, writing and editing copy for booklets, media releases, speech writing, media training and media liaison.
