Abu Dhabi’s ‘One Summer Isn’t Enough’ campaign is back, aiming to showcase the emirate as a top summer destination.
This year, Experience Abu Dhabi introduces the ‘101 Abu Dhabi Do’s’ guide, curated by visitors themselves.
From famous landmarks to hidden gems, these experiences offer a diverse range of activities to explore the city’s essence. Presented on a custom map, the Abu Dhabi Do’s bring every corner of the city to life with vibrant visuals.
The map and a host of immersive experiences take centre stage across several mixed- media content pieces, produced by Dejavu and animated by ByFiction, that head this comprehensive 360 campaign.
In Abu Dhabi, three celebrities – Ranveer Singh, Liu Yifei, and Dawood Hussein – are back in town, ready to explore the city’s offerings. With personalised maps, they embark on a journey to uncover new and unique experiences, even in familiar surroundings, catering to the tastes of the Indian, Chinese, and Arab Gulf markets.
As for the global market films, real first-time experiences take centre stage. Following first-time visitors from across the world, these vlog-style content pieces document the fun authentic adventures of new visitors in Abu Dhabi.
Real connections, real opinions, and a whole lot of real banter later, these quirky accounts show us that Abu Dhabi has more than 101 reasons to keep coming back for.
