The Approach
Wrapped Media deployed a fleet of fully wrapped vehicles operating in coordinated SWARM formations around the Metro Toronto Convention Centre and key downtown corridors. The activation focused on high-frequency visibility through convoy driving, strategic routing, and extended presence during peak event days. In-vehicle tablets reinforced messaging, while content capture and organic social sharing amplified reach beyond the streets.
The Results
The campaign deployed 5 vehicles and generated over 2.5M impressions, exceeding projections and delivering added bonus value. Vehicles executed 56 hours of SWARM activations around the AutoShow, creating a dominant visual presence. The activation also drove strong organic engagement, with crowds stopping to film, photograph, and interact with the vehicles, turning the fleet into a moving attraction throughout downtown Toronto.
