The Challenge

How can the unique atmosphere of this festival be captured and shared?

The Goldie Collective’s response

Maybe a 500-strong torchlit parade from Stirling Castle? Plus multi-venue live coverage across digital channels? Not forgetting an opening VIP reception, and audiences of 10,000. We delivered all of this and more – on time and on budget – reinforcing the spirit and atmosphere of Stirling. Case closed.

‘The secret of Bloody Scotland’s success is that everyone is a winner’.
