SUCCESS METRICS
To kick off the holiday shopping season, The PR Boutique created, executed and branded the Highland Village Ferrari Festival in Houston, Texas. Through a partnership with the Ferrari Club of Houston, members of the club were invited to display their Ferrari’s at Highland Village during a three-hour, family-friendly, Sunday afternoon activation at Highland Village. The much-anticipated event benefited Texas Children’s Cancer Center.
Dozens of Ferraris were showcased in the elegant setting of Highland Village
Thousands of sightseers perused the Ferrari display, frequented Highland Village shops and dined at Highland Village restaurants
Valobra Jewelers hosted a pre-reception for all Ferrari owners displaying cars, and The PR Boutique worked with Highland Village retailers to create a special Ferrari Festival activation in stores
Our agency worked with Highland Village restaurants Escalante’s, RA Sushi and PF Chang’s to create beautiful food stations in the Highland Village parking lot
Funds raised through the car display entry benefited Texas Children’s Cancer Center, helping position Highland Village as a leader in the philanthropic community
Highland Village salon owner, Michael Kemper teamed up with KTRK-TV ABC 13’s Rebecca Spera to host the event
The event was covered by many of the top Houston media outlets and promoted throughout Highland Village, Highland Village retailers, Ferrari Club of Houston and Texas Children’s Cancer Center
