EditorTVCs, News Make a Comment

AUCKLAND & SYDNEY, Sunday: Special Group NZ & Australia have combined resources to launch Tourism New Zealand’s new global brand marketing campaign100% Pure Welcome – 100% New Zealand.

The campaign is presented- in English & Te Reo – as a global gesture of welcome. “New Zealanders are opening their hearts and home towns to the world, with locals from across the entire country sharing a ‘Good Morning World’ welcome message from their very own sunrise, every day for the next year,” says Tourism NZ ceo Stephen England-Hall.


“The global launch is across TV, cinema, OOH, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Tourism NZ’s digital and social channels.”


“We’re taking advantage of the fact we’re the first in the world to see the sun.”

Among the first welcome messages to be shared with the world are an adventure-seeking Southlander waking up with a canyon swing, a wannabe hobbit, a shoulder-nibbling horse, a group of teenagers in Northland giving lessons for an early morning jetty jump and a very enthusiastic parasailer.

The first Good Morning World welcome message aired in NZ this morning.

Australia will be the first market to drive the global campaign launch across television, cinema, out of home, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, as well as Tourism NZ’s digital and social channels.
