The latest TVC (above) launched Monday completes a campaign that kicked off in late May with the release of the Sydney Stack and Barcelona Omelette, followed by the Atlanta Pork McRib and the London Fish and Fries.
The campaign, which also included radio spots, centered on two young guys who enthusiastically watch the Games while fantasizing about McDonald’s bringing them flavours from around the world.
“The challenge to stand out during the Olympics demands a distinctive, yet relevant association between the brand and the games," said DDB Group Sydney Executive Creative Director, Dylan Harrison. "The sweet spot for us lands on the super fan.”
The campaign also included outdoor and online activity.
