Tourism and Events Queensland encourages travellers to get their Queensland face on in new tourism campaign via Rumble Strategic Creative

Tourism and Events Queensland (TEQ) has launched its latest campaign ‘Too Great to Wait’ via Rumble Strategic Creative.

Led by an intercostal-tickling 30 second hero TVC, the campaign invites travellers to discover the inimitable, carefree glow known as Queensland Face – the ultimate souvenir from Australia’s premier holiday destination.

The campaign aims to show Aussies why Queensland is ‘Too Great to Wait’ to book their next holiday.

TEQ’s Ollie Philpot said the campaign was designed to cut-through with an emotive message to spur action: “‘Queensland Face’ is the result of the unmistakable happiness that comes from exploring our beautiful state, where the reef, the rainforest, the best beaches and drives converge to create an unshakable sense of serenity within for all travellers.

“This campaign not only showcases Queensland’s diverse destinations but also launches more than 500 incredible travel deals on Queensland.com that truly make a Queensland adventure Too Great to Wait.”

Says Rhys Venning, Creative Director, Rumble: “Queensland Face hits you right in the happies, just like a Queensland holiday. A pure expression that says it all without saying a word. I mean, who wouldn’t want a resting bliss face? The campaign highlights the real value of a Queensland holiday, which is a feeling that stays with you long after you’ve returned home.”

The campaign runs across television, radio, out of home, social media, and online, and and will extend in coming weeks with partnership sales activity, bringing even more punch to the Too Great to Wait catch cry.
