In the summer of 2017, Disney and Pixar wanted to reach young adult audiences and reconnect them with the Cars franchise. We developed a high octane influencer-led activation with Cars 3 at its heart – a road trip from Seligman, AZ (the real-life Radiator Springs) to Pixar Studios in Northern California, celebrating the themes of the franchise with challenges and activities along the way. The mix of top creators enabled Disney to engage with a variety of huge young adult audiences in the build-up to the movie’s UK release.
