NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS, October 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism is pleased to announce the launch of the new “Life is Grand” advertising campaign. The campaign highlights the ecological riches, natural wonders, exhilarating adventures and vibrant culture that make life grand on Grand Bahama Island.
“The Northern Bahamas, which includes Grand Bahama Island, was not impacted by Hurricane Joaquin. While the entire Bahamas is united and focused on relief and recovery efforts in the Central and Southern Bahamas, the rest of The Bahamas is open for business and The Ministry of Tourism is spreading that word. Visitors to Grand Bahama Island are inspired and enchanted every single day, and I am proud and honored to present a campaign that showcases the best of this island and gives a taste of our diverse offerings as we seek to give each of our unique islands a strong brand identity,” said Hon. Obie H. Wilchcombe, MP, Minister of Tourism. “This campaign illustrates our creative approach to advertising the multiplicity of our destination and creating a brand identity for Grand Bahama Island.”
The campaign was also developed to increase stopover arrivals, cruise and day trips by ferry and progressively reposition Grand Bahama Island as the easy escape for South Floridians. The campaign will feature multimedia assets that include TV, radio, outdoor, digital, and mobile along with consumer activations in South Florida and social media. Capturing the authentic spirit of Grand Bahama Island, the TV spot is enlivened with a performance by famous Bahamian singer Julien Believe that was recorded specially for the “Life is Grand” campaign. The campaign will be multilingual and will be translated into Spanish and rolled out on top US Hispanic TV and radio stations in Miami and Fort Lauderdale. The TV spot and booking options from South Florida are available on livegrandtoday.com
