“The Most Immersive Experience is Reality”: New Campaign for the Region of Valencia tourism invites us to enter a digital world

  • Serviceplan Spain has created the tourism promotion campaign for the Region of Valencia for third consecutive year. 
  • The copy for the spot was constructed from conversations and real expressions extracted from the virtual world and rhymed by the Spanish rapper Arkano, who also provides his voice.
  • In a world obsessed with Virtual Reality, the Metaverse and virtual experiences, the Region of Valencia is positioned as the authentic destination, claiming the importance of enjoying and living real moments.

New technologies, artificial intelligence, virtual friends and increasingly immersive video games are taking us further and further away from reality. Faced with this paradigm, the latest campaign of the Region of Valencia shows real places, activities, experiences and moments. The new campaign developed by Serviceplan Spain encourages tourists to have unique, unfiltered experiences, while reflecting on the importance of authenticity versus digital.

The protagonist chosen to voice the campaign is Arkano, a Spanish rapper with roots in the Region of Valencia, and winner of the Guinness World record for improvisation. As a source of inspiration, he analysed real conversations and expressions used in the virtual world, composing an exciting and emotional story, with parallels between both: the real and the digital worlds. The spot features Arkano’s rhymed texts, accompanied by images and an audio-visual language characteristic of digital productions, closes with a tagline aligned with the concept of Mediterranean Live: “The most immersive experience is reality”.

The spot, directed by Cayetano Gonzalez at Isola Films, brings together everything that the Region of Valencia has to offer travellers; experiences, places and feelings that have to be seen and lived to be believed, and cannot be found in the digital environment, but must be experienced. These experiences range from; enjoying the light of the Mediterranean, mountain landscapes, descending a river, sailing through crystal clear waters, contemplating the views from a cliff, its gastronomy, and catching unique sunsets. All this combines to make one of the most important objectives of the campaign: the promotion of the tourism products of the Region of Valencia.

The new campaign is a 360º campaign, integrated, innovative and, above all, authentic, with a tone and a visual code that brings people closer to the destination, encouraging reflection and connection with the universal language of emotion.

The creative has been adapted to hundreds of pieces for various online and offline media, articulated around the different tourism products, target audiences and seasonal seasons, to promote tourism throughout the year.

The campaign will be broadcast in Spanish and Valencian, nationally and regionally, and has also been translated and adapted for international markets.
