Papa John's has launched its latest global marketing campaign to promote its new 'Fresh Soul' range of pizza offerings. Inspired by the "universal power of music," the new campaign will include a live music event on September 29 featuring British neo-soul artist BaggE.
Dubbed the 'House of Papa,' the live music event will include three other NME selected artists and will be broadcast live on Instagram and Tik Tok. "NME is bringing the good music, ByteSquad and their global friends are bringing the good times, and Papa John's is proudly bringing the new Fresh Soul pizzas," said Jo Blundell, International Marketing VP of Papa John's
In addition to the live gig, Papa John's has released a brand commercial in which a Papa John's store transforms into a lively party packed with friends, DJs, and, of course, a lot of soul-inspired pizza. The ad spot will also prominently feature BaggE, who we watch supply the tunes for the spontaneous Papa John's party.
