Golden 1 Center Takeover

Golden 1 Center Takeover

Print Shop: Ferrari Color (now part of Signs.com)

Tools and Supplies: Mojave Digital Media 4.0 Mil Wall Graphics Vinyl, 3M Controltac Graphic Film IJ162, Durst Rho 512R Plus

Nothing says, “Hey Look Ma, I Made It,” quite like a wall graphic timeline outlining your band’s success, which is exactly what greeted Panic! at the Disco when the crew arrived at Sacramento, California’s Golden 1 Center arena for the 2019 leg of the Pray for the Wicked tour. The striking takeover is one example of the arena’s new marketing strategy: decking out the venue for each artist taking the stage. With concerts every week or so, this approach requires budget-friendly materials that look spectacular and don’t damage the walls with frequent installs and teardowns; Ferrari Color, a large-format PSP with facilities in Salt Lake City, San Francisco, and Sacramento, had the perfect experience for the job.

(You may have seen JT’s selfie with the cartoon on his Instagram!)

Meredith adds, “These wide-format projects have created some major Instagram-worthy moments,” plus the campaigns have helped other stadiums rethink their own internal marketing strategies so artists are more inclined to keep coming back for more.
