Wray & Nephew - Carnival

Notting Hill Carnival

Carnival without Wray & Nephew doesn’t work, and Wray & Nephew without Carnival is like forgetting your birthday!

The spirit of Carnival embodies everything that Wray & Nephew is about – fun, good vibes, celebration, dance, music, friendship, culture and legacy. And that’s why all the activations, campaigns and projects have flowed into this celebration – WE ARE CARNIVAL.

Bring together the past & the present.

For this 3-day event, we sought to generate strong visibility and presence throughout the Carnival period through the following activations:

  • Launch of the Yard Shop Carnival range

  • A consistent stream of Carnival-related content across all digital platforms

  • Partnering with Toddla T to support his Steezey Wonderland Sound System

  • Use the Straight From Yard campaign as the driving force behind the ‘We Are Carnival’ mechanic.

  • Work with brand advocates, influencers and tastemakers to tell Wray’s Carnival story

  • Ensure the brand’s music pillar is a prevalent part of the overall Carnival activation

  • Reach a broader, more mainstream audience outside of Wray’s core homeland demographic

  • Ensure the brand remains authentic in its approach.


After launching, Wray’s Yard Shop's next big announcement would come from its Carnival Range. The Carnival range was released to represent the bold and vibrant spirit of Wray & Nephew and Notting Hill Carnival.

 The range allowed Wray’s Yard Shop to continue to grow as a separate entity from the rum brand, tapping into a global celebration that appeals to a wide demographic.

Shot by streetwear/lifestyle photographer Sirius Film (Danika Magdelena), - Nike, Aldo, FILA, Ellesse, Places + Faces & Sergio Tacchini, the clothing was shot to represent the uniqueness of Notting Hill Carnival and the city of London.

The above was released in conjunction with social media advertising campaigns, carnival music mixes, influencer activations and cocktail inspirations perfect for this season. Throughout this period, we had a stunning reach of 6.2 million, an increase in followers of 1.2k and a 5.2% rise in organic engagement. 

It was a seamless and integrated campaign that came together with an incredible team!   

We continued to fuel the good music and vibes online through the The Wraylist. Click the link to find out more.
