Event Proposal2014

About B.O.B Fest:

B.O.B Fest is the rebrand of a creative, lifestyle events company (formally CoolUrBox) that was established in October 2011 with the primary objective of organizing events for the young and outgoing community. The idea was to take the party experience out of the club and into a more chilled, relaxed and social environment, where we could market products and services that target this market or have the potential to service this market. Having already hosted many successful events B.O.B Fest is aimed at individuals with disposable income respectively. The idea, brand and concept have already created a huge, loyal and religious turn out between 1000 – 5000 people per event. (Venue dependent)

The events are run by Nathan Mayor and 5FM DJ’s Euphonik and DJ Warras whom all bring in their combined experience, expertise, fine tuning and quality of events together, showing continued growth and huge promise.

2014 will see further growth of B.O.B Fest and high possibly on the expansion into other provinces and cities. With the help of event partners and sponsors B.O.B Fest would also take local talent up a notch. South Africa has a huge cache of talent, much of which is as yet untapped. Events such as B.O.B Fest give corporates an opportunity to expose such talents.

The Consumer: The targeted consumer is in the range of 18 and 30 years old, is very trendy, sociable, loves music and meeting people. The prior parties hosted by CoolUrBox (now B.O.B Fest) have proven to deliver exactly what the youth are looking for and thus CoolUrBox has grown their customer base by over 200% - from 600 to 2000 people minimum and still with great opportunity for more growth. This segment of the market is the most sought after by the big brands such as Miller, Jameson, Nike, Redds, Markhams, Sports Scene, and Converse. All these brands have the same target market that they are focusing on and trying to win over. B.O.B Fest will cater to our usual mixed black (35%), white (25%), coloured (30%), Indian (10%) crowd, which is 18- 28 year old party goers, in an LSM 7-10 (45% Male & 55% Female) The majority of the attendees live in the greater Johannesburg area. Most attendees are in varsity or already in the working environment and have a good disposable income.

For example the first 100 ticket buyers could receive a ‘party pack’ this could include various exciting products from the event partners, products that best represent their brand in a fun way (this could be very creative) Our themes are always driven by ‘newness’ the latest and most popular trends.
