The campaign has two key messaging phases spanning across owned, earned and paid channels.

Prior to the games, which will anchor Allianz in the community by building excitement and awareness of “Go Australiaahhh”. During the games, it will connect Allianz to the games by celebrating all the moments, big and small.

The activity kicked off with a Teaser Campaign followed by a six-week burst that capitalises on key sporting and cultural media environments through TV, Outdoor and Audio, and reaches into our key partner locations through outdoor and in-lift activity. The campaign will then be brought to life through live activations, a significant earned media execution, managed by Eleven PR, as well as social led activity.

Allianz’s chief general manager consumer, Shez Ford commented, “‘Aahhh’ is the sound we made when Cathy Freeman sprinted into history, it’s the sound that we made watching the Courtney Vine score ‘that goal’, and it’s how we will celebrate every time an Aussie achieves the remarkable in Paris.

“Sport is a huge part of Australian communities and lives. And our Olympic and Paralymic partnership provides us with the opportunity to bring to life the every day Australians we serve that will be cheering our athletes on in their living rooms, in pubs and anywhere they can find a TV or Phone.”

Howatson+Company’s group managing director, Renee Hyde says, “This campaign captures the joy of celebrating our country’s best. The Olympic and Paralympic Games unite our nation – bringing communities together all over Australia”

Earlier this year Allianz announced their new ambassador swimming sensation Mollie O’Callaghan. Mollie joins Allianz Australia’s cohort of ambassadors including Cate Campbell, Madison de Rozario, Nic Beveridge, Owen Wright and the Australian Steelers.
