Slingshot Sponsorship has signed Dailymotion as Official Media Partner for Outlook Festival and Dimensions Festival.
This is a partnership with vast potential. The two festivals, Outlook (2-6 September) and Dimensions (26-30 August) feature performances from hundreds of artists across multiple stages located in diverse settings including a moat, a Roman amphitheatre and numerous boat parties, which sets the scene for some unique content, not only for people unable to attend the festivals, but also for festivalgoers to share during and after the festivals.
Dailymotion is one of the world’s biggest video platforms, and the most popular European site – across all categories – in the world according to comScore. The partnership will include a significant live stream element, in addition to seeded video content than the entire year.
Marc Eychenne, VP of Dailymotion, said:
“We are delighted to be working with Outlook and Dimensions. For years, we have been working with music festivals to develop their online reach through livestreaming or more short form content. Last year’s Dimensions opening concert with Caribou was a massive success on our platform and that’s why we’re excited to further develop a working relationship. Both festivals will bring great music experiences to our audience and attract new viewers to Dailymotion.”
Jackie Fast, MD, Slingshot Sponsorship, said:
“Outlook & Dimensions Festivals are truly unique and amass a huge following worldwide. The partnership with Dailymotion not only supports this audience growth, but provides both festivals the opportunity to continually engage with their artists, advocates, and fans outside of the attendance of the festivals themselves.”
