Stamping Ground

It’s game on at The Sporting Globe Richmond! Following a $3 million renovation, this iconic venue has returned better than ever, boasting state-of-the-art technology, more screens, and four lanes of augmented reality darts. The grand reopening was a star-studded affair, with Collingwood AFL stars Brayden Maynard and Mason Cox, along with sporting legends Gary Ablett Jr and Billy Brownless, among the VIPs. Special guests including Jeff Browne, Craig Hutchison, and Lauren Phillips were also on hand to experience the transformation of one of Melbourne’s most beloved sports bars. We achieved extensive media coverage, with channels 9, 7, and 10 all featuring live crosses during their 5 and 6 pm bulletins from the launch night. In the following days, SEN hosted two on-site broadcasts, and we secured additional coverage in The Herald Sun and Concrete Playground. Stamping Ground’s efforts reached a potential audience of 1.4 million across just two days. Stay tuned for The Sporting Globe Richmond's Heat Check challenge and famous spicy wings on The Sunday Footy Show today, and next week, we’ll be welcoming the Triple M Rush Hour team and their dedicated listeners.

In 2012, The Bennelong Foundation funded the installation of two digital clocks which display the fastest male and female times around the ‘Tan’. Earlier this year, the foundation gifted two new upgraded digital clocks to the City of Melbourne, continuing the tradition of supporting healthy living in Melbourne.    Stamping Ground worked with the foundation to drive the PR campaign around the clocks, building awareness of the foundation and its mission to enhance community wellbeing through creating a healthier, more productive and inclusive community.    In 17 days, Stamping Ground generated 137 media items and reached a potential audience of 5.9 million people (5,896,288).    Stamping Ground engaged ambassadors Peter Bol, Steve Monaghetti and Jaryd Clifford to be involved in media opportunities, including a launch day with City of Melbourne Mayor, Sally Capp. The launch was attended by 9News, 7News (and distributed to 10 News), The Age and the Herald Sun. Stamping Ground also managed the production of a Video News Release which was distributed to media post-event with imagery, as well as social content. 

Chef’s kiss for new Chapel Street delight!    Chapel Street is reclaiming its title as the heartbeat of Melbourne, and we've had a lot of fun working with the team at Morris Jones to re-launch the venue’s newest restaurant and cocktail bar offering, Inca.    Inca Morris Jones is Melbourne's first Nikkei restaurant, blending the delicate and imaginative Japanese culinary tradition with the bold, vibrant, and spicy flavors of Peru. The new ownership team behind the venture were featured in the Herald Sun, with follow up feature articles on Concrete Playground, Urban List, Melbourne My Style and Urban List taking a deep dive into what Inca has to offer.    Stamping Ground hosted a media launch night with two back-to-back sessions of sit-down meals showcasing Inca head chef Carlos Moreira’s favourite dishes. While Suzi Calvert serenaded the crowd and Clint Stanaway introduced the new kids on the block.    Stamping Ground developed the guest list and invites, managed RSVPs, engaged and briefed Channel Nine and Nova100 presenter Clint Stanaway as MC, coordinated guest arrivals and seating on the night, as well as arranging photography and videography. Oh, and built a chandelier moments before guests arrived to help bring the Morris Jones team’s vision to life!    Mainstream media coverage reached a potential audience of 1.7 million people in just a few short weeks.   Bradley Putzier Giovanni Pino Callum O'Sullivan

Gumbuya Dreaming certainly took the chill out of these Melbourne winter nights. The roller coasters were roaring, fire pits glowing, and First Nations storytelling was on full display.     We were thrilled to be part of @Gumbuya World’s inaugural winter light event Gumbuya Dreaming which drew tens of thousands of visitors from across the state.   Over the two-month campaign, Stamping Ground achieved significant media coverage, engaged ambassadors, facilitated giveaways, and organised ongoing influencer visits to generate further and sustained interest.     Through our outreach, Gumbuya Dreaming was featured in TimeOut, Secret Melbourne, 10 News First, 7 News, the Sunday Footy Show, Postcards, ABC Saturday Breakfast, The Herald Sun, V Weekend as well as a promotional competition through 9News Melbourne which gave families the chance to experience the magic for themselves.     We also featured prominently on the Today Show, with seven crosses highlighting the diverse offering; where else could you hop on a rollercoaster one minute, then get up close with a koala before exploring the dazzling light display?   The campaign reached a potential audience in excess of 7.7 million people – through traditional media alone.

The Mother's Day Classic is an event we hold very close to our hearts. This fantastic cause grew in 2024 with the inclusion of Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) alongside National Breast Cancer Foundation as the charities the MDC raises funds for. More than 80,000 people turned out nationally to 75 locations as we wrapped our arms around women's health to stop cancer in its tracks. The 2024 Mother's Day Classic Foundation PR campaign achieved 3,496 pieces of coverage, reaching a potential audience of over 31,660,000. Coverage highlights included 9News, 7News, Ten News, ABC News, Weekend Today show, WIN Network, 3AW, 4BC, 2CC, ABC Radio, House of Wellness Radio, Smooth FM, Nova, MMM, Herald Sun, V Weekend, Gold Coast Bulletin and Geelong Advertiser. A special thank you to Emily Redward, Claire Towns and Zara Lawless.
