‘Blush Hour’ celebrates Saturday nights in and out

WKD Blush Hour - Binky Felstead

A new 10-week digital and social media campaign headlined by Made In Chelsea star Binky Felstead, aims to put WKD Blush at the heart of Saturday nights.

The weekly 7pm Saturday night ‘WKD Blush Hour’ slot went live for the first time on June 25 and will run throughout July and August on Mixcloud radio, and will be publicised on WKD and Binky’s social media pages.

Providing the soundtrack for consumers sharing a night in or getting ready for a Saturday night out, Binky will be playing the latest music tracks and inviting consumers to get involved via shout outs and selecting the tracks that they want to hear, alongside sharing fashion, lifestyle, beauty and make-up tips.

Each week WKD will be offering a range of prizes – from fashion vouchers to make-up products – that should help get consumers’ Saturday nights off to the best possible start.

The ‘WKD Blush Hour’ is expected to reach around 1.2m target consumers during the campaign run. ‘WKD Blush Hour’ will have its own branded Mixcloud page and more than 450,000 adverts will promote the show. Binky will also be inviting her 1.7m social media followers to tune in to the WKD Blush Hour music mix on Mixcloud, and WKD will also feature the activity on its Twitter, Facebook and Instagram pages.

Debs Carter, marketing Director – alcohol, at SHS Drinks, said: “The ‘WKD Blush Hour’ provides an unrivalled opportunity for WKD Blush to engage with WKD’s core audience of 18 to 24-year-olds at a key point in their weekly social calendar.

“Socialising with friends is and always has been at the very heart of the WKD brand’s DNA and this campaign will resonate with consumers by bringing together a winning combination of the key influences on this peer group’s lives: music, fashion, the chance to win fabulous prizes and getting together with mates on Saturday nights all headlined by a renowned and popular style icon and accessible via social media.”
