Michelin Guide Revelation 2019

The Brief

The Michelin Guide wanted to change the format of their Michelin Guide Revelation by taking it from a morning event into a buzzy evening cocktail reception. AOK Creative was briefed to highlight the link between gastronomy and cinema after being selected as the Michelin Guide’s UK based agency for the third year running.

AOK Creative worked with Michelin Travel Partners, as well as all 13 event partners, to create, build and deliver the Michelin Guide Revelation 2019.
