50 years of Great campaigns – What are the traits of the great Kiwi ads?
Join us for a fun-filled evening to celebrate the MA's 50th birthday. MA has curated over 120 of New Zealand's finest advertisements from the past five decades. And wow, what a treasure trove of creativity it is! While putting together this collection, we discovered that the very best ads share seven key traits. John Miles, CEO of MA, will take us on a journey through some of these iconic Kiwi ads, breaking down what makes them so exceptional. He'll also reveal which ads were voted the best for each decade of MA's existence, and, of course, the ultimate winner—the greatest Kiwi ad of the last 50 years.
Looking forward to seeing you for an off-the-clocker with drinks and plenty of laughs as we dive into the rich history of New Zealand's creative brilliance.
