Brand trends: The Euros - It's coming home

Arri Kafoor • June 16, 2021

As restrictions ease throughout Europe, many are thrilled to finally be able to cheer on their country in the long awaited UEFA Euros football tournament which were postponed last summer. With the England team participating this year, advertisements showing their support for England are dominant...

Just Eat advertisement - We Got It

Deliveroo “England Til We Dine"

Pablo London


Deliveroo has launched a new football and food campaign celebrating the delivery brand's official sponsorship of the England teams.


Voiced by Karl Pilkington to the beat of a football chant, the ad builds off the fact that while the English may rally around the national side when it comes to football, our minds will be on takeaways and food from the rest of the world.


The campaign sees the likes of Harry Maguire, Jack Grealish, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Tyrone Mings declaring we’re English until we order a takeaway.

Snickers “Bothlands”

Octagon


Snickers are representing England and Scotland ahead of the Euro 2020 tournament with a tongue-in-cheek “Bothlands” campaign.


The ad shows players from the two rival teams as they uncomfortably stand side by side before a match. A Scottish voice asks “Whose idea was this?” as Snickers declares itself the "official awkward sponsors" of both sides.

Heineken “Home Gatherings”

Publicis Italy


Heineken's latest TV spot navigates the uncharted territory of post-pandemic house parties.


The ad follows party-goers as they address everyday issues surrounding the "new normal" of socialising – such as how best to press a doorbell and how to distinguish one open beer from another. The drinkers have to get creative to ensure the safety of their party.


"If you have drinks together, keep them apart," the ad declares, prompting the tagline #SocialiseResponsibly.

Domino’s “Domin-oh-hoo-hoo…”

VCCP


Domino’s has launched a group-ordering feature in their app with a new multimillion-pound campaign, including a TV ad that sees a group of friends yodelling pizza orders across the city.


As they communicate across the cityscape in falsetto, subtitles reveal the yodel as friends discussing their group order before they meet. The ad ends with the friends all together, enjoying their pizza.


The campaign will run for six months across TV, social, out-of-home and radio (with yodelling lessons). OOH work includes a 48-sheet poster in London, featuring a yodel coming out of a window. Social activity will use a hashtag to encourage people to take part online by joining a community of yodellers, while a new Snapchat lens will similarly enable consumers to participate.

Alpen “Up and Alpen”

BBH London

Alpen celebrates half a century of its muesli with a £2m brand relaunch, which sees them appear on a TV ad for the first time in more than 4 years.


The ad begins as a man tucks into a bowl of Alpen, all the while staring at his new sofa which is stuck in the doorframe. Suddenly, an alpine ram appears before ramming the sofa into the living room, outlining how Alpen can give everyone the endurance to climb their own personal mountains.


The £2million investment includes a new TV creative, a website, and a refreshed pack design celebrating its rich heritage. A social media campaign will also run across the brand’s Instagram and Facebook pages, encouraging the UK public to ‘get up, get out there and get to it’ with Alpen.

Yorkshire Tea / Alpro “My cuppa”

Lucky Generals

Yorkshire Tea have launched a collaboration with plant-based brand Alpro for a new product 
"My Cuppa”. The ad follows the ultimate test of 
one Yorkshire Tea employee called Craig.


We see Craig as he preps for a big meeting. Worried he won't be able to rewire years of innate psychological training to say "brew" instead of "cuppa", he uses his morning routine to repeat his mantra. But despite all of his prep, as he finishes the presentation he introduces the product as "My brew".


The campaign will run on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
