This summer, Dropbox wanted to throw an unforgettable summer party for their hard-working employees and their families. The brief was to create a family friendly event during the day, followed by an evening event for the adults! Davis Events came up with a unique and creative theme and made it come to life! The event was called Dropboxegen, a fun filled festival theme! The day was split up into two parts. It started with a Teddy Bear’s Picnic and then flowed seamlessly into a boutique festival hidden away in the woods!

 

We crafted a Teddy Bear’s Picnic themed children’s party, inspired by the famous nursery rhyme!

 

“If you go down to the woods today, you’re sure of a big surprise! If you go down to the woods today you’d better go in disguise!”  

As kids arrived, they were greeted by our giant teddy bear mascot who handed out adorable bear ears to help with their disguise! Each child got to build-a-bear of their own to take home with them after the event!

             “There’s lots of wonderful things to eat, and wonderful games to play!”

 

There were plenty of lawn games for children and adults to enjoy, a vintage van serving
quirky sodas and sweet treats were on offer for all. On the main stage, guests danced the day away to live performances from The Dionnes and Now! That’s Live. Not even the on/off Irish weather could keep spirits down!

 

Our talented graphic designer created a distinctive ‘Dropboxegen’ event identity that was visible across all elements of the event including invitations, festival flags, uniforms and signage! The cute and colourful identity really tied the whole event together and made it truly unique to Dropbox.

 

 

 

“If you go down to the woods today, you’d better not go alone.  It’s lovely down in the woods today, but safer to stay at home.”

 

As the event moved into the evening, guests were led by candlelight down to the dark woods for the second part of this magical event! The woods were animated with colourful trees, festoons and the atmosphere was electric with the smooth sounds of our house DJ!

Everyone was taking memory snaps at the bespoke photo op. The incredible UV Drummers put on an unforgettable performance using lights and water to creative a glowing spectacle in the dark woods! A live saxophonist and violinist played in sync with our DJ long into the night! Everyone danced all night until the pinnacle moment when an amazing firework display drew the night to a close.
