After months of preparation, Sky Bar have kicked off their summer season in style! Dubbed the hippest of hangouts, Sky Bar is popping up throughout the South West this summer until September 2017. Held in gorgeous beauty spots in Cornwall, Devon and Bristol, St. Agnes born Sky Bar know how to throw a party. From architecturally-inspired marquees that are house the dedicated gin, prosecco and cocktail bars to the delicious street food on offer, guests can indulge in great music, food and stunning views.

Sky Bar have successfully built a loyal following since 2015, and through a blend of social media marketing in early 2017, this pop up bar have seen their customer base increase and events sell out months before the summer starts. Coverage featured in Cornwall Living, Bristol Magazine and luxury lifestyle platform Sheerluxe ensured that Sky Bar were known on the events calendar both online and offline.

Our marketer Natalie has had the pleasure of working with this vibrant client securing local and national press coverage, alongside organising and directing photography alongside Falmouth University for the opening night in Croyde, Devon.

Tim Bawden of Sky Bar kindly commented on our efforts :

The team at Eight Wire has been instrumental to the success of 2017’s SkyBar pop-up events. Never short of creative marketing ideas, fresh approaches and getting to the heart of our target consumer, their involvement in our newsletters, social media marketing and PR has seen ticket sales rise, our social media following has increased and become more engaged. We’re really pleased with the results and they have been a pleasure to work with every step of the way.
