The Roaring Fork Agency (www.roaringforkagency.com) has embarked on a collaboration with the Atlanta Design Festival (www.atlantadesignfestival.net) to position the 2025 Festival, September 27 - October 5, 2025, as a leading force in the world of design, both locally and globally. By leveraging its deep expertise in sponsorships and experiential marketing, Roaring Fork is actively seeking corporate sponsors whose brands align with the innovative, creative spirit of the festival. These partnerships are designed to foster long-term relationships, with brands gaining high visibility and access to a coveted audience of design professionals, students, and enthusiasts. By tailoring sponsorship packages that resonate with the festival’s mission, Roaring Fork enables companies to showcase their products and services in authentic, design-centric ways, adding new dimensions to the festival experience for attendees.
Roaring Fork’s approach to product placement goes beyond traditional advertising, integrating brands directly into the festival’s interactive exhibits and events. The agency is carefully curating brands and products that enhance the aesthetic and thematic vision of the festival, allowing companies to highlight their most forward-thinking offerings in a setting that naturally attracts design-conscious consumers. Whether through branded lounge spaces, live demonstrations, or hands-on workshops, Roaring Fork is creating a landscape where festival-goers can immerse themselves in products that align with the design ethos they admire. This seamless product placement not only strengthens brand connections but also contributes to an elevated festival experience that feels cohesive and inspiring.
Additionally, the Roaring Fork Agency is taking a fresh approach to marketing the festival, utilizing both digital and on-site strategies to boost engagement. Through social media campaigns, influencer partnerships, and curated content, the agency is expanding the Atlanta Design Festival’s reach to include not just locals but also a global audience interested in design trends. The Roaring Fork Agency’s tailored marketing efforts aim to highlight both the festival's unique offerings and the brands behind them, driving awareness and attendance. With this comprehensive approach, the Roaring Fork Agency is not only helping the festival thrive financially but also enhancing its status as a premier event in the design world.
Experiential marketing is another cornerstone of Roaring Fork’s strategy, bringing brand engagement to life through immersive, memorable activations. The agency works with brands to craft unique experiences—from virtual reality showcases to interactive art installations—that captivate the senses and create lasting impressions. This experiential element amplifies the reach of each brand and enriches the festival’s reputation as an event where cutting-edge design intersects with leading global companies. Roaring Fork is also helping to expand the festival’s reach by implementing an extensive digital marketing campaign that includes social media promotions, influencer collaborations, and targeted content to draw attention across the U.S. and internationally. By positioning the Atlanta Design Festival as a premier destination for design innovation, Roaring Fork is attracting a diverse and global audience, strengthening Atlanta’s role on the world stage as a hub for design excellence.
