Adidas prioritises maximum visibility with iconic outdoor network site

Adidas first launched the idea of ‘impossible is nothing’ in 2004 and relaunched the brand attitude, earlier this year, using globally recognised personalities such as South African rugby captain Siya Kolisi, international footballer Mo Salah and renowned singer-songwriter Beyoncé.

At 68m x 36m in size, Outdoor Network’s iconic cooling tower site near FNB Stadium in Nasrec, on the border of Soweto, south-west of Johannesburg, is such a site, with its ability to deliver huge impact and ensure maximum reach and visibility.

Speaking about the concept, Kate Woods, senior brand director at Adidas SA, said: “The mural features well-known South African athletes and creators Thulani Hlatshwayo, Siya Kolisi, Wayde van Niekerk, Zinhle Ndawonde, Anrune Weyers, Thebe Magugu and Dee Koala. These are all people who have pushed through barriers of what may have seemed impossible at the time, to go on and achieve at the highest level. Our intention is for the ‘impossible is nothing’ tower to be a beacon of hope that when dreams meet hard work and dedication, anything is possible.”

Kirsty Carlson, head of GroupM OOH, adds that the Outdoor Network Tower truly delivers in terms of great iconic impact. “The incredible, colourful and eye-catching artwork that has been created specifically for this Adidas campaign and site really stands out, and delivers even further on the impact and dominance of this ‘impossible is nothing’ campaign message. Truly a great high impact site being used so effectively.”

The Adidas ‘impossible is nothing’ tower looks set to deliver larger-than-life impact and stake its claim as one of the most visible and impactful OOH campaigns in Johannesburg.
