“Newport Beach is calling.”
If Newport Beach is on the phone, you must answer the call. At least that’s that idea behind the new Visit Newport Beach campaign dubbed “Newport Beach is Calling.”
Launching on June 20 (the first day of summer), the campaign takes a nostalgic twist by transporting travelers back to the iconic 1990s, blending retro fun with modern luxury as it follows two friends on a glamorous adventure around Newport Beach.
With vintage fashion and equally vintage phones, along with the introduction of Visit Newport Beach’s new innovative AI concierge, Marina, the campaign offers a fun and interactive way to plan the perfect summer getaway.
This summer, Visit Newport Beach wants people to put worries on hold and answer the call to luxury and relaxation. According to media information, Newport Beach is “on standby to connect you with the ultimate summer vacation. Newport Beach is calling—will you answer?”
According to Visit Newport Beach, the “Newport Beach is Calling” campaign visuals and commercial perfectly capture the spirit of the 1990s while showcasing the modern luxury of Newport Beach.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the campaign is Marina, an AI Concierge Extraordinaire, as Visit Newport Beach describes it.
Call (800) 94-COAST to connect with the AI concierge and have Marina become your personal vacation guru.
