Celebrating Thanksgiving

Fortnum & Mason's 2024 Christmas campaign, "A Christmas Extraordinary," blends storytelling, hand-painted art, and animation to celebrate festive craftsmanship.

A Christmas Extraordinary: A Celebration of Storytelling and Craftsmanship

Luxury British retailer Fortnum & Mason has officially launched its much-anticipated 2024 Christmas campaign titled ‘A Christmas Extraordinary’. This festive extravaganza, crafted in collaboration with creative agency Otherway, acclaimed illustrator Olaf Hajek, and animation studio Studio AKA, brings a unique storytelling concept to life.

Tales of Christmas: A Year in the Making

The campaign revolves around a stunning design concept called ‘Tales of Christmas’, a theme meticulously developed over the past year. This imaginative narrative graces over 100 Fortnum & Mason products, including handcrafted Christmas puddings, festive teas, and more, offering a luxurious touch to holiday celebrations.

At the heart of the campaign lies the intricate artwork of Olaf Hajek, a Berlin-based artist celebrated for his vibrant, nature-infused illustrations. Hajek's hand-painted scenes serve as the foundation for Otherway’s creative vision, blending tradition with modern artistry.

Out-of-Home Elegance in Central London

The campaign extends beyond Fortnum & Mason’s iconic store, with an eye-catching out-of-home campaign blanketing central London. From striking crosstrack 48s for commuters to print and digital advertisements, the festive visuals captivate audiences with hand-painted characters and scenes that exude holiday cheer.

Bringing Festivity to Life Through Animation

In collaboration with Studio AKA and director Marcus Armitage, the campaign takes a step further with a series of animated films. These include five 15-second films showcasing hero products and a 30-second stop-frame animation, weaving all elements together into a whimsical celebration of the season.

A Commitment to Excellence

“Christmas has always been at the heart of Fortnum & Mason,” said Crispin Butler, Director of Marketing and Communications at Fortnum & Mason. “This year, we’re excited to showcase Olaf’s intricate and vibrant work across product, digital, and print – celebrating our extraordinary products and provenance.”

Placing Products at the Heart of the Story

Jono Holt, Founder & CEO of Otherway, emphasized the campaign's unique approach, stating, “As every other brand at Christmas tries to pull the heartstrings, we believe the best way to stand out is by placing the product at the heart of the story. At Fortnum’s, it’s the exceptional products that really bring the festive joy.”

A Festive Campaign to Remember

Fortnum & Mason’s ‘A Christmas Extraordinary’ captures the essence of the season through a harmonious blend of artistry, storytelling, and craftsmanship. From hand-painted illustrations to immersive animations, this campaign is a testament to the retailer’s commitment to creating a truly unforgettable Christmas experience.
