Our Mexican distributor, 360 Media, set up and hosted two event domes at Zero Fest in Guadalajara. This musical event, created by Coca-Cola to bring awareness to their “Coke Zero” brand, featured both Latin and international bands such as Fatboy Slim, The Mars Volta, Groove Armanda, Bright Eyes, Kinky, Zoe, Los Dynamite and Ximena Sarinana. More than 20,000 people attended the festival.
One of the domes was a 44 ft. decorated with a jungle theme that included faux trees and imitation grass. The experience was enhanced by playing nature and animal sounds inside. The other dome was a 60 ft. that was used to showcase a unique concept, developed by 360 Media, called the “Zero Bar.” This dome was packed with real ice blocks and kept cold inside by using air-conditioning as well as a double layer dome cover. The cover was created by using Event Vinyl on top of Blackout Vinyl. The Blackout Vinyl kept the interior space cool and dark, even under the direct sunlight.

APRIL 5-8, 2008
The first event dome to be set up in Italy was at the Show Business Installation and Broadcast Technology Show/SIB 2008 in early April. Tecnodomes, srl., the Italian dealer for Pacific Domes International, hosted a custom 60 ft. dome at the Rimini Expo Centre.

Usually domes attract lots of attention, and in this case there was help from the Ferrari and Lamborghini parked out front.

Inside the dome there was a lot going on! In addition to the products being promoted within, there was a bar, a chef who put on cooking shows and some of the top Italian DJs with a live radio feed taking place each day. It was an event that happens only once every two years.

At the end of March, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort hosted the Verizon Slide & Ski Weekend (formerly the Verizon Luge Challenge). This event, which took place in conjunction with the third-annual Winter Festival, exposed thousands of people to the sport of luge. Verizon and USA Luge created this opportunity so that the average person could experience the thrill of luge in a safe setting with instruction from the entire 15-member USA Luge World Cup and international team.

Located at the base of the luge track was a 60 ft. dome called “The Verizon Slide & Ski Chalet.” A host of amenities could be found inside the dome, including a winter BBQ, barista station, DJ, boot warmers, massages, and a green-screen photo op for guests. USA Luge World Cup athletes were available as well to sign autographs and pose for pictures.

The chalet was open to everyone, giving people the chance to learn about some of Verizon’s latest products and services. The dome, which had the Verizon logo applied to it, served as a unique marketing environment while providing space for after-luge events.

On the first day of Spring, The Shinnyo-en Foundation launched the “Six Billion Paths to Peace” global initiative in Times Square. Symmetry Event Solutions, who produced the event, pruchased a 24 ft. Dome that was designed to look like the globe.

The Dome was set up on “Military Island” surrounded by a lush garden oasis to demonstrate that no matter where you are, or who you are, it is possible to find and create peace. For eleven hours, the “Earth Dome” attracted the attention of New Yorkers and asked them to consider the contributions they could make to create a more harmonious world. This event attracted over 1,000 visitors within the first two hours.

The foundation’s goal is to raise the awareness of six billion people on our planet and inspire them to pledge their own unique “Path to Peace.” To find out more about this, or to pledge your path, visit http://www.sixbillionpaths.org.

Surrounded by cranes towering into the sky, sat two Pacific Domes - a 30 ft. and a 60 ft. connected.

They were set up at the Conexpo-Con/Agg 2008 Exposition in Las Vegas, at The Convention Center.
Their purpose was to market Solideal tires to the construction industry and they certainly drew attention!

This event, which is held every three years, attracted an estimated 125,000 professionals from all over the world.

The Domes were a huge hit and generated a lot of excitement for the client, as well as numerous inquiries about our product.

FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 4, 2008
For two weeks, a clear 30 ft. Dome could be seen at the South Street Seaport in New York City. This was the “Bliss Oasis.”

The Dome attracted people passing by and drew them into the warm interior where they discovered K Bliss.

This event, open to the public daily from 11am-7pm, was set up to introduce Kellogg’s new Special K Bliss bars. These bars, a combination of fruit-flavored pieces, crispy cereal and a chocolate bottom layer, are the newest Special K snack to hit the store shelves.

As you can see, in order to create a one-of-a-kind marketing tool for the client, we applied logos and branding to this unique clear Dome.

Did you see the Domes at this year’s Super Bowl? We had four 36 ft. Pacific Domes at the Tailgate Party, an invitation-only event for 10,000 NFL affiliates.

The Domes were set up on a beautiful wood deck, donated by Home Depot, that was constructed for the party (the same party that Willie Nelson played for before the game).

The domes housed a Juice Bar, Lounge, Head & Neck Massage Center and also a Hand Massage & Manicure Area.

They successfully provided a high level of visibility to both the Domes and the event.

This winter McNeil Consumer Healthcare kicked off the official launch of Johnson & Johnson’s over-the-counter version of Zyrtec allergy medicine in New York City’s Central Park.

Inside a 90 ft. Dome that we provided, a virtual spring was constructed. The free event featured live music, springtime activities, and even a carousel for the kids. The 6,300 sq. ft. environment provided visitors with a reminder of the spring season and the allergies that come with it.
The idea was to bring about the feeling that anyone, even somebody with allergies, can enjoy a spring day in Central park!

So how did we get this truck inside a Pacific Dome? We certainly didn’t drive it in the door.
