The Super Seniors
About the project
Liseberg wanted to challenge stereotypical perceptions of the elderly and show that the amusement park is for everyone. Through a PR-driven campaign, a record attempt was created that put ageism in the spotlight.

Concept
With the Super Seniors, we invited retirees over 70 to try to break the world record for the highest average age on a roller coaster. Out of over 200 applicants, 18 participants were selected for the record attempt on Valkyria, where their stories and personalities became an important part of the campaign.
Impact
On September 3, the ride was completed with an average age of 80.1 years, a new world record. The campaign generated 48 press clippings, live broadcasts on TV4 and P4, as well as international attention in media outlets such as Vogue and PR Week. In social media, the campaign reached over 1.6 million organic views and nearly 126,000 likes.
