Noël Sydney was a Christmas festival that transformed the Botanic Garden and Macquarie Street into a dazzling Christmas wonderland for 16 unforgettable nights in 2022.
Our key objective was to position The Star as a distinct, must-visit Sydney destination and to drive visitation to its restaurants, entertainment and retail precincts. We managed an always-on press office, media and influencer famils, VIP and celebrity engagement, and ad hoc projects across lifestyle, dining, retail, events, and community relations.
From strategy to execution, we managed every aspect of publicity, including major announcements, media previews, media calls, famils, and influencer engagement.
We managed an always-on press office,and numerous projects, campaigns and major events spanning Aboriginal cultures and education, general entertainment, ceremonies, New Year’s Eve parties, Aboriginal art projects, contemporary art and culture events, the BLAK Markets, NAIDOC Week and more.
Our biggest project was the multi-million-dollar upgrade of T1 International, which included the launch of its luxury retail precinct, duty-free, dining, and the revamped T2 Domestic offerings. To support this, we executed media calls, famils and influencer partnerships, and produced a digital content series featuring well-known airport characters such as celebrity chef Luke Mangan.

Mates4Mates is a national charity that actively supports veterans, Defence Force members and their families by providing social connection activities, psychological support, physical rehabilitation and skills for recovery programs.
Access worked on retainer with Mates4Mates for two years, successfully launching them in the Northern Territory. Our key objectives were to raise awareness and understanding of what the organisation offers and ensure that veterans, Defence Force members and their families are able to find the right support when and where they need it.
Covering a range of activities, we helped deliver communication strategies, stakeholder engagement plans, strong publicity and effective media relations around their services. We also provided extensive media training to executives, client liaison officers and specialists during our tenure.
