The Locals is an advertising agency building real brand experiences - from BTL and experiential campaigns to integrated and 360° hybrid projects. We lead with BTL, but our work goes beyond it. We work with some of the biggest names in their industries: Sorbanie, Winston, Camel, Jägermeister, Martini, Bacardi, Proper No. Twelve, The Macallan, Finlandia, Bombay, Costa Coffee, Vergnano, Grey Goose, Heineken, NIVEA, Volkswagen, Milka, Suchard, Rolex, and many more.
