The Dallas County Fair came to Emerge looking to strengthen their marketing presence heading into the 2025 season, with a focus on creating a more cohesive and recognizable brand across all platforms.
Brand Identity
Our work began with a brand refresh designed to better reflect the fair’s identity, honoring its tradition while creating a look and feel that could carry consistently across digital and print. To support ongoing use, we developed a custom brand kit in Canva, allowing their team to easily create on-brand social media posts and marketing materials moving forward.
Web Development
From there, we led a complete website rebuild to create a more engaging and informative experience for visitors. This included the development of a centralized events system to house the fair schedule and highlight grandstand events more prominently, ensuring the site served as a strong hub for both information and promotion.
Digital Marketing
With a solid digital foundation in place, we expanded into a targeted marketing strategy, activating campaigns through Spotify and Google Ads to increase visibility and drive attendance. Performance was tracked and shared through a digital dashboard, giving the Dallas County Fair team clear insight into campaign effectiveness and the ability to make informed, real-time decisions.
