Turning Puerto Rico Convention Center Upside Down

Interactive Entertainment Group turned the convention hall upside down while exhibiting at last week’s Connect Spring Marketplace in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Event planners from across the country flipped over our #UpsideDownChallenge booth concept. From sketching an airplane to writing the alphabet, each game card prompted attendees to complete a challenge on our giant dry-erase surface in under 30 seconds. Sounds easy enough, right? But here’s the catch: participants had to complete the challenge while wearing our special upside down goggles, sparking laughter and engagement among attendees. Not only did attendees capture the challenge on their smartphones, but they also received custom Dunkin Donuts gift cards to remember the experience.
