Freezone is a grassroots, drug- and alcohol-free community festival in the UK.

Brought in to manage a 20-week organic social media campaign. I developed and executed a content strategy across Facebook and Instagram designed to drive ticket sales and grow the audience reach beyond the existing community, without any paid budget.

Measuring Success

The success of the campaign was measured through a combination of social media engagement metrics. I monitored the performance of short-form video content and carousel posts, tracking reach, impressions, engagement rates, and follower growth to assess how effectively the content was expanding the festival’s visibility.

These insights helped refine the content approach throughout the campaign and informed ongoing adjustments to both organic content and paid advertising as the festival marketing progressed.

Social Media Content Calendar

To deliver the strategy, I designed a structured content calendar mapping posts across five content pillars to maintain variety while building consistent momentum toward the event.

Working from a large archive of existing festival footage, I sourced, organised and curated video assets for repurposing into short-form content. I produced and edited Reels, wrote captions and scripts, designed text overlays, and scheduled all content through Meta Business Suite.

The calendar was built around key campaign milestones to create a deliberate arc — from awareness and audience warm-up in February and March, through ticket sale urgency in April and May, to live coverage across the festival weekend itself.
