The genesis of the What’s Your BIG 5? campaign starts with the proverbial “BIG 5” of South Africa’s safari animals, a familiar term coined for the destination’s wildlife. South African Tourism North America is re-defining “BIG 5” to underscore the broad range of authentic and distinct experiences South Africa has to offer for travelers of all ages, more than safari. The face of the What’s Your BIG 5? story is a loveable giraffe character named Zandi, who is the embodiment of South Africa—vibrant, colorful, warm, and friendly. The campaign officially launches on Sunday with a 360-degree platform including advertising, year-round public relations, trade marketing, and consumer-driven events throughout the year.
