Influencer Event
Ahead of Steel City AF’s 3-day comedy festival, TeenyFest, we hosted a private influencer and industry preview show at Steel City AF’s Stanton Heights location. Personal invitations were written and sent to a curated selection of entertainment professionals and Pittsburgh lifestyle influencers. The event resulted in approximately 50 in-person guests filling Steel City AF’s hybrid in-person and virtual performance space, with over 100 people tuning in worldwide. Influencers created Instagram story content and reels totaling a reach well over 100k and nearly 5,000 views to date. The TeenyFest festival was well attended.
