The ‘Les VODays’ campaign includes a partnership with pop culture media outlet Serieously, a dedicated collaboration with media giant AlloCiné and a full nationwide traditional media campaign that includes coverage across Facebook, Instagram and Catch-up TV on TF1+ and M6+, with additional visibility on display advertising across the Google network.

This campaign aims to drive growth in the digital transactional format in France by reaching customers who have yet to experience the ease and simplicity of buying or renting movies. It also encourages existing customers to grow their digital libraries with brilliant, fresh titles through a limited-time promotional offer, allowing French film fans to enjoy their favourite titles over and over again, without the need for a subscription or advertising.

Nathalie Graumann, President of the Syndicat de l’Edition Vidéo Numérique (SEVN) said: ”On the occasion of this fifth edition of VoDAYS, we are pleased to launch this new national campaign at the start of the year and to continue VoDAYS as an unmissable event for EST and VOD, as we continue to build on this momentum and meet consumer expectations with a wide, diverse and attractive offering.”

Liz Bales, Chief Executive at DEGI added: “Buying and renting films digitally is an essential element of the French Screen economy. Complementing audience passion for cinema and for streaming, buying and renting extends convenience and choice and judging from the performance of this promotion across the years, these services are much valued by French film fans.”

James Gallagher, Head of Marketing Projects, International & UK, at DEGI said: “The continued success of LesVODays is built on the collaboration between DEGI, SEVN, and partners across the French Home Entertainment industry. The strong performance and week-on-week growth seen in the four previous campaigns has created a solid foundation for long-term growth, reinforcing the value of transactional and supporting a vibrant future for Home Entertainment in France.”
