For its annual year-end party, Sephora brought 800 Île-de-France employees together in a vintage amusement park: Sepholand.

01 — The challenge

Bringing 800 employees together, differently.

Every year, Sephora celebrates the end of the year with its Île-de-France teams. In 2017, the brand wanted an evening out of the ordinary.

The goal: give employees a joyful, nostalgic break, far from the usual corporate party.

How do you bring 800 people together in one world?
How do you make teams used to beauty and fashion dream?
How do you keep a trace of an evening made to be lived?

That’s where That Dog comes in.

02 — The stakes

Taking everyone back to childhood.

The evening had to:

bring 800 employees togethercreate an immersive worldmix games, treats and showsgive the teams a part to playkeep people dancing all nightleave a memory in pictures
Our approach

Not just film a party.

Bring back the magic of a funfair.

03 — The concept

Sepholand Beauty Park.

The evening was themed as a bygone amusement park celebrating the brand. It took place at the Musée des Arts Forains in Paris, where heavy red velvet curtains and wooden horses fixed to the walls create a timeless atmosphere, with luminous garlands in the entrance courtyard. Guests could ride a bicycle carousel, swing rides and a traditional wooden-horse carousel, take on the “waiters’ race”, snack on popcorn, candy floss, waffles and crêpes, and have fun with humorous cut-out backdrops and an instant photo booth with a carousel backdrop. The opening featured an aerial silk performance, followed by a surprise choreography by the store managers, then a dance floor hosted by a DJ.
