We partnered with the Rory Gallagher Estate and Cork City Council to create Cork Rocks for Rory—a city-wide celebration marking 30 years since Rory’s passing. Our work included brand identity, exhibition design, signage, video content, and a full advertising suite for print and digital platforms. A standout feature was Stompin’ Ground—a walking tour through key locations from Rory’s life, brought to life with illustrated maps and on-street wayfinding. We also produced video content to support the campaign online and in exhibitions, helping to capture the spirit and sound of Rory’s music. A bold, emotional tribute to one of Cork’s true icons.

The result is a cohesive visual and storytelling experience that spans streets, screens, and gallery spaces; bringing Rory’s legacy home to the heart of Cork.
