Aldi has embraced the Australian tradition of a game of backyard cricket at Christmas to create an epic Christmas campaign.

The campaign features “the true-ish” story of Doug, a stubborn batsman whose epic innings of backyard cricket attracts huge crowds who stick around to share a Christmas feast while watching the game. The temptation of a Christmas feast eventually proves too much for Doug, who gives up his wicket to share in the festivities.

The campaign incorporates TV, digital display, outdoor, social and POS, as well as eDMs, catalogues and a dedicated site.
