[Case Study] River Beats & Borgore Sell Out The Varsity Theater In Baton Rouge

The Varsity Theater is one of Baton Rouge’s top music venues. Known for its diverse nights of music, the theater has been a part of the LSU & Baton Rouge nightlife for over a decade. 

In 2018, River Beats partnered with the Varsity for two shows over the course of three days. The shows were headlined by dance music acts Whethan and Borgore. Both acts have headlined music festivals such as EDC & Coachella.

The campaign consisted of our digital advertising and sponsored content funding. Our campaigns resulted in a massive success as both events sold out the 500+ capacity theater. You can see our sponsored content and campaign results below!
