A CEREMONY CELEBRATING DEVOTION
How do you celebrate a club with an abundance of passion and few trophies? ODD Agency focused on the deep, enduring bond between the team and its fans. Vincenzo Ferrera delivered an honest, poetic and moving monologue, accompanied by the remarkable young violinist Samuele Palumbo.
AN END-TO-END APPROACH
ODD Agency once again worked with Palermo FC on two key events marking the club’s 125th anniversary. Throughout November, the Pink Spot project illuminated places connected to the history of the city and the club, from Teatro Politeama to neighbourhood pitches and murals on the outskirts. The greatest challenge was producing the extended ceremony before the Palermo–Pescara match on 1 November. The show brought together acting, live music, acrobatics, a choreographed crest display, a DJ set, lighting design, video performance and a parade of club legends. Every segment had to fit precisely within Serie B’s strict matchday protocol. Careful planning united writing, creative direction, production and event management, demonstrating ODD Agency’s ability to deliver public ceremonies from concept to completion.
