Camp Romper 2020
Empire was thrilled to help recreate the magic of summer camp from home with Camp Romper this year! Having worked on the live event last year, Camp Romper returned to Empire to help produce virtual craft, cooking and storytelling live streams to keep the summer camp energy going online. These hour-long sessions took place for three consecutive Saturdays starting on June 13th.
The event series targeted parents and kids, with an audience mainly consisting of Camp Romper fans, followers and website visitors. Registration was open to the public for each individual session free of cost through the Camp Romper website. Email confirmations were sent to registered guests with instructions on how to join, along with any information or lists of ingredients or materials needed to participate.
Each session featured different summer camp activities including crafting pom poms, keychains and bag accessories out of old t-shirts with The Neon Tea Party, making no-bake granola bites and guacamole with Sprouts Cooking School, and finally, a Drag Queen Reading Hour with Harmonica Sunbeam.
Empire’s scope of work for the Camp Romper virtual event series included consulting on run-of-show development, consulting on virtual platform selection, technical production, rehearsals, live streaming, and the guest’s virtual experience.
Empire is a leading producer of live, virtual and digital events. We strive to deliver the same high production value, immersive and interactive qualities we are known for in live events to virtual audiences.

Guests received their first taste of technological innovation at registration, where they were welcomed by name on a reactive LED screen installation covering the full width of the entry wall. A large lunch café was created with a décor scheme that incorporated custom-built, ceiling-high steel LED frames draped with foliage to create smaller, intimate restaurant-style spaces that displayed both technology and nature.
A series of breakout sessions presented content targeted to attendees’ varied interests, while imagery displayed throughout the venue showcased real-life applications of how products designed to empower developers help to unleash the power of data and reimagine possibilities that will improve our world.
Every element of Microsoft Connect(); from registration, breakfast and keynote, to lunch and evening cocktails, were custom-designed to communicate exacting brand messaging and to deliver a high-touch guest experience to this important audience. The keynote and breakout sessions were livestreamed through an onsite studio built for this purpose and content was watched online by millions around the world.
Empire is proud to collaborate with Microsoft on this annual, top-tier business communication event.
