A love letter to London life

Greene King Where London life happens

Where London Life Happens celebrates everyday moments in London. Whether it’s a long-overdue catch-up with friends or a sunny post-work pint, these tributes portray Greene King pubs as integral to the city’s fabric.

At the heart of the campaign is a hero film starring London-based poet and spoken word artist Lotte Rice. She delivers her own heartfelt love letter to life in London and the pivotal role of the pub. The film follows Lotte as she recites her poem while traveling through various London locations, from bustling high streets to serene riverside spots. Her journey, infused with bright, positive visuals and genuine smiles, captures the essence of social connection and everyday moments in the city.

The poem culminates before a meeting with a friend at a Greene King pub, with Lotte affirming that “We can always find a place to meet/To share stories of triumphs and defeat/To soften into each other’s edges/And slip into that sense of sweet social release,”

The campaign also features shorter, rhyming poems across digital OOH and social. Written in a light-hearted and conversational tone, these four-line poems capture relatable scenarios for Londoners and visitors alike, placing them inside Greene King pubs. These vibrant typographic formats will include seasonal and reactive creative in relation to sport and culture.
