On 13th June 2024, Mercury Communications celebrated a momentous milestone – our 7th birthday! To mark this special occasion, our incredible team, past and present collaborators, and esteemed clients gathered on the summer terrace of our Grosvenor Street offices.

As guests arrived, they were welcomed with a sparkling glass of Nyetimber and delicious canapés. Chatter filled the terrace, as people reconnected, shared stories, and reminisced about Mercury’s journey so far. Highlights of the night included bubbles and a mountain of Mercury cupcakes for guests to enjoy and take away with them as an additional thank you.
“I can't quite believe it, seven years have elapsed since sitting at my dining room table toiling solo...fast forward to today and I've got a dream team sitting in an office on Grosvenor Street in Mayfair creating standout campaigns for a wonderful global roster of clients.”
She also fondly remembers some of the highlights: “We’ve held media polo masterclasses in Marrakesh to promote Ritz-Carlton Residences, we have hosted a Q&A with the world’s no. 1 polo player Adolfo Cambiaso and no. 1 female Nina Clarkin, we launched the Chedi Luštica Bay with Nile Rogers performing and we supported an interior design studio on the story of the most expensive apartment ever sold in Dubai.
We adored the partnerships between The Craft Irish Whiskey Co. and Fabergé, which achieved a sale of $2m (the most expensive whisk(e)y ever sold), and collaborating with Bang & Olufsen for Diageo’s Johnnie Walker Blue Label along with Steven Bartlett, Founder of a Diary of a CEO.
Three of our personal favourite press trips have been visiting bohemian hideaway The Nautilus Maldives, launching the luxury high-performance day boats SAY CARBON Yachts in Marbella, and revealing the Mercedes-Benz Places residences in Downtown Dubai to 20,000 guests. There’s certainly never been a dull moment!”
The celebration wasn't just about looking back; it was also about looking forward to the bright future that lies ahead for Mercury Communications. As we embark on our eighth year, we are filled with gratitude for our amazing team and the unwavering support from our clients, family& friends, brand partners and suppliers. We look forward to seeing where Mercury, the Roman messenger god, takes us next!
