Prague Week: Social-First Event Coverage That Sparked 1.3M Views
Overview
In October 2025, I spent one intense, inspiring week in Prague as both a competitor and the social media manager for the leading UK tap dance company, Tap Attack. The goal wasn’t just to capture the experience — it was to test how live event storytelling, trend-led short-form content and community engagement could accelerate digital visibility across platforms.
​
The result? 1.3 million profile views in just 7 days, driven by social-first narrative design, quick-turn content creation, and audience-led UGC sparks.
Why this worked...
-
Community pride around international competition
-
Share-friendly personality content
-
Real-time momentum that turned audiences into amplifiers
-
Multi-platform consistency across TikTok, Instagram, and founder/faculty storytelling
-
Fast interaction times that protected momentum rather than losing it
