'I want to take you to a workout class': Influencers are turning brand trips into exclusive real-life fan experiences
Briefly

Brandon Edelman recently launched his own version of an influencer brand trip called the 'Bran Trip,' inviting a few followers to enjoy a luxurious weekend at the Bellevue Hotel, complete with luxury gifts from various brands. This marks a shift from massive influencer meetups to more personalized, intimate gatherings that foster stronger community ties with fans. Influencers like Danielle Pheloung are following suit, organizing events that align with their personal brands, focusing on unique experiences rather than mere photo-ops or quick interactions.
The Bran Trip allowed fans to experience a lavish influencer-like weekend, highlighting the changing nature of influencer-fan interactions towards more community-building events.
Influencers are now curating intimate gatherings that strengthen community ties instead of large public meetups, enriching the overall fan experience beyond mere selfies.
