The Brief

Three cities. Three days. 500+ graduates.

Every year during National Apprenticeship Week, Mitchells & Butlers host three large-scale graduation events across Manchester, Birmingham, and London. Over 500 people attend across the week to celebrate their achievements, receiving their certificate in a mortar board and gown in front of their peers, celebrating with their brands and divisions, and taking part in interactive activities, networking, and a big buffet lunch.

Yoorcast has been the trusted content partner for these events for three consecutive years, from 2024 through to 2026. The brief covers the full content operation: ceremony photography, candid event shots, video production, testimonials, interviews, and logistics support, delivering a constant stream of content throughout the week.

Graduation Week Roundup

What We Deliver

A full content operation, not just a photographer.

The scope goes well beyond turning up with a camera. This is a multi-day, multi-city content operation that delivers a bank of assets ready for immediate and long-term use.

Ceremony & Candid Photography

Over 1,500 ceremony award photos each year for individuals to download and keep, plus around 30 candid photos per event for Mitchells & Butlers to use across social channels, internal communications, and to showcase the events online.

Video Production & Interviews

Full video capture throughout each day, including testimonials, interviews, and candid b-roll. One video per event is delivered within 48 hours so that content is constantly being pushed onto social and internal channels as the week progresses.

Logistics & Courier Support

The production van is used to courier all event equipment from city to city throughout the week, ensuring a seamless setup at each venue. This removes a significant logistical burden from the client's team during an already busy period.

The Scale

Three years and counting.

This is not a one-off engagement. Yoorcast has been the content partner for these graduation events for three consecutive years, building a deep understanding of the format, the audience, and what Mitchells & Butlers need from the content. That continuity means the operation runs smoother every year, the quality keeps improving, and the client has a reliable partner they can trust to deliver under pressure.

The content produced across these events gives Mitchells & Butlers a bank of assets they can use indefinitely, covering a range of topics based on the conversations captured with their graduates. From social media to internal cascades, the output supports their people agenda long after the events are over.
