In 2009, Melissa completed 30 years and a huge celebration was planned and organised in order to commemorate this date in great style.

An exhibition called “Me Melissa”, under the direction of Érika Palomino, was held between the 28^th of October and the 15^th of November, 2009, in which Solar Real, in the Santa Teresa neighbourhood in Rio de Janeiro, served as the perfect location for setting the Melissa’s future course.

The Grafia team did not miss out on the preview of this celebration on the 27^th of October in the form of an exclusive party for guests. Obviously, we covered the event by relaying all its details to the followers of @sigamelissa with the special help of the brand’s fan bloggers.

Even those who weren’t there were able to see a photo preview, in real time, of what was awaiting everyone in the Santa Tereza neighbourhood. Certainly the most special events for 2009!

The results were great: before publicising the coverage of the party and the award ceremony for Melissas during the event, we had 6624 followers and after two days this grew by 7.6% to 7126 followers.
