A premiere refers to the first public presentation or introduction of an artistic work or product. Originating from the French word ‘premier’, it denotes an event of significance, marking the beginning of something new. Premieres are prevalent in various fields, such as film, theater, music, and fashion, each presenting a new piece of work to the public for the first time. Types of premieres differ based on location and platform, ranging from World to International Online premieres. These events play a critical role in marketing and promotion, often involving media coverage, celebrities, and social media[1] to generate anticipation and attention. Premieres have also evolved with the digital age, with online premieres becoming increasingly important, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
