As
the UEFA Champions League 2013/2014 season hits the knockout phase,
the stage is now set for Heineken®, the World’s leading
international premium lager beer to give Nigerian football fans the
opportunity to feel and experience the UEFA Champions League Trophy.
The trophy - which will be in Nigeria from March 13, 2014 with the
brand ambassador Ruud Gullit, an ex-international and football star
and coach, will remain in the country till March 16, 2014.
The
UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour has been presented for eight
consecutive years by Heineken® international, a UEFA Champions
League partner. In 2013, Heineken® will give football fans in
Nigeria, Argentina and Vietnam the chance to see and get up close to
the prestigious trophy. Like Heineken®, the trophy is a true global
icon. It represents the excellence of the UEFA Champions League
worldwide and the ultimate achievement in European club football.
In
order to make the event memorable, various events and activities have
been lined up by the brand to give consumers, trade partners as well
as the media first hand contact with the trophy which is making its
tour of Nigeria for the second time after it did so in 2009.
In
a statement, Mr. Walter Drenth, Marketing Director Nigerian Breweries
Plc, said “the Champions league trophy tour is an activity unique
to Heineken®. No other brand is capable of holding the trophy tour
outside of Europe.”
He
promised football fans that the brand - in consonance with its
tagline of “Opening Your World”- would provide an experience that
only Heineken® can deliver its consumers.
On
August 31, 2013, Heineken® announced the extension of its
sponsorship with the UEFA Champions League. The new agreement means
that the brand will continue as an official partner of the world's
most prestigious club football competition up to and including the
2017 / 2018 season.
Consumers
could
also text TrophyTour, Name, Age, and State to 20388 to participate in
the Heineken UEFA Champions League Quiz (SMS Game) to win prizes
including chances to Meet the Trophy, Ruud Gullit, Christian Karembu
and other Football legends.
