Heineken Peru Brings Football to the Highest UEFA Champions League Fans

Ogilvy Peru presented a spectacular activation for Heineken as part of the UEFA Champions League and the global campaign 'Cheers to the Real Hardcore Fans' to celebrate real fans.

“For Peruvians, the Champions League is a highly engaging sporting event, and no one wants to miss a single match. Sometimes it overlaps with working hours. This was going to be the case for the semi-final between Real Madrid and Bayern, undoubtedly a highly anticipated match. That's why we installed a giant screen on the 14th floor of Entel to surprise more than a thousand employees so they could enjoy the match minute by minute. This way, we created a brand experience for Heineken and the fans, generating a connection at a relevant moment for them” said Yasu Arakaki, chief creative officer of Ogilvy Peru and Ecuador.

The activation had a great impact. “This is one of the moments of the year where we enjoy the true spirit with the die-hard fans. And this campaign ‘Cheers to the True Fans’ allows us to be close to them. The atmosphere in the offices was very exciting because no one imagined that a screen would appear outside the building to watch the match and be part of Heineken’s commitment to creating the best moments around elite football. The brand experience was very good, and we are very happy, and looking forward to the final on June 1st!” explained Yulia Elchenko, marketing director of Heineken Peru.
