BMT helps Pilsner Urquell bring The Open to the on-trade

Friday, 01 May 2009

To celebrate Pilsner Urquell’s first year as the Official Beer of The Open Championship, Branded Moments of Truth is helping to bring The Open experience to a wide range of golf enthusiasts throughout the Capital and surrounding regions.

BMT has secured a partnership with leading golf brand Callaway, covering the numerous events occurring throughout the Capital that are helping to activate The Open sponsorship.  Two major outdoor ‘19th Hole’ events are being hosted by Pilsner Urquell on Sat 30th and Sun 31st May in Parson’s Green and between Weds 3rd and Fri 5th June in Broadgate Circle (come along!). 

Media partner talkSPORT will be running live outside broadcasts, hosting a Pilsner Urquell microsite and running listener promotions in the run up to The Open where you can win VIP tickets to Turnberry in July along with a raft of Callaway prizes.

Visitors to the 19th Hole events will be led to the 36 London pubs running bespoke golfing promotions throughout June.  Pilsner Urquell has partnered with Corney & Barrow wine bars and Young’s pubs to offer customers the opportunity to win Callaway golf kits worth £250, practice their putt on a Callaway indoor putting green and much more.

Richard Walker, Brand Manager for Pilsner Urquell said, “Pilsner Urquell’s sponsorship of The Open is the coming together of two great originals.  The Open has defined the way modern golf is played today and it has remained unchanged ever since, in just the same way Pilsner Urquell is brewed using the same high quality ingredients, following  its original brewing process.”
