Coors Light to expand its biggest party experiences to Reebok Spartan Race community
TORONTO, May 23, 2013 /CNW/ - Coors Light has partnered with Reebok Spartan Race to continue providing consumers with unique experiences like Mystery Mansion, Maxim Golf Tournaments and Silver Bullet Express.
Reebok Spartan Race is the world's leading obstacle race series of "pure primitive craziness" featuring courses combining endurance running and unique obstacles to test one's limits. With races all over the globe and different distances for different levels and styles, Reebok Spartan Race brings with it a community of unwavering athletes. To reward them for their hard work and determination, Coors Light will bring the after-party to them.
Coors Light will sponsor all Canadian Reebok Spartan Race events throughout 2013. This marks the beginning of a relationship between the two companies where Coors Light will start to amplify the brand experience to over 60,000 participants and attendees from coast to coast. Consumers can experience one of several race events held across Canada this year and look forward to celebrating the course completion with a Cold Certified beer.
Running simultaneously this summer is the new Coors Light Mountain Survival national campaign, consisting of over $6-million in prizes to be won through 3.3 million scratch cards in market. The season will end with the grand prize winners being sent to Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia for a weekend adventure they won't soon forget. This once-in-a-lifetime event will take place during the last leg of the Reebok Spartan Race series where athletes and attendees will also be invited to take part in the epic after-party.
The brand idea behind both these programs is the notion of pushing the boundaries of a regular adventure to make for a bigger and more exhilarating experience for consumers. Coors Light is looking to accomplish this by partnering with Reebok Spartan Race to take obstacle race challenges to the next level.
