(SYDNEY) 29 April, 2002 – With soccer madness about to kick in with this year’s World Cup, Holiday Inn and The Coca-Cola Company are giving fans the chance to catch the excitement of the World Cup in the comfort of their favourite Holiday Inn hotel – and the opportunity to win a Soccer Suite Party to boot!
Guests who stay at a Holiday Inn hotel before 30 June, 2002 anywhere in the Asia Pacific region on a Holiday Inn Best Break rate – which includes breakfast for two as part of the package – will become instantly eligible to participate in the Holiday Inn Soccer Best Breaks promotion.
Holiday Inn is partnering with major World Cup sponsor, The Coca-Cola Company to give soccer fans the chance to catch the excitement of the World Cup in the comfort of their favourite Holiday Inn hotel. Simply stay at any Holiday Inn hotel in Asia Pacific before 30 June on a Best Breaks rate and you will automatically receive a Tear and Win voucher.
The voucher guarantees guests will be an instant winner of either a Holiday Inn soccer ball or a Coca-Cola soccer ball keychain, in addition to receiving a free 6-pack of Coca-Cola from the minibar for every day of their stay. Guests will also have the chance to win one of 15 Soccer Suite Parties in Asia Pacific.
This prize includes one night’s Suite accommodation for two and a catered party for up to ten people to watch the live World Cup telecast in the suite – with as much Coca-Cola as they can drink.
“Just because you can’t go to the matches doesn’t mean you can’t be part of the event,” said Six Continents Hotels’ Director of Marketing for Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific, Michael Meade.
“Two of the world’s biggest brands, Holiday Inn and Coca-Cola have come together to support one of the most highly-played sports in the world. As Holiday Inn is a global brand and a strong supporter of sport, it’s a pleasure to be able to give our guests the chance to participate in World Cup fever in a place where they can relax and be themselves,” Mr Meade said.
