Coca-Cola Freestyle Invites Music Fans to Mix It up with Lady Antebellum
Grammy Award-winning country music group teams up with Coca-Cola Freestyle® to create new beverage mixes and pour on the prizes
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Coca-Cola Freestyle and Lady Antebellum are joining forces to give fans the chance to own the night at one of the multi-PLATINUM selling trio’s upcoming 2015 concerts. When fans visit participating restaurants with Coca-Cola Freestyle now through March 31, they can choose from three Lady Antebellum mixes for a chance to mix it up backstage with the award-winning country group.
Each time fans pour an exclusive mix using Coca-Cola Freestyle, they can receive a code which will allow them to enter for a chance to win a grand prize trip for two to a Lady Antebellum concert of the winner’s choice during their WHEELS UP 2015 TOUR presented by Quicken Loans. Other prizes include Lady Antebellum 747 Deluxe CDs, autographed pictures and downloads of their latest single, “Freestyle.”
“Coca-Cola Freestyle encourages individuality and customization by offering unprecedented choices,” said Joel Bishop, vice president and general manager, Coca-Cola Freestyle, Coca-Cola North America. “In that spirit, we invited Hillary, Charles and Dave of Lady Antebellum to express their personal style and taste by creating their own beverage mixes for their fans to enjoy.”
Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood each created a personal mix available only with Coca-Cola Freestyle, the beverage dispenser that offers more than 100 drink choices. Charles’ Smooth Rollin’ Mix is a sweet blend of Vanilla Coke and Barq’s, while Dave’s Rock ‘n’ Bold Mix pulls together the refreshing flavors of Sprite Vanilla and Seagram’s Ginger Ale. Hillary’s Southern Cherry Mix plays on the artist’s Tennessee roots and combines two of her favorite beverages, Coke Zero Cherry and Coke Zero Raspberry.
Fans can enter for a chance to win in several ways. When they approach Coca-Cola Freestyle dispensers at one of the 600 plus participating restaurants, they should simply look for the special Lady Antebellum promo button on the home screen to choose from the three mixes. After fans pour their beverage of choice, they just need to text the code that appears onscreen to enter the sweepstakes.
Even if they aren’t near a select Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser, Lady Antebellum fans all over the U.S. can still join in the fun beginning March 23 through April 30 when they download the free Coca-Cola Freestyle app. App holders with push notifications enabled will receive an offer in the “my offers” section of the app to add all three Lady Antebellum mixes to their favorites. When they visit any Coca-Cola Freestyle, they can use the QR code within the app to pour any of the exclusive mixes. Fans will then receive push notifications within the app with instructions to enter.
