Lion is kicking off its support for the Blues at this year’s State of Origin series with a new brand campaign for Tooheys via Host/Havas that reminds everyone to show they are true blue with a Tooheys NEW.
The campaign highlights that with the Blues experiencing something of a resurgence in the Origin arena, the Blue’s spirit is becoming ever more contagious.
The campaign launched in film and is supported with OOH.
Host/Havas ECD Jon Austin said, “I’m a Kiwi born and bred, but in recent years I’ve found myself getting truer and bluer. Or as Margie so eloquently puts it, up the Blues.”
Marketing Manager, Lion, Chris Allan added, “our partnership with the Blues is always a great opportunity to remind people of our proud roots in NSW and our passion for our home state. Here’s hoping Margie, Bev, Pam, Betty and Hindy can get the boys over the line this year with the rest of NSW.”
