Absolut is the Official Vodka of Coachella and it is helping to connect people virtually in the metaverse with the Absolut.Land experience and in real life with the Find Your 'Best Festival Friend' platform. In partnership with Hey! VINA, the women's friendship app, Absolut is helping aspiring festival-goers make new friends with a swipe.
This takeover specifically designed for new Coachella friends is an in-app experience that helps to build community and take the stress out of making new friends as an adult. As part of this partnership, Absolut is also launching a quiz that allows users to match with like-minded festival friends and also get the chance to win tickets for weekend two.
