Bumble and HBO came together to host a 'Stay Home' activation centered around encouraging people to enjoy the comforts of the indoors and watch a film.
To spotlight HBO's selection of Hollywood hits and classic films, the streaming service and the dating app joined forces to craft a comfortable, luxurious experience inside of a stunning NYC apartment. For the price of a ticket, event-goers received access to view HBO movies, an eating and drinking experience inspired by favorite movie moments and a Bumble and HBO gift bag.
As well as being able to enjoy the many movies available through HBO, ticket holders were also able to make the most of color-coordinated Instagram-friendly interior design setups, such as a wine wall and a tub filled with sweets.
