Michelob ULTRA has always strived to market itself as a brand for people with active lifestyles — so, it isn't surprising that the company recently announced its role as the exclusive beer sponsor for Team USA at the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris 2024. This sponsorship includes a comprehensive campaign featuring prominent Team USA athletes and specially designed packaging. Michelob ULTRA aims to enhance the fan experience by offering an insider’s view of the games through social media content, special appearances, and promotional events in Paris and the U.S.
The brand will launch two new TV commercials and introduce new bottle designs featuring the Team USA Olympic emblem. Additionally, Michelob ULTRA will host various activations, including watch parties and advertising integrations during the games. By becoming the first brand to participate in the Order of Ikkos Ceremony, which honors the coaches of Team USA medalists, Michelob ULTRA provides fans with unique access to athletes celebrating their victories.
