Today marks the end of the first week of December! Again Christmas is around the corner! What a way to celebrate if without a beer?! Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc, the modern, fruity and refreshing wheat beer, is turning the year-end celebrations up a notch the French way by launching its ‘Pause for a Blue Christmas’ campaign, encouraging Malaysians to hit the pause button and enjoy every little yet precious moments this festive season.
The launch event held at Nicsmann 1940s by Lewré on the Park in Starling Mall brought together 350 media and guests for a Blue Christmas celebration, iconic to Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc’s blue facade.
At the event, a magnificent blue Christmas tree made entirely out of Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc blue bottles came to life in all its glory via a ‘Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony’ officiated by Lars Lehmann, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia. (Guys, it really blue ok? He has enchanting blue eyes! :P)
“In July this year, we launched ‘Pause for Le Moment’, a memorable and successful campaign which allowed our consumers to appreciate all the little quality moments life has to offer just like the French do. This time around, for Christmas, we wanted to advocate the same message but in a festive manner to create an equally memorable brand experience that is highly ownable and distinctive to Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc” Lehmann said. He adds, “Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc advocates making deliberate choices about what we want from life and how we want to spend our time spreading the Christmas cheer and relishing this festive season with our loved ones.”
Emulating ‘Christmas à la française’ where the festive season stretches out over weeks, ‘Pause for a Blue Christmas’ will see different initiatives rolled out early in the month of December right up to Christmas day itself. Among exciting and engaging activities lined up during the campaign month includes a once-in-a-lifetime chance of being in a giant roving snow globe.
Set to visit selected bars and restaurants, this unique opportunity will allow fans to experience the holiday fun in a ‘magical wonderland’ with Christmas icons, including a Blue Santa and Santarinas. Fans will be able to capture their picturesque moments during these visits as well as enjoy exclusive Christmas promotions at these outlets throughout December 2017.

Opened to the public, the party allows fans of Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc to be fully immersed in the spirit of Christmas through the concept of a ‘Blue Christmas Town‘, complete with a majestic 18-foot-tall Christmas tree made entirely out of 1,700 Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc blue bottles, jazz performances and carolers singing Christmas tunes joyously among others.
