Grand Marnier uses AR to spice up real world events

Grand Marnier uses AR to spice up real world events

From AdWeek

To support its “Grand Encounter” campaign that began in early 2023, alcohol brand Grand Marnier kicked off a series of real-world experiential events featuring music, tastings and an AR activation.

After debuting in New York Nov. 15-17, the “Grand Encounter by Grand Marnier” experience will travel to Houston for events from Nov. 29-Dec. 1. The roughly 90-minute event features a mix of music, art and drinks, and is free to anyone over 21, though a reservation is required.

To enhance the events, Grand Marnier worked with augmented reality company Blippar to bring attendees an AR experience that allows them to view a bottle of the beverage through AR and encourages them to visit a sign-up page to receive newsletters and more.
