Heineken turned an office lift into an afterwork bar at One Raffles Quay, one of Singapore’s busiest CBD towers, surprising hundreds of office workers with refreshing beer and helping them switch straight to out-of-office mode!
The First Sip Is Hard To Wait For
On 1 April, the day started almost ordinary for workers at One Raffles Quay, except for a mysterious sign that read: “The First Sip Is Hard To Wait For.” As office workers clocked in, curiosity buzzed through the building.
Then at 5.30pm, just as they were leaving for the day, they found local content creator Denise Teo waiting for them in the lift. In just two hours, 348 of them grabbed a refreshing chilled Heineken with her, as they cheered to the end of the workday.
Dylan Tan, an office worker in the building, shared: “I just ended a long meeting, so being treated with a Heineken in the lift was a nice surprise. I could also see everyone’s mood instantly lift and people started saying cheers with one another.”
Heineken Afterwork Campaign
The stunt kicks off Heineken Singapore’s Afterwork campaign that gets the country to refresh their Afterwork routine by prioritising their first sip ahead of their last e-mail.
