The brand has teamed up with America’s Challenger for the 37th America’s Cup, with whom they share a history of tradition and innovation, as well as the daring attitude embodied in the crew. To mark the sponsorship, San Miguel has launched the “Seekers Boat”, an installation that will come to Valencia, bringing the spirit and excitement of the America’s Cup to new audiences. Inspired by those who seek extraordinary experiences, San Miguel joins the New York Yacht Club American Magic Challenger in the 37th America’s Cup to promote an attitude of daring, embodied by the team’s crew, with whom they share a desire to explore the unknown and reach new horizons.

To raise awareness of both the competition and the team among the general public, the brand has created a series of experiences in different parts of Spain that link the world of sailing with the beer tradition and which will be reflected in the “Seekers Boat”, a unique installation that will travel around three cities on the Mediterranean coast: Malaga, Valencia and Barcelona. This tour will bring the excitement of the America’s Cup to local communities of great relevance to San Miguel prior to the big event.

The “Seekers Boat” will be installed at the Marina Norte event venue in Valencia from 14 to 20 July. Inside the installation, visitors will be able to enjoy content about the beer that will reveal the history and innovation behind San Miguel. There will also be a section dedicated to the New York Yacht Club American Magic, where visitors will be able to learn all about the team and its cutting-edge technology. To convey this, the brand has created immersive experiences, such as a sailing simulator where participants will have to pedal in order to lift the foil. The “Seekers Boat” experience will culminate with a tasting of the different San Miguel beers, which can be attended by appointment at: sanmiguel.com.

Beyond the exhibition space, the “Seekers Boat” will have a terrace to relax and enjoy a beer paired with local products, and a photo opportunity space to capture unique moments. In addition, during the evening, a projection of images of the New York Yacht Club American Magic will be shown outside the boat’s installation in two screenings, the first at 22:30h and the second at 23:00h.

This event is inspired by those who seek extraordinary experiences and who have the restlessness as a driving force to always go one step further. Through the sponsorship of the New York Yacht Club American Magic, Cervezas San Miguel, with its international leadership, brings a world-class competition to places that normally would not have been able to enjoy all that the America’s Cup has to offer. And it does so by creating unique experiences inspired by the New York Yacht Club American Magic and the brewing tradition, which seek to awaken people’s curiosity and enrich their lives.
