Coors Light Unveils New Packaging at Winter Wonderland-Themed Party

Mitra Sorrells
September 22, 2010
MillerCoors celebrated the introduction of the new Coors Light resealable aluminum pint can at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa on Thursday night. The invitation-only party for more than 400 people, dubbed the “Coldest Party on Earth,” had the hotel’s pool area converted into a winter wonderland complete with fake snow and ice sculptures to highlight the brand’s focus on providing cold beverages.
 
“Tampa is our largest distributor market in the 11-state Southeast region,” said Evan Cohen, MillerCoors' field marketing director for the Southeast. “We thought it would be a lot of fun to have the dichotomy of throwing the coldest party in town in Florida.”

Showorks Inc. created the wintry atmosphere with falling snow, ice bars, ice sculptures, and cubed high-top tables resembling blocks of ice. The company used cool tones of blue, white, and silver in the floral centerpieces. Attendees entered on a white carpet, which represented ice. After sunset, designers used blue lighting to illuminate the pool area, with images of white snowflakes projected onto the deck.

Radio partner 97x WSUN-FM promoted the party on-air during the preceding weeks, but kept the location secret. DJs held a contest for listeners to guess the location and win an invitation to the private party. MillerCoors also donated a dollar to a local charity for each correct guess. The night before the event, Atlas Specialty Lighting revealed the location by illuminating the side of the 12-story hotel with a huge image of Coors Light's new packaging.

In keeping with the icy theme, MillerCoors also raffled a trip for one attendee and a guest to ice hotel Hotel de Glace in Quebec.
