Six VR Race Chairs, One Purpose

The event featured six of our VR Racing Chairs, giving attendees an authentic F1-inspired experience, all within a controlled, stationary setup. Unlike traditional racing simulators, these chairs offered the feel of high-speed action through advanced visuals and sound, without the need for motion simulation. This allowed guests to fully engage in the racing experience, bringing Heineken’s 0.0 campaign message to the forefront in an accessible, exhilarating way.

Where Racing Meets Responsibility

As an F1 sponsor, Heineken has long championed responsible drinking, and their 0.0 campaign shines a spotlight on enjoying life’s thrills without alcohol. Through our VR Racing Chairs, attendees could compete in fast-paced simulated laps, driving home the idea that excitement doesn’t need alcohol. Each participant was encouraged to race against the clock, fostering friendly competition that tied into the high-octane atmosphere of the F1 circuit.

Uniting Fans Around a Shared Experience

By collaborating with Milhouse, Heineken 0.0 found the perfect platform to engage F1 fans in a way that seamlessly aligned with their values. This VR activation wasn’t just an event; it was a brand message in action, uniting Heineken’s commitment to responsibility with Milhouse’s expertise in creating unforgettable gaming experiences. The result was an engaging, impactful campaign that brought Heineken’s brand promise to life—no motion required.
