Budweiser Kicks Off New 'Celebration in the Making' Global Platform
To inspire celebrations from the start, Budweiser is officially kicking off the platform with a new film set to an iconic score, and announces the return of its acclaimed 'Bring Home The Bud' campaign to deliver the ultimate prize of free beer for the winning club* and its supporters. Budweiser will also leverage exclusive FIFA-created 'Celebration of the Match' content featuring the top celebrations from each matchday, and has released new LTO tournament-inspired packaging and designs on its products.
'In partnership with FIFA, Budweiser has been celebrating football culture and its legions of fans for nearly 40 years, and we're proud to launch this global platform to match the energy, scale and excitement of this unique competition,' said Richard Oppy, Global President, Premium Company at AB InBev, brewer of Budweiser. 'Whether it's being in a local pub at match kickoff or being in a packed stadium cheering the return of a champion club, Budweiser will be there to ensure every moment of this FIFA Club World Cup feels like an epic celebration in the making.'
Bring Home The Bud
Budweiser's celebrated 'Bring Home The Bud' campaign first debuted during the FIFA World Cup 2022™ and then again for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™, giving fans of those winning countries a celebration fitting of a world champion: free beer for those of a legal drinking age.
The 'Bring Home The Bud' football tradition continues this tournament, as the signature Budweiser-branded red beer crates are already making appearances in cities across Brazil, UK, and China to build excitement for the ultimate payoff for the winning club* and its home supporters.
Details about how 'Bring Home The Bud' will come to life for the winning club will continue to unfold throughout the tournament. To learn more, visit www.Budweiser.com/FIFAClubWorldCup.
Unleashing Celebration in the Making
Budweiser channels the passion and raw energy of football fans in its new film, 'ThunderBud,' set to AC/DC's legendary 'Thunderstruck.' The spot captures the moment a Budweiser can cracks open in a crowded stadium, unleashing an electrifying anthem that raises fans and players alike toward victory.
In a first-of-its-kind integration, Budweiser will celebrate standout moments on the pitch through 'Celebration of the Match' content created by FIFA for each matchday, which Budweiser will amplify across social media. Fans will have the chance to vote online for their favorite highlights — whether it's an unbelievable goal or a game-saving goalkeeper stop — tying the emotional pinnacle of each match to the idea that fans are the ones who power the game.
Watch 'ThunderBud' on YouTube, and follow all the 'Celebration of the Match' action across social media at @budweiser and @budfootball on Instagram, Facebook and X during the tournament.
The Beer of Celebration
Unique for this year's tournament, Budweiser has launched limited-edition LTO packaging at retail for Budweiser and Budweiser Zero with an updated crest and creed, crafted to include bespoke gold elements for FIFA Club World Cup 2025™. Budweiser Zero will keep its same design while featuring FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ branding, now with a white base to signal its no-alcohol badge of honor.
As the Official Beer of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™, Budweiser continues its legacy of championing football and fan passion on the world's biggest stages, elevating celebrations wherever the game is played.
About Budweiser
Budweiser is a globally iconic lager born from a bold vision. In 1876, founder Adolphus Busch set out to create the United States' first truly national beer brand – brewed to be universally popular and transcend regional tastes. Today, Budweiser is recognized as the world's second most valuable beer brand in Kantar's BrandZ global 2025 rankings, enjoyed in more than 80 countries and brewed with the same unwavering commitment to quality and consistency. Each batch of Budweiser stays true to the same family recipe used by five generations of Busch family brewmasters. Budweiser is a medium-bodied, flavorful, crisp beer with layers of premium American hop aromas, brewed for the perfect balance of flavor and refreshment. Budweiser is made using time-honored methods including "kraeusening" for natural carbonation and Beechwood aging, which results in unparalleled balance and character.
