WIN: 1 of 5 Heineken® 0.0 F1 Movie hampers up for grabs! Valued at R5 000!
Win 1 of 5 Heineken 0.0 hampers including DOUBLE tickets for the F1 Movie at any IMAX cinema PLUS snacks for two, valued at R1 000 each! Heineken® 0.0 takes pole position at the F1® movie premiere South Africa, 27 June 2025: The South African premiere of F1® THE MOVIE was more than just an opulent 'green' carpet meets racetrack moment. With Heineken® 0.0 at the heart of it all, the night brought together friends, fans, and familiar faces to show that you don't need alcohol to enjoy the moment — just good company, great storytelling, and a drink that keeps you in the driver's seat. From track to theatre, Heineken® 0.0 took centre stage at the IMAX Mall of Africa, blending seamlessly into the thrill of Formula 1® and the sophistication of film — all while reinforcing a modern, inclusive message: there are zero reasons needed to choose moderation. Hosted by celebrity F1 fan and radio host, Anele Mdoda, the theatre was packed with South African movers and shakers, including the likes of Girlie Lukhele, Khuli Chana, Bonko and Lesego khoza, Zakes Bantwini, Karabo Didi and so many more. 'As a brand, we've always believed culture has the power to shape behaviour. Tonight's premiere is proof of that,' said Warrick Wyngaard, Marketing Communication Manager for Heineken® South Africa. 'This filmbrings together emotion, adrenaline, and culture. The same ingredients make Heineken® 0.0 such a natural fit. We're leading the conversation around moderation in a way that feels aspirational, modern, and completely in step with how people are choosing to live and socialise today.' Heineken® 0.0 was announced as an official global partner of Apple Original Films' F1® THE MOVIE, a collaboration brought to life with a new campaign directed by the movie's director/producer himself, Joseph Kosinski, and which features the film's stars, Brad Pitt and Damson Idris. Heineken® 0.0 features directly in the film, reinforcing its natural place in the world of Formula 1® – a world the brand has been in partnership with since 2016. With F1® THE MOVIE set to hit cinemas nationwide on 27th June, Wyngaard says that Heineken® 0.0 is leading the conversation about shifting drinking norms, featuring in cultural spaces where audiences are already reconsidering how they socialise. 'Lifestyles are changing and drinking habits are too. More people are choosing low and no-alcohol options for a night, for a lifestyle shift, or just because. We're adapting to give people the freedom to choose what suits them best,' continues Wyngaard. For Wyngaard the premiere wasn't just a first look at F1® THE MOVIE, it was a bold expression of where culture is headed. 'It was a proud moment to be there as Heineken® 0.0, and to have the backing from the global brand team as well as many local celebs and media personalities. This really showcased the incredible transformation in societal views we are witnessing.' From racing fans to film lovers, guests left not only excited for the nationwide release but inspired to embrace moderation and celebrate life's moments with confidence, intention, and a cold Heineken® 0.0 in hand.

Heineken® 0.0 Hits the Big Screen with F1® The Movie, Driving a New Narrative Around Moderation
Damson Idris, a Heineken 0.0 and the set of F1® THE MOVIE. Who's driving? Brad Pitt, of course. A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available in this link. AMSTERDAM, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heineken® 0.0 has been announced as an official partner of Apple Original Films' F1® THE MOVIE, a collaboration bought to life with a new campaign directed by the movie's director/producer himself, Joseph Kosinski, and which features the film's stars, Brad Pitt and Damson Idris. The campaign will launch ahead of the film's much-anticipated global release on 25 June, from Warner Bros. Pictures. With Heineken® 0.0 also featuring directly in the film, the partnership marks the brand's natural place in the world of FORMULA 1®, having been a sponsor since 2016. As F1® experiences a cultural rise like no other, F1® THE MOVIE is set to be the film event of the summer, and Heineken® 0.0 is right at the heart of the action, both on and off the track. The campaign from Heineken® 0.0 will see the release of a spot featuring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris, created to challenge outdated assumptions around alcohol and socialising. The content reflects how modern audiences are rethinking what 'choices' looks like today. In one standout scene, we see Damson's character, Joshua Pearce, enjoying a Heineken® 0.0, assuming he's about to drive, when expectations are reversed and in fact it is Brad's character, Sonny Hayes, getting behind the wheel. Designed to echo the brand's 'When Driving, Or Not' message and delivered within the construct of the film's characters, it supports Heineken® 0.0's wider approach to normalising moderation, showing that enjoying a great 0.0 beer doesn't need a reason. The collaboration continues Heineken®'s commitment to showing up where culture is happening, in ways that are authentic, entertaining, and socially relevant. In the lead-up to the film's release, fans can expect exclusive content and behind-the-scenes access via Heineken® channels, bringing them closer not just to F1® THE MOVIE, but to the wider cultural conversation about moderation, inclusion, and changing social norms. 'At Heineken®, we believe culture has the power to shape behaviour,' said Nabil Nasser, Global Head of Heineken® Brand. 'By becoming part of F1® THE MOVIE, we're taking the conversation around moderation into a space that's global, influential, and emotionally engaging. This partnership isn't just about visibility – it's about making alcohol-free choices feel natural, accepted and relevant in the moments that matter, especially in social settings. As leaders in the 0.0 category, we're committed to redefine what it means to choose moderation today.' Damson Idris said: 'F1® is intense, it's fast, it's high-stakes, and it's full of pressure. But that's what makes it exciting. This short film flips the script — not just on racing, but on how we celebrate and connect. Choosing a 0.0 isn't about holding back, it's about deciding what works for you and owning it, whatever the moment.' Joseph Kosinski said: 'This film isn't just about the speed and spectacle of Formula 1, it's about the emotion and culture around it. Every detail mattered, including our partnerships. We wanted collaborators who understood the world we were building and the shift in how people connect with sport today. Their presence in the film feels authentic, and that was essential to me as a storyteller.' The F1® THE MOVIE partnership builds on Heineken®'s longstanding global sponsorships including Formula 1™, the UEFA Champions League, and the US Open - all platforms to champion moderation and support more inclusive drinking choices among fans worldwide. Further campaign and film details will be announced over the coming weeks.

Heineken® Joins Forces with Joe Jonas and Global Influencers to Help Tackle Digital Overload and Get Social ‘Off Socials'
Global superstar Joe Jonas and some of the world's most-followed content creators joined forces at an exclusive event in New York City last night to demonstrate that connecting in real life is one of the easiest ways to disconnect from the sometimes overwhelming world of social media New York Joe Jonas Digital Overload New York Joe Jonas Digital OverloadNEW YORK, April 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer, songwriter, actor and producer, Joe Jonas teamed up with Dude With Sign (Seth Phillips) in New York City last night to create their latest social post - only this time they did so completely off their socials. Stepping away from their online feeds and into the real world, Jonas and Phillips - who have over 35 million followers between them - were joined by Victoria's Secret models Martha Hunt and Graice Carvalho, Yankees pitcher Luke Weaver, socialite Ivy Getty and high-profile influencers including Lil Cherry and Paul Olima at the 'Off Socials' event at Bleecker Street Bar. In an ironic slant on the digital sphere they dominate, Jonas and Phillips posed in windows decked out to look like Instagram reels to highlight a simple message: the best way to disconnect from the sometimes overwhelming world of social media is to connect in real life. The event celebrated the launch of a new Heineken® campaign - #SocialOffSocials - following the revelation that half of adults globally (52%) are overwhelmed by the pressure to keep up with social media. In fact, 62% (and 75% of Gen Z) say despite being able to connect with anyone instantly via their phone, they can feel lonely. In the spirit of going offline, Joe Jonas debuted his new track 'Heart by Heart' at the event - using the world's oldest social network, the bar - ahead of releasing it on digital channels. He also filmed part of the new music video at the event in front of the offline crowd to showcase the power of real-life moments over digital ones. Heineken® has joined forces with Jonas and the creators in its latest advertising campaign - launching next week - dramatizing how they would react to empty social media feeds if more people were out having a good time IRL. Speaking at the event, Joe Jonas said: 'It's so easy to fall into the habit of doomscrolling on your phone - I've definitely been there. We live in a world where everyone's glued to their social media feeds, so I'm excited to be part of this Heineken campaign encouraging people to put their phones down and connect in real life. I chose to debut my new song offline and in-person because it felt like the perfect time to return to what music is really about: connecting with people. The crowd was so real, so present, and completely locked into the music - that is something you can't experience by watching on social media.' By teaming up with figures like Jonas and Dude with Sign whose lives are deeply embedded in online culture, Heineken® - which has always championed quality socializing - playfully conveys that stepping away from social media makes for a more rewarding social life. Studying the screen time of 17,000 adults worldwide*, Heineken® uncovered that the average person now spends approximately 5 hours and 48 minutes per day looking at their device. That equates to a massive 127,020 minutes a year - a full 88 days. The global report into scrolling and socializing habits found that three in five people (59%) across all age-groups say that the amount of time they spend on their phone has increased in the past year. Additional analysis by global research company Statista found that time spent socializing IRL has decreased by 35% over the past 24 years, whereas since the introduction of mobile based social media platforms such as Instagram (2010) and Snapchat (2011), the time we've spent scrolling has more than doubled (+54%)**. Now, nearly half of all adults (47%) would describe themselves as 'always online' according to the Heineken® report and that the stream of notifications they receive is 'constant' (60%). As a result, half (51%) agree that their social battery can feel drained by the amount of time they spend speaking to people online - rising to almost two-thirds (62%) among Gen Z. However, an overwhelming 79% agreed that when they are out socializing they look at their phone less, proving that disconnecting from social media is easier when you are engaging in a more refreshing social life. Two thirds (64%) of people said they wish they could go back to a time when people socialized without smartphones. Nabil Nasser, Global Head of Heineken®, said: 'At Heineken®, we've always believed that the best connections are created in real life. I'm a big fan and participant on social media, but it's also important to take a break and experience things IRL too. This campaign is a gentle reminder that stepping away from our screens can lead to more refreshing and meaningful social experiences, and help us feel less overwhelmed by the constant notifications on our phones. Working with creators - who are by their nature always online - to highlight the solution may seem ironic, but they too realize it's about balance and were as eager as us to encourage IRL socializing. So many people feel overwhelmed by the pressure of constant online engagement, so we want to show how easy it can be to take a break from social media.' When you get social, you get off your socials.
