BIG ENTERS PARTNERSHIP WITH PIZZA HUT
BIG is delighted to announce that Pizza Hut joins the BIG Family as their newest long-term partner, supporting their League of Legends and Trackmania divisions!
BIG’s League of Legends division has already carved out a name for itself in esports, being the only German team to win the prestigious European Masters tournament, with back to back Prime League trophies and three Premier Tour titles under their belt as well. After solid results in both Prime League splits this year, they are currently ranked as the third best team in the circuit. The Trackmania duo of massa and GranaDy have also had an outstanding year, finishing the second stage of the Trackmania World Tour as vice-champions, and recently qualifying for the biggest tournament of the year – Ascension 2023 – in front of thousands of people.
Besides supporting BIG’s League Of Legends & Trackmania divisions, Pizza Hut will take center stage in BIG’s digital ecosystem, seamlessly integrated into the organization’s social media platforms as BIG’s official Pizza partner. Fans can anticipate an engaging experience on Twitch as well, with Pizza Hut featured in animations during player broadcasts.
An array of exciting activations await fans, who can look forward to community nights, where they’ll have the chance to face off against BIG’s professional players in Pizza Hut-themed gaming sessions. For those eager to meet their esports idols in person, exclusive player meet and greets will offer a money-can’t-buy opportunity.
Finally, fans can expect a collection of exciting giveaways and raffles, sponsored by Pizza Hut. As part of this partnership, special emphasis will be placed on the Pizza Hut Melts, an exciting new product series from the restaurant chain.
