Over 2,000 football fans and Guinness lovers gathered for an action-packed evening filled with excitement as Guinness Malaysia crowned its first grand prize winner Gregory Isaac at the Guinness Matchday event held at Sentul Depot, Kuala Lumpur on Oct 19, 2024.
The sheer joy on Gregory Isaac’s face was unmistakable as his name was drawn from hundreds of entries, securing the once-in-a-lifetime prize – a fully paid trip for two to watch a Premier League match in England in April 2025.
Guinness is the official beer of the Premier League.
The excitement was palpable throughout the night as fans bonded over their love and passion for football and Guinness, revelling in the spirit of togetherness.
Football-themed activities kept the energy and excitement high, with prizes that included complimentary pints of Guinness, signed jerseys from football legends, customisable Guinness jerseys and other limited-edition merchandise.
The event also featured Guinness-infused dishes crafted by chefs behind Kitchen Mafia, Tipsy Boar, Kao BBQ, Yat Sing and Caketella.
“Guinness Matchday is about bringing people together through shared passions. Whether you’re a football fanatic or a Guinness lover, it’s a celebration of the perfect blend of the beautiful game and the perfect pint,” said Heineken Malaysia Bhd wheatbeer, stout and Diageo brands marketing manager Shaun Lim.
Lim said, “Guinness is always looking for new and exciting ways to bring our brand values of power, goodness and communion to life in an engaging and immersive way.
“Our season-long Guinness x Premier League celebration is the perfect occasion for fans to come together for an authentic Guinness experience and create unforgettable memories.”
Fans watched the live viewing of two Premier League matches, Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United and Manchester United vs Brentford, broadcast on a massive 8m x 14m screen.
There will be two more grand prize winners to be selected at the nationwide Guinness viewing parties at bars and pubs before the end of the League season.
Guinness x Premier League and all related promotions and activities are strictly only for non-Muslims aged 21 and above.
Guinness Malaysia reminds all patrons to enjoy responsibly and to never drink and drive.
